Take a short dive into how everyone's art starts with the creation of art supplies with this Mini Project Packet. Here you will learn a short history of, how to make, and the use of Japanese Sumi Ink. Sumi ink was invented around 610 AD in Japan, and has since been produced and utilized for their Kanji calligraphy and art.

Once you've made the ink, use it to write characters, words, and try creating a painting with it! If you've enjoyed this, try creating different inks with berries, flower petals, or walnut shells instead of charcoal.
