Suminagashi Marble Paper Technique - Using Calligraphy Ink

Suminagashi is a technique that allows you to marble paper using water and ink. Simple, peaceful and resulting in stunning results, this technique encourages you to be still, and let the ink and water resist each other to create incredible marbling patterns. You can use these patterns in book binding, cards, collage, or on their own. Enjoy! All you need are Calligraphy Ink ( or semi-e ink, or acrylic paint) 100% Cotton Paper (printer paper works, but the results will not be as defined or dark) 2 round, or pointed paint brushes A glass containing water with 1 drop of dish soap A container or basin for you water (tupperware or shallow ikea bins work great) Looking for children’s art classes online?
