Paper marbling; the art of floating ink on a liquid in order to create patterns
which are then printed I used to make Turkish marbled paper like those on old
endpapers. Highly coloured and often combed, they answered to names such as
non-pareil and peacock. The process was controllable so many similar sheets of
paper could be produced. Nowadays I marble paper the Japanese way to produce
suminagashi; non-repeatable, simple and elegant designs on paper.
