Summary
The flux sheet description of pure gauge theories proposed by Bardakei and Greensite is extended to include fermionic quark fields defined on the sheet boundaries. The quark fields are sources and sinks of colour flux and the action remains gauge in variant. It is shown that the partition function contains colour singlet contributions with the quantum numbers of mesons, baryons and exotics.
