Scroll Exhibition

Through thousands of years of historical development, ink painting derived its unique character from oriental art. It represents a transformation process of observation and meditation of the artist. The vitality and inner experience of the artist flow out of the tip of the brush and the image and artist become one unity.

The purpose of the International Asian Sumi-e Brush Painting Contest and Exhibition held in Japan is to promote art education, and to foster the sense of beauty by encouraging submission of ink brush paintings, so to advance international cultural exchange which will help to build a better and more harmonius global community.

Many of our members have participated in this annual contest. It is a great pleasure to present the artwork of awarded artists for this international competition. The size of scroll is approximately 15 " x 60".
