Three Panels & a Display case

In front of three panels of Christopher's papers at the exhibition in 2006 at the University of Washington.

Fine Tuning

A slight delay on entries do to major work on putting a collection of Christopher's finest work in order with the help of the marbler Vi Wilson from Australia who especially came to help me with this huge task, nonstop work for long five days. So once again I say I'll add to the entry but now I have to collect my thoughts and leave you with a few pictures of the sorting job.

Entry to follow

Marbling in Miniature mounted for exhibition purposes. An entry about the work and book to follow sometime soon.

Until the next entry

A thank you

to you who write comments that always encourage me to add something else. I always think there may be nothing else I could add but then when you write I feel joy and try finding something I had not shown. I thank you for wanting to see more, Ingrid

Temporary entry

To create a new entry seems more difficult over time because much has been shown and shared but then an idea developes and that energy is wonderful. This is to say my brain is working on hopefully an interesting addition but having first to reread previous entries so not to repeat myself. This is also an opportunity to wish everyone a good and creative New Year. It is so wonderful for me to be in touch with so many marblers.

With best wishes, Ingrid

Bullseye

Every marbler who encounters extreme fluctuations with weather, from moist to suddenly very

dry knows about paper turning too dry and dust problems unless you have a controlled environment. It was a constant struggle for Christopher in this climate so when it was a perfect day for marbling after having prepared papers and colors days ahead it was a joy for him when everything worked. This 18X24 piece was one of those days. No intention for achieving patterns that day but to see how the colors worked.
