Workshop: New Combing Techniques

New Combing Techniques: Build on Your Traditional Marbling Skills Do you want to expand the number of patterns you can do and give some of your favs a new look?

Workshop: Intro to Marbling

Marbling on paper is an ancient art that has survived to this day. And now it’s your turn to learn how to marble! We will teach you how to drop paint onto thickened water, rake through the paint with special combs and transfer your design onto paper to create awesome patterns. In this class you will learn three basic patterns that are the building blocks to more complex patterns.

All supplies included.
