The course of ebru master Alparslan Babaoğlu

During 15 – 20. 09. 2015 I visited Warsow, where one of the best Ebru masters, Alparslan Babaoğlu, was visiting as well. During the courses we discussed the qualities of Ebru materials, the importance of tools, and how to prepare both of them for work. We were also introduced to the main techniques of Ebru: battal, hatib ebru, floral ebru, and also combed ebru. Not only could we watch the masters work, but also had a go at the techniques ourselves. I’m glad to have gained the experience and advice. I’m thankful to the master and teacher Alparslan Babaoğlu for honesty and input, which incited me to improve upon my work!
