Wabi Sabi is a Japanese aesthetic. This Japanese aesthetic is a

beauty of things imperfect, incomplete and impermanent…rustic,

earthy, simple, textured, and organic. Wabi Sabi is deeply connected

to nature, the passage of time and cycle of life and seasons.

On the first morning, everyone will go out into nature to

collect leaves, sticks, rocks, shells… and/or bring nature collected

from home. They will then hand paint Japanese washi (provided

by the instructor) papers using nature as stencils to mimic

the patterns and textures found outside. They can also use rubber

stamps, stamping tools, and stencils. On the second day,

the artist will learn simple compositions and design elements to

create collages. On the 3rd day they can continue with collage

OR templates and tag board will be provided to make a box with

a lid to hold some of their nature collections as well as an accordion

style book, with tags. Our connection to nature will be

complete.
