FANTASTIC!!!
Amazing. It brought back such beautiful, creative memories of Turkey.
@sharmanti: You would think that, but not really. I work in a museum & occasionally do marbling as a drop-in craft for kids & often adults. I think the nature of color floating on liquid makes it hard to mess up. There is such beauty in the nature of it. Obviously, no one is making anything near what you see in this video, but unless one gets in & stirs the heck out of the paint like they’re mixing cake batter, it turns out and pulling the paper is like watching fireworks–oohs & ahhs!
Waw !! I knew the technique but this video is sooo beautiful !!! Thanks for sharing, Art.
You’re very welcome Marie
I am on a quest for the next couple of months to bring a lot of attention to various art forms. I want everyone to see how far we all can go as artists and how there are no limitations to what we can do!
