Art Instruction Book - CALLIGRAPHY - Mindful Artist: Sumi-e Painting by Virginia Lloyd-Davies

In this book artists will learn about mindfulness in art and how to use art to practise mindfulness, and then create their own sumi-e paintings using the exercises, creative prompts, and step-by-step projects.

Japanese ink wash painting, or sumi-e, has a long history that began centuries ago with Buddhist monks, who created sumi-e paintings as a means for practising mindfulness and sharing their beautiful art.

Walter Foster’s new Mindful Artist series encourages artists to focus on the creative process without worrying about the end result, so that they can view art as an inspiring, relaxing, and meditative experience.
