Ebru Water Marbling Workshop: Canvas Shoes, Saturday, June 1 from 11:00-2:00
Dive into the colorful world of shoe marbling with us! In this unique workshop, you'll learn the fascinating process of marbling on canvas shoes, transforming them into wearable art. Due to the special preparations required for the best marbling results, participants will use dyable canvas shoes provided by us. These shoes are selected for their marbling capabilities, so if you have particular size or comfort requirements, please reach out before the workshop. We’re happy to accommodate your needs by sourcing more specialized footwear (suitable for dying) just for you, though this may incur an additional cost depending on the shoes selected.
Alternatively, if you wish to personalize your experience further, you're welcome to provide your own canvas shoes. Please deliver them to us one week prior to the workshop to allow ample time for pre-treatment with mordant, essential for the marbling process. While this option doesn't change the workshop fee, it offers a unique opportunity: not only will you customize a pair of your shoes during the workshop, but you'll also receive a pair provided by us, which you can gift or keep as an additional canvas for your new skills. There's no extra charge for marbling the second pair—consider it our gift to you!
All materials are included
Please note that the results of Ebru water marbling are unique and unpredictable, and the final outcome of your work may not look exactly like the examples shown in our photos. Each piece created in the art of Ebru is one-of-a-kind, reflecting the individual style and technique of the artist. We encourage you to embrace the spontaneous and fluid nature of Ebru, and enjoy the process of creating your own distinctive designs.
