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.

I also just had to throw in some agate slices because I feel like so many of the visual things I love are inspired by mother nature...

DIP DYED FLOWER POTS

 

I love the idea of using natural dyes to achieve this look -- so beautiful.  I also can't believe how beautiful the wasara cups are.  So inspiring!  via design sponge
