Calligraphy in Color

Friday-Sunday, March 23-25
with Kazuaki Tanahashi

We will begin by exploring the 1700-year-old wisdom of East Asian calligraphy as we look at ancient Chinese masterpieces. Then we will engage the heart of the learning and creative process by faithfully copying selected ideographs in different styles. While practicing basic aesthetics and techniques of brushwork, we will notice our own imperfections and inner criticisms that usually keep us from fully enjoying each moment. Step by step, we will find ways to increase our enjoyment and serene excitement, which can be applied in everyday life.

Using a variety of paper and brushes of different sizes, we will also experiment with artistic interpretation and expressionistic improvisation. Our materials will include black ink as well as bio-degradable watercolor paint.

No previous experience is needed. Brushes and paper will be provided. To be held in the Wheelwright Center at Green Gulch Farm.

For Overnight Accommodations: Call our toll free number 888.743.9362 or our local number 415.475.9362.

PLEASE NOTE: If you participate in the retreat but are not staying overnight, a donation of $8-$10 per meal is requested.

Kazuaki Tanahashi, born and trained in Japan, is an artist, writer, and peace worker. As a painter and calligrapher, Kaz has had solo exhibitions of his brushwork, performed, and taught worldwide. He has created a genre of one-stroke paintings and multi-color Zen circles. As a calligrapher in the East Asian style, he creates works of large single ideographs.
