This is fantastic, thank you for sharing! But what was on the “X” page?

I totally relate to this!!

Concentric circle patterns of blue, green, and black paint are floating on top of the marbling “size” made of carrageenan (seaweed) and water

Splotchy patterns of blue and black paint float on top of the “size” for marbling paper

A “printed” sheet of marbled paper lies wet on a transfer board just after receiving the speckled and splotchy patterns of paint from the tray of size.

Did a bunch of marbling today… lots of experimenting, not as scientific as I should have been, but paying attention to a few things that perhaps I’ll remember for next time!

Played with watercolors again, this time with salt. I love the organic random patterns!
