64 years old and finally! I often wondered as a child the how and the why's of this in some of my Dad's books. His book's were donated to UMSL after his death in 1985. Thank you for this ~ ✌🌷

Marbling was used all over the world, using techniques invented and reinvented by many cultures. It is not just Turkish or Japanese or Italian. I'm just glad that there are people still using the old ways combined with the new ways to keep the art alive, updated and interesting for each generation.

This video was shot in what the 80's, the art of marbling was not as commonly practiced as it is now. thank goodness it made a comeback. I love it. The research I have done, the Turkish marbling is done with the watch thickened, the Japanese style is not, its plain water and the ink is applied. I have not looked up the Italian version. I am sure there are many differences. It's breathtaking, I wished they had workshops here in Cleveland Ohio, I would love to learn the craft ... pout pout not offered here

Curtis uses inorgnic inert pigments, such as ochres and sythetic iron oxides. The exception would be Prussian Blue, which is a lake pigment.

countrydoctor This is probably far too late, but you to get hold of carageen powder to thicken the water so that the inks will sit on the water. Even thin wallpaper paste will work, although not as well. I do hope that you got some info earlier thn this!

Contact Galen Berry at Marble Art in Oklahoma City. While not being the historic variety of paper marbling, Galen can set you straight on what to purchase for acryic paint paper marbling.

11 years late to help you, but maybe someone else cruising through with the same questions may see this. The water needs to be thickened. Normally a seaweed gelatin concoction is made using carageen powder. but there are alternatives. methylcellulose, not the digestive powder type you mix in your morning coffee... but the pure stuff, can work, as can cornstarch in a pinch. you dont want to turn the water to jello, just runny syrup consistency. For the paint, really any acrylic will work. it needs to be thinned. and a couple drops of Ox Gall added for surfactant. you can even use kids tempera paints or finger paints if the water bath is prepared correctly, but finer consistency pigments give the best result. Alternatively, you can try suminagashi, or japanese marbling. no need to thicken the water. but you will need real sumi ink, preferably an actual ink stick and a grinding stone so you can be sure its just straight pigment and not some commercially produced ink with additives in it. beyond that, a couple japanese/chinese caligraphy brushes that can be had for cheap at any art supply, and some paper to take prints with, and your good to go. ox gall or some very very dilute soap water will be needed for the "white" space, as you make the pattern by alternating the ink brush with the surfactant brush to push the ink and build the pattern. Optionally some Alum powder can be used to make a solution called a Mordant, which you treat the paper with prior to lifting the print off the water. a Mordant acts as a binder between the paper and the paint so that more paint sticks, thus giving you a brighter pattern on the finished paper. But you can pull prints without it. good luck and happy marbling!

@countrydoctor Maybe it's not really water. It could be mineral oil, could be even grain alcohol. I don't know. If you live in or near a city where there is a papermaking supply store, you might be able to find information there about paper marbeling.

Interesting, they mention countries like France and Spain or even Dutch (Holland) but the origin is traceable to Middle Asia and it came to flourish in the Ottoman Empire when in Europe Turkish art was very modern and expensive. People should tell stories te as fully and not only the parts they think is relevant! Regards

Trabajo yo en cinematografia(35mm) y me perocupe mcho que la genet quien solo usen video digital no les conocesen cine reale.

same with bookbinding. its experiencing a resurgence in interest. probably due to the breakneck pace of technology making people nostalgic for the "bad ol days" when things were simpler and really the only bad part was the racism, the rest was ok. The arts will never die. They just shift from mass market trade commodities to specialized art. maybe fine art, if you follow Ebru developments. there are some mind bending Ebru artists in Turkey that can paint on water like the old masters on canvas.

I like the art dont get me wrong but kids are doing this with fingernail polish and dipping thier fingers in it to give a unique look on thier nails. If kids are doing this they can do it with paper. Its not rocket science.

Kids can also finger paint, but that doesn't mean there's no skill involved in recreating a Van Gogh. Sure anybody can marble paper, but producing true pieces of art like this man and other do takes a great deal of experience and skill to get a beautiful product consistently. There's a nuance to it. Saying kids can do it, therefore it's not rocket science, is like saying there are kids who can play the cello, therefore Yo Yo Ma is a schmuck.
