1. The Beauty of Chance
• Tarashikomi is a traditional Edo-era technique used by Rinpa master Tawaraya Sōtatsu, where natural ink bleeds and overlaps create unique textures.
• Fluid Art & Pouring Art involve pouring paint to let colors flow freely, forming abstract patterns.
👉 Because every piece is unique and there are no “mistakes,” even beginners can create stunning artwork.
