The Brush Dances

In this book Roslyn Levin, SCA describes her process of Sumi-e painting through words and images.

"The artist depicts the essence of what he/she is trying to portray with as few brushstrokes as possible ---simply and elegantly, but with strength in each line or shade.

Sumi-e, Japanese brushstroke painting, is a mindfulness meditation. It is a metaphor for our journey through life. It is a way to grow spiritually, one brushstroke at a time."
