Drawing on water

Marbling art, Ebri art, Ebru art and Suminagashi are different names for this art (drawing on water). Art generally is a crucial tool that has and still is used to document history. Hence , giving us a wide and detailed perspective of how are ancestors lived and the way the shaped the present day. This is portrayed ,for instance , in the paintings during the colonization that gave an insite of the tremendous change being done at that period of time . With that being said my mission as an artist is to transform the art and masterpieces seen in museums to waerable art that could me tangible in everyday life .

One of the merits of this art, marbling painting , is that it is unpredictable so that every piece is exquisite and unique. It's also the kind of art that is not constrained so that no piece is like the other and no replicas could be done whuch is due to the fluidity of water and the colours .

Marbling art is an ancient method of aqueous surface design, which can produce patterns similar to marble or other stone, hence the name. The patterns are the result of color floated on water, and then carefully transferred to fabric or other material.

Marbled paper, as a decorative material has been used to cover a variety of surfaces for several centuries. It is often employed as a writing surface for calligraphy, and especially book covers and endpapers in bookbinding, restoration, conservation ,stationery and we use marbling art for fashion.
