Suminagashi: The Japanese Art of Meditative Marbling

Suminagashi, the Japanese form of paper marbling, translates as “floating ink” or “spilled ink”. In this class, explore the creative, meditative process of suminagashi-style paper marbling. You’ll be guided through the history of suminagashi, a suminagashi demonstration, along with instruction on how to create a marbling set up at home, and you’ll leave with a collection of swirling, organic, water-painted marbled paper. Connect to fluidity, ink, breath, creative practice and nature.
