As in life, if you make a mistake, you must go on, you cannot cover it up.

Sumi-e informs my painting; I begin with the meditative process, stretching to inhabit my subject matter and leaving the mark on paper with my impression. It is a lovely way to create.

Patricia Larkin Green Sumi-e Artist

Madeleine Stanley-Jossem revealed painting as meditation to me. The sumi-e tradition of Asian ink painting from teacher to student moves in a continuum, with no end to the journey for truth. In sumi-e, the brush reveals your truth. The process is important. I learned hand to hand by observing her gracefully sway with her brush, dipping into her soul and tracing the ink like a gentle breath of life over delicate rice paper. Enjoy the discovery and come with me on my journey…
