Rose & Bee

Sumi-e, Japanese style ink painting. In order to achieve the Zen simplicity, I have to fully connect with the subject to understand its true nature, which expresses my love of the natural world. The earthy scent of ink and the brush contacting the rice paper engages all of my senses as my brush spontaneously manifest the subject’s spirit. Ellen Miffitt Nine Lives Studio
