The special tools of the art are brushes of horsehair bound to straight rose twigs, a deep tray made of unknotted pinewood, natural earth pigments, cattle gall and tragacanth.

It is believed to be invented in the thirteenth century. Seljuk and Ottoman calligraphers and artists used marbling to decorate imperial decrees, official correspondence and documents. It is often employed as a writing surface for calligraphy, and especially book covers and endpapers in bookbinding. Part of its appeal is that each print is a unique monotype.

This workshop is a learning experience, in which you will be making your own “ebru” artwork, and keep your work as a souvenir. You can also ask questions of the artist.

This is also once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Drinks and cookies will be available during a coffee break.
