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!

Carmel Valley Map 2017 / 2018

Carmel Valley Map 2017/2018

This is the Carmel Valley Map of this quaint little town nestled in the oak trees above Carmel-by-the-Sea in California. The map details all the wonderful restaurants, lodges, art galleries, shops, wineries, etc. in this charming area. 

The map also features the art of local artists in the CVAA Gallery which is located at #2 Chambers Lane. Very talented artists have their artwork displayed there and I am pleased to share that I have a wall there filled with my sumi-e (ink painting).  I am also one of the artists included in this map. Can you see my work on the above image?

Here it is:
