THE ART OF AHMET SARAL

I first learned of Ahmet Saral's work, from an article about

him, in the Sky Life Magazine. As a marbler myself, for

thirty three years and as a collector of marbling for almost

twenty five years, it is important to me that the examples

I seek for my collection, be work I consider to be not only

excellent craftsmanship, but also demonstrate artistic

sensibility, be unique, distinctive, and instantly

recognizable, as the work of the individual who created

it. The photographs of Mr. Saral's work seemed to meet

my criteria.

Therefore I initiated a correspondence with him, in order

to learn more about him, and to obtain examples of his

work. I discovered that he is a serious marbling artist.

He continues to use the same methods and the same

materials as the old Turkish Masters of the 16th and 17th

Century, while bringing to it his own creative vision. His

figurative marblings demonstrate great skill, control,

infinite patience, and are indeed uniquely his own.

I am proud to have his work in my collection, and hope

his work will gain ever expanding appreciation.

His marbled art is worthy of more attention.
