What we’re about
Welcome to the Rose Art Studio Ebru (Marbling Art) Meetup Group!
Journey to Ebru Art with Gül İSTANBULLUOĞLU
Gül İSTANBULLUOĞLU, who has been bringing the magic of water and paint to life for 15 years, is now meeting with art lovers in this group. Gül, a professional ebru artist and academic, continues her work in her warm and unique studio in Brussels.
Gül İSTANBULLUOĞLU, who tells a story on the surface of the water with her art, brings together both the deep-rooted spirit of traditional ebru and her unique interpretation. Now, she will share her artistic experiences, kneaded with the accumulation of years, with us on this platform.
She will inspire everyone interested in Ebru art with the courses, workshops, and live demonstrations she organizes every week. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced artist, you'll be welcomed and guided by Gül to explore the magic of colors on water.
Ebru with Gül İSTANBULLUOĞLU is not just an art, it's a journey of personal growth. Get ready to discover patience in every drop and freedom in every movement, as you explore the potential of your own artistic expression.
What is Ebru (paper marbling) ?
The ebru technique is based on dropping and applying colors with brushes and metal sticks onto a gum-tragacant based solution, a dense liquid. Once pattern forming is finished, a piece of paper is laid onto the liquid, and once removed colors and patterns transfer onto the paper.
