Zen Painting I - Japanese Orchids and Dragonflies


Enrichment Classes / Arts & Creativity / Adult / Art -
Summer 2026

This workshop introduces you to Sumi-e [soo-me-ay], the mindful art of Japanese ink painting. Developed by Zen monks, Sumi-e is a form of Impressionism that captures a moment in time and the essence or chi of a subject rather than an exact representation. The key concepts of simplicity and spontaneity are achieved with minimal brush strokes. *All materials will be provided; students who have their own watercolors are encouraged to bring them. Taught by Jane Ryan.

  *$20 Materials Fee Payable to the instructor at class.
