Water Marbling Workshop

Service Description

This water marbling workshop with In Aetheria introduces you to the vivacious art of water marbling, as uniquely applied in all printmaking seen in the brand's clothing and products. Amanda takes you into her approach to the art and facilitates the session whilst allowing ample time for exploration into how you wish to approach your creation -- there is no right or wrong way! Once the basics are relayed, feel free to play with the inks in the marbling bath which offers quite visually stimulating, video share worthy footage! Attendees are welcomed to first experiment and play with how they wish to apply inks to the marbling baths, honing in on their preferred techniques and colour palettes, which can be transferred onto paper for practice. (Which also make great gift cards!) When they feel ready, they are then welcomed to create their marbled masterpiece/s! The mesmerizing way the inks morph and move provide quite a therapeutic nature to the whole experience. This workshop is truly special in how you are provided with the materials prepped beforehand via a mordanting process using potash alum. This enables the creation of your own wearable art on fabric that is completely wash-fast after the ink dries, is rinsed, and then ironed to set permanently. The fabric probably won't dry in time to take home so you are either welcome to come back another day to pick it up, or you may select to have your pieces mailed out to you as an optional add-on. The fabric must also be rinsed after the ink has transferred, and then ironed. If you would prefer this be done by Amanda, this is an optional add-on. This water marbling class is perfect for any group or solo event. Whether you're trying something new with a friend or looking for romantic date night ideas, gather your loved ones along to this relaxing class. Base rate price includes: • 68cm x 68cm square of pre-mordanted cotton fabric to marble • There are also optional add ons such as silk scarves
