Sumi-e Watercolor Impressions

Sumi-e Watercolor Impressions

High Places by Casey


Morning by Casey

As many of you that read my posts over the years know, I am a college instructor as well as a sumi artist. Well, I have great news today! My grades were turned in yesterday at the college which has freed me up to do more art this summer. I am very excited about that!

These two Sumi-e Watercolor Impressions were created yesterday on the first day of my summer vacation. I hope you enjoy seeing them. Using watercolor paper, sumi (ink), and Japanese watercolors. My sketches are minimalist. My painting philosophy is "Less is More'. 

I was taught this way of thinking in art college when I attended Chouinard Art School in Los Angeles. It was in Mr. Moore's design class that I first learned it. That was a long time ago. However, as I progressed toward my passion of CBP (Chinese Brush Painting) or in Japan called Sumi-e, this way of thinking about painting stayed with me and has served me well.
 
These images are available from my Fine Art America site. 
 
If you have the time, I would love for you to visit my art website. It's quite nice!
