Japanese painting workshop: draw using traditional ink and paper

2022.08.11(Thu)

Overview

The workshop invites you to try creating a piece of drawing using the traditional techniques of Japanese painting.

You will find special paints and pigments that have been used in Japanese paintings for centuries, such as mineral-based rock ink and seashell powder known as gofun, together with gold in foil and paste. Your task is to prepare the gofun powder, mix the mineral pigments with a glue, and draw plum flowers on a piece of paper lined with gold leaves, just like the design of the famous Red and White Plum Blossoms!
