Leave your worries at the door and learn how to create beautiful patterns on the surface of water. In this art class in Austin, you will learn the basics of suminagashi paper marbling.
Suminagashi, translated as “floating ink” is an ancient Japanese art form where ink is applied to the surface of water, manipulated to create beautiful patterns, and then transferred to a sheet of paper. From the first time your brush touches the water, you'll be entranced.
During this workshop, your instructor, Leah McKnight will help you to create at least four one-of-a-kind suminagashi art pieces. First, we’ll go over a number of different techniques you can use to create your marbled designs, and then you’ll be free to sink into the relaxing flow of marbling.
What you'll learn
  • Learn about the history of suminagashi marbling
  • Understand the different supplies and techniques you can use to manipulate your designs
  • Practice letting go of expectations and relaxing into the process
  • Take home a pile of marbled papers to frame or craft with
  • See examples of crafts you can create with your marbled paper
  • Learn in an intimate environment with one-on-one support as needed
  • Leave with a basic understanding of this meditative craft!
