I spent a few hours making more suminagashi marbled papers. I had so much fun with it, and it didn't use as much ink as I initially thought it would. If you have any inks and blank papers, give this technique a try, it is a blast. I can't wait to figure out what to put on top of some of these awesome papers. I need a little more practice getting the inks to appear bright and saturated, like some of them turned out. I think the trick is to create the marbling and dip the paper quickly, before the ink starts to sink into the water.
