about this workshop

Learn the creative and meditative process of Suminagashi marbling and create marbled designs on silk and paper! Characterized by delicate tendrils of colorful inks and swirling patterns floated on the surface of a bath of water., you’ll explore the meditative process of Suminagashi (“floating ink”) and create your own marbled designs on silk and paper.

You’ll learn a short history of the process, be led through a demonstration, and then flow with ink, paper, water, and breath, as you create a marbled silk bandana and a collection of marbled papers. All materials provided
