Master the art of Nihonga (traditional Japanese painting) with artist and teacher Maria Tanikawa. She’ll show you how to mix natural pigments made from minerals, clay and oyster shells; how to use washi paper as a canvas; how to outline your drawing with sumi ink; and more. All materials are provided and each session takes about two hours.
