Video Drip Drop

I recently released a new ebru art video!

Still from the new underwater ebru art video.

I placed a wide-angle video camera underneath my homemade clear ebru tray and got the underwater view of me working on an abstract acrylic ebru piece.


Watch my new ebru art video.

Using a water based acrylic air-brush paint I started the video with a battal(stone) pattern to get the paint on the size(water mixture). I followed up with intersecting gel-git(zig-zag) patterns that pull the paint into a series of fine lines. Using a rake, I pulled the paint into a tightly detailed Tarakli(nonpareil) pattern. Then I finished the piece by breaking up the pattern with a few stones. Finally I collected my efforts into a paper mono-print.

I decided to make the video a time-lapse, speeding it up x3, so it wouldn't be to long.

I hope you enjoyed this unique peek into my process. If you are interested in learning more consider taking one of my ebru workshops.

My next paper marbling class will be held on July 26th at The Village Gallery Of Arts in Portland, Oregon. It will be an all levels class so all are welcome.

My premier fabric marbling class will be held the following month on August 17th at The Village Gallery Of Arts. Once again it will be an all levels class, so all are welcome.
