Beginning Lessons in Brushwork by Pat Marsello
When: January
This class will focus on technique, discipline, and a growing awareness of
the possibilities between ink, brush, and paper. Brushwork is as old as Asia,
and although my teachers taught me the Chinese way, I have also studied Sumi-e,
or Japanese brushwork for the last twenty years.
These days I paint primarily on clay but the class will be taught on paper,
the way I was taught, through mindfulness and repetition. Brushwork painting
involves dedication and skill but is also, ultimately, a way of life, a way
of "seeing" the world through the simplicity of black and white,
the stroke of a brush and the white space around it.
Price: $200 plus a materials cost for ink stick, ink stone and one happy dot
brush.
Includes: 8 weeks of 3 hour instruction on the three friends: bamboo, pine
and plum, composition and sampling of papers. Classes of 5 students each encourage
personal instruction. All paper is included.
