The class will cover basic techniques and how to create the two main types of patterns (stoned patterns and combed patterns).\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis workshop is called “Acrylic Marbling” to differentiate it from Turkish (ebru) marbling and traditional European marbling, which use water-based paints. Marbling originated around 1500, with some of the earliest examples found in Qurans and other Islamic religious texts from Persia. This class uses acrylic paint, a modern material, to reproduce traditional marbling patterns while embracing the potential for experimentation and playfulness.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWe will learn about the history of marbling and discuss traditional recipes and techniques. Students will learn how to prepare all materials and mix paint. Most of the class will be hands-on worktime, and each student will have their own tray to work in. As the day progresses, we will learn new techniques and patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eRequired Materials:\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAll staff, artists, students, and guests are \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/centerforbookarts.org\/resources\/social-justice\"\u003erequired to show proof of vaccination\u003c\/a\u003e upon entering CBA and must wear a mask covering the nose and mouth at all times.
