Ink Painting workshop




 

 This Thursday we did an ink workshop with art club!  Here are some of the supplies we used- bamboo brushes, cups for ink, India ink, ink painting examples, and Japanese alphabet sheets.
Next we explored at least 3 different types of brushstrokes: thin, medium, and wide.
 
We then did 3 different experiments: a quick study in Japanese lettering, exploring wet-on-wet painting techniques that create abstract designs, and finally making monochromatic representational paintings using precise brushwork.  Once they did the mandatory explorations, they were able to make a painting of their choice.  It was a huge success!
