Free book for review from Netgalley! ~. Woah I wish I had had this book back during printmaking class when I was trying out marbling from online tutorials and interlibrary loan copies that weren’t nearly as thorough as this book. I got some of the steps right, but I missed out on so many things and this book would have answered ALL OF MY QUESTIONS.

Many people treat marbling like this great big secret art and will give you some of the basics... but not all the nitty gritty details to actually make good prints. Speaking as an artist and hobby bookbinder that kind of approach is very annoying— but this artist gives all the details and I am here for it!!

Needless to say once I have the space and materials I will try the process again—and I will definitely be using this book as a primary source of information. I feel like next time I might actually be successful.

Beautiful photos. Tools and equipment explained. Step by step guides. Projects to make w/ marbling at the end. Troubleshooting help. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

If you’re at all interested in marbling, I highly recommend this book.
