Paper marbling is a decorative technique that creates patterns resembling smooth marble or other stones. This is done by floating colors on either plain water or a thick solution called size and then carefully transferring the design onto a surface, such as paper or fabric. Throughout history, people have used marbled materials for various purposes. Today, it is commonly used for calligraphy writing surfaces, book covers, and endpapers in bookbinding and stationery. One of the appealing aspects of paper marbling is that each print is a unique piece of art.
Larger group sessions available on request for friends, family and print friends. Email: hello@smallprintcompany.com to make an enquiry.
