The graceful simplicity of Sumi-e, Japan's classic painting style, is admired around the world. This follow-up to the best-selling The Sumi-e Book demonstrates how to take the style's classic brushstrokes to a new level, where creativity is inspired by deeply felt memories and spiritual expression. After a brief account of its history, philosophy and greatest masters, the author reviews the basic strokes and their variations, then puts it all together to demonstrate the Sumi-e art of dream journey painting.
