Ming Chiao

Artist

Ming Chiao Chapter builds on the mission of the Sumi-e Society of America to promote the education and enjoyment of traditional and contemporary ink-brush art using East- Asian tools and materials. While appreciating classical approaches, Ming Chiao also encourages experimentation and non-traditional techniques.

Sumi-e is Japanese for “ink painting,” which originated from Literati Painting in China centuries ago and later spread throughout Japan, Korea, and many other parts of the world including the United States. Contemporary styles range from realistic to abstract.

All Asian brush painters use the same tools and similar brush techniques. The tools are traditionally called “The Four Treasures” — brush, ink stick, ink stone, and rice paper. Watercolors may also be employed. All East Asian brush painters strive to capture the essence or spirit of the subject.

History

Ming Chiao Chapter was founded in 1988 after Lily Weinshilboum returned from studying at the National Academy of Art in Hangzhou, China. She felt that the time was right for a chapter in her home state, and Ming Chiao Chapter was born.
