The whole class was a blast! We learned about the origins of the painting, different techniques, and other aspects of Japanese culture.

The instructor, Yuta, was a very knowledgable, funny man, and a fantastic teacher... more! Eager to share said knowledge, and make the class as fun as possible.

The class itself, was super chill, and relaxing, as sumie should be. The gallery is full of Yuta's father's paintings, and helps create a calm, and beautiful environment to paint in!

If you're in Tokyo, then defiantly give this class a try! It' so much fun. The gallery is in a great area too, perfect for book lovers.

surprising that i can better understand asian art... its history and art techniques, now art in Japan is more meaningful,, which makes my stay here more enjoyable..

The Studio location was easy to find using details provided.
From the moment I arrived I was welcome, the class and lesson was prepared.

The teacher was knowledgeable in the history of Sumi’e; his English was excelle... morent and he engaged my interest, the process was explained well and he gauged well my ability.

I left the lesson pleased with what I had learnt and excited to continue learning more and experimenting with Sumie.

I would definitely recommend this class as a must do cultural experience:

Value for money, honestly I would happily have paid more, the ability and experience of the teacher was excellent.

A great afternoon ..easy to find art gallery location lovely fun tutor, we did 5 paintings (my favourite was the bamboo), and my 16 yet son loved it. Best value activity we did in Japan.

easy to find, great host, fun cultural activity. my son (16) and I really enjoyed this. great value for money too and we got to take our art home.

I would love to do this again to paint some more pictures. The instructor was very friendly, the session was relaxed and fun!
