Midwest Marbling presents: Paper for Marbling with Erin Maurelli.

Marbling is an art form that is growing in popularity. This presentation/conversation will explore one of the major questions that plague marblers: Why does some paper work for marbling and some doesn’t?

Erin Maurelli will explore the factors that affect success when marbling and also highlight some papers that work well using the Wet Paint resources. She will also take questions and lead a discussion on the issues. This program is being put together by Midwest Marbling, an organization of marblers in the region and beyond who want to build their knowledge and expertise in marbling.

Erin Maurelli is a Twin Cities based artist with 25 years of experience in printmaking and all things book arts. Her understanding of paper started as a young printmaker at Tamarind Institute, preparing paper for printing. Her knowledge of paper expanded under Timothy Barrett at the University of Iowa, where she studied the art of paper making. Today, she teaches college courses at multiple institutions, and adult education classes at Minnesota Center for Book Arts. As a member of Midwest Marbling, Erin is delighted to geek out over paper, and share what qualities she looks for when choosing papers.
