Flowing like water and drifting clouds! Come experience transferring inks to paper!With every gentle movement, pigments flow and mingle across the water’s surface, forming ever-changing lines and patterns in spontaneous, mesmerizing ways.Paper marbling is a time-honoured papermaking technique. From selecting color palettes to drawing lines and motifs with tools, practitioners can enjoy a free and intuitive artistic process.In both Eastern and Western traditions, decorative paper has long been an essential element of bookmaking. In this two-day workshop, paper and bookbinding artist Percy So @percybookbinder will introduce marbled paper and paste paper techniques, guiding participants to create uniquely patterned and richly colored decorative sheets.These finished papers can be used in bookbinding or other handmade projects—as covers, endpapers, or interior decorative pages. Among plain sheets, these vibrant creations will become striking highlights.
