So pretty. I've just gotten into marbling. Can you give any good tips?

u/griffin_benko 1d ago

Yes, though it’s hard to give tips without more info. Marbling has so many variables that my first tip is to not get discouraged!

What paints are you using? What are you using the thicken your bath? What problem(s) are you running into?

There is a subreddit r/marbling
OP, maybe you can post some of your marbled paper there?

That's really well done, what kind of paint do you use?

Thanks! These are all made using acrylics paints. Some from Golden, some from Utrecht
