Yup, I bet it’s pretty weird seeing as an oddity, if you’ve seen this kind of thing before, but I hadn’t heard about paper marbling before. Thanks a lot for setting things right and providing a link. I’ll update the post..

It is quite common and it is odd to see it as an oddity of a Chinese artist painting on water (like saying Swedish artist shoots images on film!) .
