Class Overview - All Levels
All that you need to know about marbling on paper and fabric (silk and cotton). Also we’ll talk about working with metallic paint (on paper) and how to create your own book cloth. We’ll discuss color theory and explore simple (and effective) ways to use the color wheel to create beautiful combinations of colors. The last day students will create their own marbled scarves. The goal is to marble 20-30 sheets of paper and 10 fabrics plus two silk scarves (15 x 60 inch).
