This first piece is my favorite of the year so far for two reasons. One, I love optical illusions. Two, the ebru came out nice and clean with lots of contrast.
Handmade psychedelic 3D illusion.
The impossible triangle is made up of four separate ebru prints on this one piece of paper.
not so impossible after all.
This next piece is made of triangles linked together to form a tetrahedron knot design. This piece has a natural glow to the warm colors, and a dark velvet feel to the cool colors. The ebru patterns used are rather simple, but rich contrast of color really draws me in.
How many triangles do you see?
This third piece is covered in triangles. Although the focus of the piece is really on the abstract ebru-scape background. The idea behind this piece is based on old cottage window designs, and the amazing fictional landscape outside my window.
Window with a view?

I recently had the pleasure of hosting a workshop at a new facility, The Loaded Brush, in SE Portland. It was a beginners workshop that started out with paper marbling and evolved into canvas marbling. The workshops went so well we are arranging more for 2014.
Widening the circle.
