"Ebru" has long been the name given to the authentic Turkish art of marbling paper and to the marbled papers produced by ebru artists.
In traditional Turkish Ebru, all kinds of natural dying material which is not fading in light, not containing acids and not soluble in water are used.
One of the most, if not the most, famous ebru artist Ozkan Alagoz, from Turkey, will be with us during Turkic Cultures and Children's Festival . Mr. Alagoz was born in 1970/Kutahya. With the support of worldwide painter Ahmet Yakuboglu and international ceramic artist Mehmet Gursoy, he applied the Ebru art on ceramic and tile objects. He created excellent crafts on this art branch.

To see his famous crafts, you need just to come to the Turkic Cultures and Children's Festival  in Houston on September 8-9,2007.
