About this event
Japanese ink painting, or sumi-e, is the embodiment of Japanese aesthetics. Using just simple black ink and carefully curated white space, sumi-e captures the timeless beauty and complexity of the natural world. Rooted in centuries of tradition, sumi-e teaches artists to work with restraint rather than abundance — a single, deliberate brushstroke can suggest the weight of a mountain or the bend of a bamboo stalk.
In this class, students will explore essential brush techniques and traditional subjects while discovering the quiet, meditative discipline behind this timeless art form. Date: 12/12/2026 Time: 10:00AM – 12:30PM JFGM Member $30 | Non Member $45 *Admission included, registration required *Refunds will not be given less than 7 days before the program
