Ebru workshop for kids

EBRU is an old Persian technique that uses the water’s surface to create images or patterns, which is then transferred onto paper. The word "EBRU" comes from Turkish and means "sky" or "cloudy".

Paint is spread on the water by using special brushes such that colours do not mix. Then, by using metal sticks or brushes you form models and shapes. When the image is complete, one can simply transfer it on a special paper sheet by placing it on the coloured water.

EBRU art is different from other types of painting and drawing techniques. The result may not always be what initially expected but this part is what makes this type of art so unique.

EBRU is enhancing imagination, creativity and, at the same time, puts your patience to test. We hope that more people become interested in this type of art, which is currently little known in Norway. Children will learn the EBRU technique and handle colours and materials used for this, as well as various general ways to create shapes. Then they can explore and use their imagination and create their own artwork / images / patterns.
