We are rescheduling for later summer or early fall. If you are interested please contact Angie to get on the waiting list. 
 
The workshop is a 2-day experience, from  9 am - 4 pm each day. If you are a marbling artist who has taken this workshop with Angie previously, you are invited to join in for an optional one-day experience at an adjusted price. If you are an experienced marbler and would like to have the one-day option, contact Angie to discuss if this is viable.
 
You are invited to participate in one or both of these intensive and exciting art experiences in a small group retreat format with me here in Tualatin.  Marbling is a gorgeous art form and doing it is a transformative experience for you in your art.  It is also a unique bonding experience like no other with fellow artists who like to experiment and play. 
 
Because of the nature of marbling and the many steps involved in producing marbled art, this is a minimum two-day experience. Because the tools and supplies are a lot to put together, the cost of supplies is included in the workshop fee to make it easier for everyone and to guarantee consistent results. Modeled on the best practices of marbling teachers who have gone before me, this workshop is part of a thousand-year tradition of creating one-of-a-kind exquisite papers and artwork. For those who are interested, we will take it to the next level by incorporating our own watercolor art paintings.  
 
In this workshop, you will learn many things, including: 
the techniques for creating various designs that are recognizable (and have names), 
what are the essential materials and supplies needed 
 
In this workshop, you will see demos and practice skills for:
Preparing papers and art to be marbled
Designing patterns with acrylic paints to float on sizing in a tray
Printing your designs onto various kinds of paper
Creating and manipulating designs to print over your own artwork
 
In this workshop, you will also:
Get individual help to refine your skills
Ask questions and request a demo on things you’d like to learn
Share your work, get/give feedback, if you wish
 
There is much to cover, and we won’t be able to cover everything in these two days. For example, you will create fabulous, marbled papers and marbled artwork, but you may want to gain ideas for where to go next. Ideas for this will be offered individually in my OPEN STUDIOS or in follow-up “mini one-day marbling workshops” designed for marble artists where we tackle artistic choices, fixes, refinements, etc. 

The two-day marbling workshop begins at 9 am and goes till 4 pm each day. You will only need to bring the papers and artwork you wish to use for your marbling and a bag lunch. See BELOW for a more detailed list of what to bring. People who register will also be provided with specific directions for sealing their watercolor, charcoal, or other artwork ahead of time--an essential part of the process that must happen before we meet otherwise your marbling time will be limited.
 
The cost of each two-day workshop is $325. Again, the fee includes all the materials except papers; that said, some practice papers will be provided to get you started. 
 
This is a small group experience, so space is limited. Registration will be on a first-come basis. CONTACT ANGIE DIRECTLY BY CALLING  OR TEXTING AT 503-705-9193 FOR SPACE AVAILABILITY. If a participant needs to cancel within 30 days of the workshop, there will be no refunds or credits issued. 
 
SPECIAL NOTE: 
Marbling is a rich experience and more unfolds the more you do it.  If you are like many other artists, you may find value in taking the marbling workshop multiple times to practice skills in a materials-rich environment with other artists who are on the same journey. Each workshop affords more opportunities for experimentation and developing new strategies that suit your own artistic goals.  In other words, if you love it, you may find you will wish to do more over time. 
 
Weather is important since this is mostly an outdoor experience. We need dry conditions to hang our papers (so, no rain) and we need warmth but not extreme hot or cold. This means there is a small window each year to do a workshop.
 
No one can predict the weather, but we plan with optimism.  Hopefully, we will have a lovely October, allowing for a couple more opportunities to have marbling fun.  If you sign up and the weather is an issue, we will reschedule. If we need to reschedule, and you are unhappy with the rescheduled dates, I will issue you a refund, no worries. We want this to be a delightful experience for everyone and thank you for understanding and being flexible. 
 
I hope you will join us.
 
Yours in art,
 
Angie
