I have been branching out with my ebru techniques, but I keep finding myself drawn back to the classic paper masking technique. I guess I just love the way I can overlay colors and play with fun patterns.
These first few designs are inspired by late 60's early 70's Vintage psychedelia. Bold vibrant colors with an Op Art designs cause me to recall some decadent vintage fabric finds.
Vibrant Vintage
Bold contemporary flare
I also threw some Boho style patterns in there too. Like this classic lantern pattern with a forced perspective twist.
Lantern swirls
Boho chic
I loved working with the bold clean lines of this chic arrow pattern.
----Workshops----
I will be hosting a silk marbling workshop at The Loaded Brush on May 13th.
Thats all for now!

Rounding Up
Hey, It looks like we made it to 2018.
I would just like to catch up on what I had been up to for the last bit of 2017. I've been quite productive.
I had the privilege to make a series of collaborative works with the artist Chelsea Rose(aka: @LucidRose). We made a total of ten pieces on wood panel. Each piece was marbled first, Then Chelsea adorned the ebru art with an original painting of a creature or scene from the world of Lucid Rose
Joint Efforts
We created the ten pieces for the 10th Annual Portland Big 500 Art Show. The Big 500 is a neat show that happens every December. It has 500 local artists contribute art for a massive display that spans three different neighboring galleries.
First come, first serve
The whole show is "cash & carry". Meaning if you want a piece just pull it off the wall and pay for it then take it with you. This first come style creates quite the commotion.
I also held a Silk Marbling workshop at The Loaded Brush in Portland.
Another successful Ebru workshop
Its been a while since holding a silk workshop. I had a blast and we all had some great marbled results. So, I decided to hold another silk marbling workshop this Spring.
----Workshops----
I will be hosting a silk marbling workshop at The Loaded Brush on February 11th.
Thats all for now!
