MikiLovett is taking a short break

Note from shop owner To my followers and new friends. I have a family emergency that requires my immediate move across the country by end of July 2021. I don't know when I will be able to set up my studio and start marbling again but I hope it will be by fall. Thank you for interest in my work.

About MikiLovett

Sales 215
On Etsy since 2009
  • Historic Reproduction of an 18th century paper.
  • Contemporary marbled patterns excellent for use in book craft and origami.
  • I use smaller pieces of my marbled paper to bind journal books.

Avid Marbler and Printmaker

The marbled patterns are the result of acrylic paints floated on a liquid, viscous solution known as size. Once the pattern has been made on the size it is transferred to an absorbent surface such as paper or fabric. It is often employed as a writing surface for calligraphy and as book covers or endpapers in bookbinding and many other paper arts. Part of the appeal of marbling is that each print is a unique monotype.

For me, marbling is a conversation between order and chaos, control and spontaneity. Order is not imposed on chaos nor is control meant to suppress spontaneity. There is a conversation between the ‘given’, the way the color moves and expands on the size, and ‘manipulation’ of the color with my tools. It is never the same twice.

I use the traditional patterns, dating from the 12th century up to the present, as a base for studying the linear possibilities and for color studies. These patterns form a base from which more spontaneous designs can emerge.
