Marbling Meets Cyanotype

Master Marbler Steve Pittelkow was running the class in the Book & Paper Studio when I was teaching at Penland. We found a vibrant & thrilling meeting of the minds & techniques.
We'll take our show on the road next spring - look for a weekend marbling & cyanotype workshop in May 2012 at Asheville Bookworks where you too can join the madness.  And check out Asheville Bookworks http://www.ashevillebookworks.com/ an amazing facility full of every type of book, paper & printing gear you would ever want to lay your creativity on.
