Introduction to Kumiko, Wednesday December 18, 6-10 pm
Kumiko is a specific subset of Japanese woodworking, and a lot of fun for beginners and professionals alike. It involves creating artistic panels out of smaller stock. The only tool you will need is a Japanese chisel, which will be available if necessary for the class, or students can bring their own. Students will make an asa-no-ha or stylized hemp leaf pattern, one of the more important and common patterns.
