Fundamentals of Japanese Ink Painting: The Four Gentlemen


Adult Enrichment / Fine Arts & Crafts -

Learn several basic techniques of painting with Sumi ink and brushes to create expressive and meditative paintings of nature. Our subjects will include the plum blossom tree, orchid, chrysanthemum, and bamboo, which are referred to as “The Four Gentlemen” in classical ink painting. We will find inspiration in the beautiful master paintings of the Edo period (1603–1868) in Japanese art. New and returning students are welcome.
