A day in an oasis - As a Turk, I can't believe that I haven't done marbling in all these years. Ahmet is very knowledgeable and very generous in sharing everything he knows. He has created a wonderful environment in his home to give you this experience, you feel like you have entered an oasis with lush green plants, great music, and works of art from which you can draw inspiration from every corner of the house. After showing you the basic techniques, it provides you with all the materials so you can try it yourself. Ending the day with works of art you made is truly priceless. I will go to try this again as soon as possible

Fun workshop, well organised - We had fun learning marbling with Ahmet, he showed us several techniques and we got a chance to make our very own creations with different types of ink. The time flew by and we enjoyed also snacks in his lovely home.

Absolutely amazing - I can't say enough good things about Ahmet and his Ebru workshop. His kindness and patience as a teacher were truly remarkable. He made sure we were comfortable and at ease throughout the experience, and his passion for Ebru was evident in every step of the process.
