EBRU (marbling technique) workshop .
“…marbling is a technique of chromatic decoration on paper that mimics, reproducing the color mottling, a marble surface. It consists in placing a sheet of paper on the surface of a liquid specially prepared and it is made possible thanks to the properties of different liquids insoluble each other ...”. ( Turkish culture and information office)
A three-hour laboratory experience that enhances the potential of painting on water based on the ancient Turkish decorative technique called Ebru.
After a short description of this technique we'll proceed to the first experiential approach on paper sheets and small objects, then we will go further working on special effects, and in the third step, listening to specific music, we'll permit to the inner Artist that is in us to create freely abandoning himself to the charme of floating paintings.
You will get all the artworks you produce. Shouldn't they be dried we can make arrangements to ship them to your home.

Disposable lab coat and shoe covers. Both can be purchased locally for 5, 00Euro.Good to know
The usage of colours can spot your clothes and or your shoes, but I say "it leaves its trace nicely". So I advice you to wear disposable lab coat and shoes cover. They will be available at the workshop for an extra cost of 5 euros.
Paints, brushes, and paper to use during the workshop will be available for free.
Note: I have always loved my terrirory and I feel a deep connection with it; this is why one of my goals in offering these experiences is to protect and defend it. So I have decided to give 10% of the earnings to the SALVATETTI operation ( church roofs renewing of Santa Maria in Piano and San Pietro in Loreto Aprutino).
