i declare it is time to share



These wonderful drawings were made during a summer session at PS 19 in Williamsburg, Brooklyn organized by Ms. Denise Schatz and her students. One of the boldest and most incredible chapters of Sumi Ink CLub to date, a total of 60 sumi ink artists ranging in age from 5 -9 made 6 large-scale, collaborative drawings in one day with markers. This session’s theme: superheroes + how sharing can be heroic.
Drawn by 10 hands. Many thanks to participants luke, sarah c., david, and thomas. So many amazing humans strolling through the door from around the world. If you see a sign on sunset blvd that says “Sumi Ink Club” follow the arrow, walk through the door, and pick up a brush. This is what can happen. See you in the future!!!
