ILLUSTRATED POETRY WORKSHOP
On Monday, March 10th (6-8pm), come to the library for an Illustrated Poetry workshop. In this workshop we will be reading and writing haikus, which are among the simplest and most elegant forms of poetry. We will then learn how to illustrate our haiku with Japanese ink painting, (sumi-e), the art of painting using brush, ink & thin absorbent “rice-paper”. We will concentrate on painting bamboo trunks, branches & petals.
Don’t let the Japanese names scare you off. We’ll teach you everything you need to know.
NO EXPERIENCE NEEDED.
All materials provided.
Class limited to 15.
Ages 18+
Pre-register for a guaranteed spot by emailing rachelg@scplva.net.
