Insights
A fascinating process, paper marbling is a craft that dates back centuries. Paints and oils are carefully dropped onto the surface of thickened water, and are then raked and stretched to create an intriguing pattern. Next, the paper is - with special care - placed on top of the painted surface to produce the print, then removed and left to hang and dry. A printmaking technique which guarantees a unique, one-of-a-kind outcome each and every time.
