Joan Ajala Workshop: 2/3 July 2007
This workshop at the Megalo Public Access Printmaking Studios covered traditional paper marbling. It presented a wonderful opportunity for members to both learn the techniques of marbling and build up a personal collection of marbled paper for later use.
Joan’s marbled papers are sold in specialty paper shops in major Australian cities and used extensively by private and State Library bookbinders.
Her marbled cards and miniature framed works are sold in Australian galleries and bookshops.
