Workshop with Gerard Menzel artist
Sumie ( black ink on
rice paper) is a beautiful way to paint nature and the world in all its beauty
& grace as we see the world in a different Zen light, where the subjects
essence or "kami" spirit is depicted. Zen painting is an artform and
a way of living and breathing through the world. The class will cover Zen
insights, Sumie as Meditation and art practice,
the Zen way of
painting and observation, Zen as philosophy or religion. Regular Sumie classes will be available in the
Newstead area in spring.
The origin of Sumie
dates back to the Southern School of Chinese Zen painting and it was
transplanted to Japan by Esai and Dogen. Used to train the mind, it is one of
the "Zen arts" including ikebana and Shodo.
The practice of
painting is akin to Zen training of the mind body and senses.
Materials $7 or
BYO.
Local Artist Gerard
Menzel studied with Andre Sollier and taught, exhibited in Australia and
overseas as well as lived and studied Aikido in Japan.
