Michiana Calligraphy Guild (4/22/2026)
Michiana
Calligraphy Guild hosted this past March 7th, instructor Sherrie Lovler, for her workshop
called Wabi-Sabi. We enjoyed her artistic blend of Japanese magic that honors
and sees beauty in things that are worn, weathered, imperfect and
impermanent. She encouraged us to this creative process of
letting the universe flow through us, into our hands holding the brush or tool,
and to be one with our own energy to make timeless Enso (timeless circles) and
other designs. She demonstrated elements
of design using sumi ink, walnut ink, watercolor paint mixes, embellishments of
red or golds, adding pan pastels shading and the importance of “white space”. .
It
was a wonderful afternoon filled with creativity and friendship. We all learned to let things go and just inspire
each other. The prospect of enjoying
more of this process and expanding our Qi (Chi), also know as our life
force, vitality and energy is very intriguing. We would recommend Sherrie
Lovler’s classes to anyone interested in expanding their thought process in
their artwork.
Some
of our artwork is shown for your enjoyment.
