Get creative with some Sumi-e brush painting. Learn how to paint seasonal topics in an expressive style using Sumi Ink and Bamboo brushes.
This class will begin with an introduction to the materials as well as a demonstration for you to follow. The workshop will be split into multiple sessions, each beginning with a teacher demonstration. Each time you will try a different topic which will involve different types of techniques and brush strokes. The first section will be simpler and the difficulty will increase slightly each time.
