Class Description: Marbleizing: Custom Paper Workshop with Sandie Brayman
Class | Available
Students will learn to prepare their paper with alum, mix paints, see how the carrageenan is prepared, study the traditional patterns, and pull their first print before a lunch break. After lunch they will work independently, with guidance as desired, and pull 10-12 marbled prints of their own design. The goal is to give students the knowledge and confidence to enable them to continue marbling at home.
All levels - ages 14 +
All supplies are included.

Creative play has always been important to me. Finishing up my art degree late in life opened up whole new worlds of fun, which led to several summer courses at OxBow, with paper making grabbing my attention the most. I was able to assemble a paper making studio at home, and learned bookbinding, marbling and other allied crafts along the way. Since it was all so enjoyable, I wanted to let others join in, and I began teaching classes as opportunities arose. Marbling workshops eventually became my favorite, because marbling is both playful and portable! My instruction combines what I learned from Andrea Peterson (Hook Pottery Paper) and Galen Berry (MarbleArtUSA), encouraging both independence and mastery as each student sees fit.
