Snow Field Sumie Drawing

[dinasaur2]

I like your videos very much but it would be good to know how you make the tones with water & ink. If people could see this it would be a teaching aid too. Seeing you paint with brush is one aspect but the putting the 'two tone' on the brush is another skill. Combining the two on video would be a boon for people wanting learn this art.

luster for You! I wish I could draw like that!

nice illusion, I like it!

we see just light and dark spots, but our eye finds out acquainted shapes and combines them in picture we can explane. It's like magic.

do u know this is a popular ink for tattoo's? it maintains a good quality black as u see some tattoo's have a blue tint over time,but not with sumie

[kazushimura]

hi, gino,

sumi ink is made from mainly either the palm tree or rapeseed.

the palm tree sumi-ink is called blue sumi. I don't know much about tatoo but assume that it should diffrent.

[curtisjohn01]

i notice most sumi e paintings are one color only.can you use watercolor to this?

[ancabttb]

great job!!

[kagowoo]

Kazushimura-san,

may i know what kind of paper material do u usually use for ur sumi-e?

And, can u suggest some paper types which are suitable for sumi-e that can be easily found in stationary shops?

Thx

[kazushimura]

hi, Kagowoo,

If you have rice paper, I guess the thick paper like sketch book one is good for sumi-ink. use rough surface paper so that ink will penetrate

[kazushimura]

hi, thanks for the comments !

it has melted snow in Tokyo, but still chilly these days...

[OckGal]

Haha! Before I read your description, I was gonna ask, "Is it snowing over there?" I'm on the East coast of the US and we had a little snow but it melted when the rain came.

It's beautiful - I was wondering if it were possible to see what you do with your brush when not painting - how you load the ink, shape your brush, use the water, etc.

[kazushimura]

hi, i would try shooting from other angles so that you can see those.

[earth2k8]

Many Thanks!
