[huru420]

[4utubingfun]

I love your work. Have you ever considered painting a Boston Terrier dog?

[VeRiNTrVi367]

he seems to like painting around the "nature" subject, plant life and delicate or meaningful animals, why would he paint a terrier dog? it'd be out of his niche, or rather isn't good enough to be in his niche. terrier dogs shouldn't even be mentioned. ugh.

[UniversumArt]

Wonderful art, dear Kazu! Excellent work!

[crazyzhuzhu]

That is all chinese drawing.

U learn how drawing from chinese

but you can not get the deeply heart from chinese drawing

That's looks like a 5year old child drawing

Hey, if you say such ridiculous things, why don't you try it yourself? I've tried it. Sumi-e takes a lot of practice and patience.

[Keplerne1]

[ChineseCalligraphy]

This one is always good to see, as simple as the composition is.... it is wonderful.

It is an excellent example, I love the leaves graduations also.

[veeevy]

Seems easy when you do it. When I get behind a paintbrush, its hard as hell! :[

Beautiful work!

[greenpanic6]

wow amazing i'm doing a project on sumi-e for my class i wanted to show this

[ryanR71]

TIGHT !!!

[dolcesonata]

hello, can I ask you what kind of brush and paper that you often use? I know nothing about arts but when I saw your videos, I would like to give it a try!

[TheBonnieRose]

Traditional sumi-e is done on rice paper (in sheets, or in a roll,)with special sumi-e brushes, using black ink. You can find sumi-e painting supplies at most art supply stores. Most art stores will sell a variety of brushes, so, you should be able to find a basic cost-effective brush for beginners. :)

[WarpHedgehog]

How can I learn Sumi-e ? I don't think there are any teachers around here :(

[kazushimura]

hello, warp,

the important thing in the beginning is just copy sumi-e which you like.

when you paint some, send the photo of these to me, or upload. I will send comment on that.

[WarpHedgehog]

Oh ok I'll do that. Thx!

[AjisaiAoi]

Kirei! Which kind of paper do you use? I just try it with usual whatercolour-paper but I´m not content with it. In Germany it is difficult to get any rice-paper..:/

You´r Art ist very beautiful!

[kazushimura]

hi, Ajisai san, thanks,

I use normal rice paper,,,but I guess you can't get good one over there...

but, one thing I tried is thick paper for the watercolor paper will work well, please try it. kazu

[Predatorzgz]

Wow and can't say wow enough. I hope you will come by to see some of my work. I love to watch you do this.

[kazushimura]

Hi, thanks, I surely will do,

[dungur]

Thanks for sharing,got inspired to do sumi-e.Thank you for showing the way.

[kazushimura]

You're welcome. Look the second leaf seems behind the first one. (in oil painting, later painted part covers the previous one). This is one of interesting thing of sumi-e drawing.
