Mindful Artist: Sumi-e Painting

Master the Meditative Art of Japanese Brush Painting

Virginia Lloyd-Davies

Description

Mindful Artist: Sumi-e Painting teaches you to create your own beautiful, Japanese-inspired ink wash paintings while cultivating a mindful approach to making art.

Mindfulness remains an essential element of sumi-e painting, allowing artists to focus on your surroundings, live in the moment and feel the process reducing your stress. The author encourages you to create art from a reflective point of view – an inspiring, relaxing experience that emphasizes the creative process, rather than the end result. The book will help you move past creative obstacles, like a perfectionist attitude toward making art or self-defeating concerns about your personal talent and abilities.
