This course will introduce you to the intriguing and amazingly addictive Japanese ink and watercolour painting style.
“…In order to get a clear sense of what ink painting is all about, I think it is useful to look at the differences between this style and Western painting. The goal of classical Western painting is to depict the world and its objects as realistically as possible…Ink painting uses none of these aids. Even though it, too, depict a view of the world, its goal is not to produce a realistic picture of it, but rather an expression of the perception a painter wants to convey. It is an attempt to capture, in condensed form, the essence of an object, a person, or a landscape as seen through the eyes of the painter. For that reason, suggestion plays a key role. Suggestion and simplification in a painting imply reality…”
