What to expect

We wil talk about you, your name, your interests, and the things that are important to you. Together, we wil choose a Japanese kanji character that represents your story.
You wil practice it with traditional brush and ink and create your final artwork on a beautiful shikishi board. Take your original
artwork home as a special memory of Kyoto.
