We aren’t leaving any animals out of this fun workshop that will introduce you to Sumi-e/Japanese ink painting!Learn techniques for ink painting animals while bringing life to your brushstrokes. Create in a playful environment. No experience necessary. If you’ve painted sumi-e before-you will learn some new techniques.
