During this peaceful and creative workshop, you will learn the traditional Japanese art of sumi-e (ink painting) using brush and ink on washi paper. Guided by an experienced instructor, you’ll explore simple yet expressive brushstrokes to depict classic motifs like pine, bamboo, plum blossoms, or chrysanthemums—symbols of Japanese beauty and resilience.
You can choose to paint on either a traditional shikishi board or a set of three round coasters, both of which make meaningful and portable souvenirs. This experience is beginner-friendly and perfect for those interested in Japanese aesthetics and mindful expression.
