9:00am - 3:30pm with an hour lunch break. Each participant will have the opportunity to marble 25 - 10x15 papers. *Please contact me prior to purchase to arrange a date that works for both of us. kris@scrollandink.com*
Are you enthralled with those beautifully marbled papers you see in stores, in books or on envelope linings? Now you can spend a day with Kris Stewart learning how to make your own marbled paper designs! You'll learn in a real working artist's studio, floating paint on a water bath, swirling and combing your colors as you wish, and pulling one-of-a-kind sheets of paper with your own designs! It's a mesmerizing art form, and each pull is a surprise. While all the prep for your experience will be done by me the day before, you’ll receive instructions and supply recommendations should you want to try this on your own.
We'll take an hour lunch break when we're about halfway through our papers to allow the marbling tanks to rest. I'm happy to make nearby lunch recommendations, or you may bring your own and sit in the studio or outside, weather permitting.
*Your paper will be dry and mostly flat the morning after class. If you're local, you can arrange to pick it up at your convenience, or I'd be happy to ship it to you for $8 per address (US only.)

Each year, I get myself a Scroll & Ink Journal for Christmas that will hold my thoughts and experiences for the year ahead. This is the first time I’ve tried a buttonhole, but I like the look of it and can’t wait to crack it open!
Kris is a master at customer service in addition to the journals—prompt responses, fast and friendly delivery. This was my first experience with the refillable journal—and I was incredibly impressed. The texture and cut of the leather, the quality of the paper, the design of the individual notebooks are the very high quality that I’ve come to respect. Highly recommend!

The exterior of the sketchbook is high quality leather with beautiful olive coloring. Kris hand makes these books and her attention to detail is obvious. Her prompt and courteous service, artistry and professionalism are all reasons Kris is a joy to work with.
