Participants will be able to experience Freehand Yuzen coloring techniques, and create their own Edo-style hand-painted paper lanterns, and also to try on a kimono at MOSHI MOSHI BOX, Harajuku Information Center.
Freehand Yuzen coloring involves using a configuration diagram to draw the base design, applying color to the base design, and finishing the design. In this program, you will use Yuzen processes to apply the color to the base design on a 100% silk handkerchief. You will learn how to dilute the resin paints and apply the colors with a small brush. You can take the original handkerchief home with you.
