Come celebrate the Year of the Dragon by learning how to write Dragon / 龍 in kanji, as well as, taking home your own artwork on shikishi (色紙). Whether beginner or advanced, all levels are welcomed, however, this course is suggested for adults.
Instruction will be provided by Hekiun Oda Sensei, a calligraphy master from the Genshinkai Calligraphy Association in Japan. Oda Sensei obtained the rank of Shihan (the highest rank in Shodo) in November 2011 and has been awarded in several calligraphy exhibitions throughout Japan.
For Oda Sensei, Shodo is a reflection of the calligrapher’s heart. He explores the beauty of this art form by reimagining his encounters with life and nature with thin or thick lines and powerful or gentle strokes. The moment just before he is ready to move his brush is powerful, as once a brushstroke is made, there is no going back.
All materials and supplies will be provided.
There is a 5 student minimum for this class.
