Wabi Sabi Workshop Pictures from Art and Soul




Wabi-Sabi Workshop at Art and Soul


Art and Soul Portland ended this past Monday. I had a fabulous time teaching two classes and taking two classes. This post shows the amazing work done by a great group of students. I was impressed by their willingness to experiment and have fun, and also by how encouraging they were of each others efforts.

The class worked from their intuition, playing with acrylic paint, re-inkers, alcohol inks, and acrylic inks. They also used paper, fabric, gauze, teabags, netting and other items to enhance their pieces. Each student received a traditional haiku poem that she could use as a prompt, as well as three visual prompts.

Hope you enjoy viewing their work. I certainly enjoyed watching it unfold!
