| Additional Information |
Image was scanned from color slide. Note: "East Asian brush painting consists of many styles of painting which originated in China centuries ago and spread throughout Japan and Korea...Essentially all Asian brush painters, regardless of style, use the same tools and similar techniques...The tools which are essential are called the Four Treasures. These are the brush, ink, ink stone and paper. Special brushes made in East Asia are used. The ink is not ink at all but consists of a formula of soot and glue made into a stick by a special process. This in turn is rubbed in water on an ink stone and forms what is called black ink, "sumi", in Japanese."--Sumi-e Society of America website. |
