11:17 was totally fixed waiting for your 1 stroke technique with the biff brush and it was edited out!
@LarkinGreenStudio25 күн бұрын
Thank you for watching. I'm not sure why that was edited out, what I did there was lower the brush softly onto the paper (right edge then left edge, and with one breath paint the length of the paper. If you want to try a free class, you could contact the Japanese Culture Center in Chicago-I am teaching The Bamboo Path this February. (I will also demonstrate this in The Year of The Serpent class this coming Sunday or Tuesday.) If I can find an example I will post it-it might be in one of my tree videos...or branches...

Thanks, I have sumi ink and indi inks. Are there differences in brush cleanup using these two inks? There seems to be a wider range of colored inks for India Inks. However=. I have been told that India Inks destroys brushes because the soot binds together making the brush unusable , do Sui Inks do the same to brushes over the long term? For sample I have a Princeton Neptune 6, Black Velvet 3/4 Oval, Princeton Neptune 1/2 and Da Vinci CasaNeo , these brushes are quite soft, I was wondering if Sumi Ink can be used with them. and also if you have any experience using India Ink with brushes and your thoughts? Thanks

Romel, Thank you for your questions. Sumi-e ink is very different, it is made with soot and animal glue making it permanent. It does not harm brushes with proper care: rinse the ink out until it runs clear and hang from the string on the end of the brush so that the water does not collect in the ferrel and eventually ruin the glue that holds the animal hairs in place. I do not use India ink with my brushes. Many inks have driers and acrylics in them that will ruin the brush hairs over time.

Awesome video! I want to buy some brushes to start practicing kanji calligraphy. And don't want to mess up the brush. I've been using pentel brushes which are great but its time to step it up. I also want to try out ink sticks. Looks so soothing. I also want to use the brush for Hangul.

when u make a painting, mix the ink from scratch (1:19) but why though? it doesn't seem to make any diff' . . . maybe it's like a ritualistic thingy?
@LarkinGreenStudio Жыл бұрын
There is a difference in the quality of the ink when you mix it yourself by hand. Not only do you get a more beautiful gradation in the values, many liquid inks are now made with motor oil and bleed during the mounting process. Mixing your own ink also lends itself to a meditative practice

This was very nice. When the brushes have been used enough that they become too open haired when dry and "dead" when wet can you stiffen them with a weak cornstarch or rice starch mix?
@LarkinGreenStudio3 жыл бұрын
yes, you can do that. In addition, I sometimes will stiffen the hairs with rice starch if I want to use a brush for small script or fine detail. Thank you for the question

@@LarkinGreenStudio How much rice starch ratio to water?
@LarkinGreenStudio2 жыл бұрын
@@lisafred1362 you can use it straight from the Nori Paste mixture and it will continue to dilute as you add more water. It actually will depend on how stiff you want your brush to be. You can experiment and find the right combination. Sometimes, you may just want to apply the paste directly with your fingers from the belly of the brush to the ferrule (where the hairs are attached to the handle). another application using rice starch is to add a little bit (less than a 1/4 tsp ) to your water to give you crisp strokes.

@LarkinGreenStudio4 жыл бұрын
Thank you for your comment. I clean my brushes right after using by rinsing in cold or cool water. The ink already has glue mixed in the ink. I do not add additional glue in the ink except on rare occasions. enjoy your practice!

the brush is like a ballerina slipper, you move it up and down to make the stroke thicker as you press down, thinner as you lift up. this is a gentle movement. the tip of the brush is the ballerina's toe, you press more to the "ball of the foot" rarely pressing the entire brush (slipper) all the way down
