All the leaves are turning...


Were we back at the marbling today but we ventured onto fabric and surprisingly the paint seemed to like sticking to the fabric much better than the paper. 






Four hands needed in the fabric marbling operation to get a nice even coating of paint. We are using acrylic liquitex, which has the right consistency for floating and keeps its vibrancy. 






With some pretty amazing results all round, it's really pot luck to see what will happen to each bit of fabric or piece of paper, as what you see floating in the mixture is often not what ends up on the page. A bit of magic...
