Join us for this intermediate level course that builds off the skills learned in our Intro to Marbling class (which is not a prerequisite, but certainly a good first step if you've never marbled before).
Our Special Techniques class skips over the foundational basics of set-up, and instead explores specific tricks and tools used in more advanced marbling. We'll focus on how to create wowing swirls and eye-popping patterns that are more structured and less experimental than those used in our intro course.
Participants will explore with color, mixtures, and style: results will vary from person to person and sheet to sheet in this fun, casual evening. Everyone will prep their own bath and colors, and use a set of unique tools for personalized results! All quality papers and specialty inks are provided and students can expect to make a collection of 8 to 10 sheets of beautiful hand-marbled paper ready to be used in their next great project.
(Paper will be wet at the end of this class. Students may either take it home to dry or leave it at The Bindery for staff to dry and professionally flatten. Dry sheets can be picked up during regular business hours.)
***
>> Special Note: participants are encouraged to also consider our upcoming Masterclass to create a quarter bound leather book. The papers produced in this marbling course will be the right size, weight and grain direction to use as decorative endsheets for the final books produced.
