SILVER + PORCELAIN JEWELRY BY PAULINE EDIE

I just love any videos that showcase an artist's process -- it's more than half of the fun!

MARBLE ART

The latest thing I've been exploring is marble art -- ebru is the turkish art of paper marbling, and I've never seen an art form where the process looked like more fun than the final product.

I also came across some beautiful pieces by Garip Ay.  He combines ebru with painting...so amazing.
