– For the materials, it is difficult to shop around freely in this COVID-19 situation so I made an “alternative” list so that you can start now. Please see below.
– The class has limited seats and we paint step by step and it adapts to all levels. Previous knowledge is not necessary. You complete a few final works of each theme.
– In the class, we will introduce the materials that are selected to teach traditional Sumi-e, Japanese painting art correctly and where to buy them online.
– The teacher is Japanese and has a teacher certificate of Sumi-e from the International Sumi-e Association in Tokyo.
If you want to continue Sumi-e, we practice a theme in one or two classes. When you practice all the subjects of the basic course and all the final works of each subject are presented, you will receive a certificate of completion and you go up to the advanced level course.
