Want to learn the marbling process? The Serious Beginner's Marbling Kit is available here: www.etsy.com/listing/15738120... And at www.marblingsupplies.com
Because of your video I decided to take a class... This morning in Florence in a little atelier in front of Palazzo Pitti I had a class with a man that was 5th generation artisan in book binding and marble paper. I was amazed at what I achieved in one hour. I understood 90% of what Guido was telling me. Now I want to do more!
Sylvie Vicenza: That is fantastic! I’m excited that you have discovered how easy Marbling can be, with proper materials and a good teacher. Please visit www.marblingsupplies.com and consider purchasing The Serious Beginner’s Marbling Kit. I have shipped successfully to over 50 different countries. 🙂
@@marblingsupplies Oh thank you for sharing this reference. I just learned about Ebru, as the Turkish call it and I would love to learn, as I have an idea I’d like to use it for a home decor idea.
The 'gel git' technique translates to 'come and go' in Turkish. The '... peri' effect translates to 'fairy' in Turkish. The techniques used here are Turkish. Well done in exhibiting the beauty of Turkish style marbling here 🙂
That's awesome, my grandpa use to do this back in the 1910's - 1920's, that was way way before my time, lol, so it's cool to see how he would have did it. I have some of his marbled papers and always wondered how. He would do those scallops and peacock design thing to. Just beautifully amazing designs.
I watched the process but my inner child is still shrieking in delight at the magic of the peacock print. Some magic just won't be silenced and thank you for generously sharing the beginners link.
♡💗♡Seeing the process never ruins it, quite the contrary - it's very inspirational to see and it's so satisfying to see the colors being manipulated by the creator and the reveal is so exciting your final result is exquisite that of an oil painting. This can be quite therapeutic; for the creator, and the audience as is so the case for me. I would love to start doing something like this. Thank you to whoever recorded, as well to the artíst who is very talented!💕
The magic is always there after watching for half an hour or more at Williamsburg VA. I was hooked and I looked for old books I could afford with Marbled Fly leafs and such, just to own the pages. I get lost in them every time I look at them.
I agree, to me it's even more magical when you see the process. I don't think it was understanding how it's done that ruined the magic for her, but more likely having done it so much for so long. Often when you turn art into a routine or a job it loses its magic, it becomes a chore.
WOW! It is still magic even after we are educated! I never would have put those colors together... And yet they gave way to such magic it would be a crime NOT-TO-CREATE it: if that makes any sense... Thank you so much for sharing! Peace
After watching some videos on this technique, yours is the best Heidi. The is got such a unfathomable learning curve, and believe you when saying that your always learning. How you used that last rake was so interesting, and the outcome from it was so beautiful. I could visualise that pattern on a massive canvas hanging in the reception area. Thank you for sharing.
Lovely marbled paper such as you have just made was used for the inside of expensive books as end papers. I would wish something that I have written would be graced by your art.
I really appreciated of you..since one and half years, I've been practising marbling (ebru art)in Turkey, because of corona problem we gave a break to our courses but now when I met to your video that made me happy.. your works look great..I'm wondering where you learn marbling art??
Love the trippy results. This is just one of the milestones in my way to learn bookbinding. There's so many subtleties in every step, it makes me wonder, how did they discover how to do this. Did they stumble upon these results while looking for something else? So many questions.
Maravilloso tuyrabajo ,tus pinturas me encanta ,no la conocía ,a esta técnica ,me gustaría que si puedes ,la pases en castellano y que materiales usas ,acrílico ,pinceles ,y como se trabaja ,estás pinturas , gracias 👍🏻😍😍🖌️
practice n not to much caffeine.....lol.... it is gorgeous.... Brillant work.... 👍👏👍 like a computer.... great job... I hope when I try it looks as good.... sub 1 here
In french nonpareil means "not the same" or unequaled but in this instance I think it referred to the fact that none would ever be the same. Non par ray is the pronunciation.
After searching and watching loads of videos on 'how to' yours is by far the best, thank you. If I was in the US I would definitely be attending one of your workshops (I'm in France). Can I just ask, do you thin your acrylic paint with, wster or acrylic thinning medium?
My paint is my own blend, and I do not share the recipe. I'm sorry. It's my only secret. I offer 30 colors, available separately on www.marblingsupplies.etsy.com. The complete set is available here: www.etsy.com/listing/193544126/complete-set-3-fl-oz-jars-ready-made?ref=shop_home_feat_4
This is wonderful, I just love the piece you made. What thickens the water? At the end you said you rinse and then hang to dry, why doesn't your design come off when you rinse? How long does it take to dry? Would love to try this, thank you for sharing.
All good questions.. Carageenan is used to thicken the water. Aluminum Sulphate is used to make the design bond permanently with the paper (paper is not special but I choose to use a Japanese printmaking paper called Masa) and drying takes about 45 minutes indoors and less outdoors. All of these items and instrucitons are available for purchase at www.marblingsupplies.etsy.com.
Gorgeous!! I would like to ask what your ratio is for your base. How much water? How much carrageenan? Also, Do the colors begin to sink if you work with them too long? I love your example and I am heading over the Etsy now to visit your shop. 😀
Hello Heidi! This is simply beautiful! Once they are finished is it possible to write on them with something? I would like to do these and then have an encouraging saying of sorts on them.
Sure. Using delicate colors or using less color creates a softer or less contrasting marbled paper. Calligraphy can certainly be applied on top of the paint. Try it and let me know!
Hi, thank you for your video, gorgeous work! Can you please tell me how deep the pan your using is and how deep does the water need to be? Thank you so much!!
Hi! I like for the bath to be 1" deep, so my trays have 1.5 " sides. This is just personal preference. Please see marblingsupplies.etsy.com for trays. Thanks!!
Heidi, I love the paper marbling, but in this video you didn't talk about the paper... what kind of paper do you use and do you have to treat it with Alum prior to laying it on the paint? TFS
Oh, there are so many things this video does not talk about! I plan to make more short videos addressing all of these things. Many artist-quality papers may be used successfully. Look for these things: Durability, flexibility, and absorbency. Yes, most paper types need alum.
It's so nice of you to share your technique. Can you please tell me how do you thicken the water? I've been trying my hand at marbeling but haven't been successful so far. Thanks
Sure! There are different thickening agents. I use carrageenan--One tablespoon + one teaspoon per 1/2 gallon of water. Carrageenan with instructions is available at www.marblingsupplies.etsy.com. Good luck!!
Hi Heidi, I love your marbling and have been trying it myself at home. Just had a couple of questions about your technique! How do you stop the paint washing away when you rinse the paper? Also do you use alum or any other mordant? Thanks 😊
Alice, The mordant aluminum sulfate (alum) prevents most of the paint from being washed away during the rinse. Read about alum here: www.etsy.com/listing/118997728/crystalline-marbling-alum-for-paper-and?ref=shop_home_active_29
Sure! There are different thickening agents. I use carrageenan. Carrageenan with instructions is available at www.marblingsupplies.etsy.com. Good luck!!
I use a thickening agent called carrageenan; dried processed seaweed. Read about it here: www.etsy.com/listing/117930052/half-pound-carrageenan-powder-supplies?ref=shop_home_active_2
Andrea D Stevens I use a powder called carrageenan to thicken the water and my own blend of paint. You can read about them here : www.marblingsupplies.etsy.com

yeah gel git if te words are seperated means come and go but if words together "gelgit" means tides
It does not loses its magic, it enhances it seeing the process, it is a beautiful ritual of a beautiful art.
Wow, I can see how Marbling would become addictive. Love it, and a big thank you for sharing. Glenis (in lockdown in Australia)
Hi. Watching a lot of craft and cooking videos during lockdown in USA.
That's awesome, my grandpa use to do this back in the 1910's - 1920's, that was way way before my time, lol, so it's cool to see how he would have did it. I have some of his marbled papers and always wondered how. He would do those scallops and peacock design thing to. Just beautifully amazing designs.
THERE IS NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE HOW MUCH TALENTED YOU ARE.ITS AN AMAZING ART WORK.THANK YOU FOR THE DEMONSTRATION. THANK YOU .
The marbling is SO beautiful, thanks for sharing.
I've always wondered how marble paper was made in old books my grandpa owned. Now I know, thanks a lot !
That’s gorgeous! Even knowing how it’s done I think it’s amazing and magical every time!
I like how you explain! I m also a marbling student here in İstanbul , thats one of the most relifing art you can do
Great marbling demonstration. Appreciate your time showing us.
I watched the process but my inner child is still shrieking in delight at the magic of the peacock print. Some magic just won't be silenced and thank you for generously sharing the beginners link.
It's so beautiful that I like marbled paper. What a wonderful artist she is!
So beautiful...it’s magical!
It's stunning and mesmerizing to watch the process.
Amazing!!! Love your passion it really shows🎨🖌

I love how the texture of finely woven silk, too, shows the intricate patterns possible with marbling.

Soo amazing

how utterly gorgeous！am spellbound！
Love yours the best. No comparison. Can I used watered down acrylic with either corn starch of a laundry starch mixed in the water?
I'm not sure. Give it a try! If you'd like to use carrageenan as I do, you can read about it at my website: www.marblingsupplies.etsy.com

absolutely, beautiful! Please share with me how you thicken your water before adding your colors. Thank you so much.
Antionette, I use a product called carrageenan to thicken the water. You can read about it here: www.marblingsupplies.etsy.com

Thank you for this beautiful video and the really good way of explaining and clarifying
But how can I make the water
You'll need a thickening agent to mix with the water. In my process, carrageenan is used. It's available here: www.marblingsupplies.etsy.com.
carrageenan
Ahhh, yes!
😮 WOW !

Sure! There are different thickening agents. I use carrageenan. Carrageenan with instructions is available at www.marblingsupplies.etsy.com. Good luck!!
Beautiful.Did you mix anything with water before adding the colors?
I use a solution of water and carrageenan. Carrageenan powder is available here: www.marblingsupplies.etsy.com. Thanks!!
What makes the water thick like that?
The process is easy with such an awesome outcome
I use a thickening agent called carrageenan; dried processed seaweed. Read about it here: www.etsy.com/listing/117930052/half-pound-carrageenan-powder-supplies?ref=shop_home_active_2
if someone bumped that table, I'd be pissed.
Jackie M ...pist...No... HOMICIDAL
Since the colors don't blend I think you'd be spared!
@@skypilotace 😄😅😂🤣
Maybe the one who did that whas already pissed
All That would Do is make a Different Pattern Uniquer Than Planned....
What do you use to thicken your water? And what do you mix with your acrylics to make them thin fo splattering as you do with the brush?
Andrea D Stevens I use a powder called carrageenan to thicken the water and my own blend of paint. You can read about them here : www.marblingsupplies.etsy.com
