Paper Marbling Workshop July 7 – 8 10:00AM - 4:00PM Instructed by Steve Pittlekow Learn the fascinating decorative paper process known as marbling. In this fast paced class you will learn to marble on paper in a two-day intensive workshop designed to introduce you to the process and practice of this historic medium using contemporary tools and materials. You will learn to mix the bath and colors, prepare paper, and practice many traditional patterns. This “at the tank” class is exciting with both freeform and structured guidance. This is the third time in four years the Morgan has hosted Pittlekow to teach this and it’s a huge hit every year. The finished pieces you come away with are reward enough, but to learn from one of the best in the medium is an opportunity you don’t want to miss. Marbled paper you make can be framed as art within itself or you can use your finished pieces in bookbinding or other paper arts. Steve Pittelkow’s interest in marbled paper stems from a longtime desire to personalize his own bookbinding with distinctive papers. He teaches extensively and enjoys revealing the secrets for successful marbling. Over the years, he has experimented with a wide variety of paints and papers in a quest for materials that allow students a rich and satisfying marbling experience. Steve's papers appear in museum collections and are used by binders and book artists nationally and internationally. Paper Marbling Workshop 1754 E. 47th Street Add Your Event May Jun Jul
