The students will learn about Japanese traditional painting in this course and study basic brush strokes and techniques using bamboo brushes, sumi-ink and oriental paper through practicing calligraphy, and basic painting subjects for beginners.  For more advanced students, different subjects will be provided.  Furthermore, the instructor will introduce her own media called "nihonga" that has not yet been introduced to a wide audience in the United States.  The students will learn about special dry pigments called Iwa-enogu and Suhi-engu (made of minerals and other natural things), the glue called nikawa (made of animal skin and bone) and much more.  This is an opportunity to experiment with new techniques, mediums and tools while exploring your own vision in art making.
