We held a lovely sumi session with Tim Lowly’s advanced painting class at North Park University on Tuesday afternoon. First ever sumi session preceeded by a full explanation of how sumi ink club works + slide lecture of past projects. We were excited to talk a bit about the recent and not so recent history of collaborative art and to share the work of some of our favorite artists: CoBrA, niki de st. phalle, jean tinguely, gelitin, relational aesthetics, learning to love you more, paper rad, harrell fletcher, shobo shobo, and many more. Here are the drawings: day/night.



Sumi Ink Club held a special colorful session at one of our favorite spots in Chicago, Golden Age. We were joined by many new chicago friends–thanks to everyone who contributed to these drawings. We would like to publish a little book, and Marco suggested that Golden Age may turn the drawings into a flag to hang above the entryway of the store. The drawings will be on display live and in real life at Golden Age for a little while if you are walking by.



We’ll be sumi-ing in chicago this sunday, August 31st. Join us and make a drawing if you are in Chicago! See you there! Golden Age

A fashion collaboration with Smockshop is set to unveil this September–here;s a lime shoulder piece by Sumi Ink Club to be incorporated into one of Michelle Brunnick’s designs.
A sneak peek at some of the custom garments that Sumi Ink Club is working on for Smockshop.



We painted all day and into the night joined by many Sumi Ink Club members, old and new. Our conclusion–the future of transportation looks ancient, lots of walking and brooms.



The bottom tier of the mural is now complete. Now all that remains are the upper canopy and the middle section. We will reconvene saturday afternoon from 4-8pm and sunday from 12-6 to paint. Everyone is welcome to join in and add to the mural. Sumi Ink Club is all ages, all humans, all styles. The theme is the future of transportation.


The mural is getting denser and denser. We were joined by many amazing new members of sumi ink club–including Victor, a man who moved to America just two days prior. Painting a mural on the theme of future transportation is a pretty promising way to spend your third day in the United States. Welcome.
The door is open–anyone who would like to add to the mural is handed a brush and a cup of paint.
