This class offers a step-by-step approach to traditional Japanese Sumi-e painting. Each class will focus on one subject -- plant, animal, or landscape. Use of a Bamboo brush expands both our drawing and painting vocabulary. Seven basic strokes will be demonstrated and practiced during each set of classes. The fluidity of brushstroke developed in this class can inform and enhance many different drawing and painting practices.
