Also, at the workshop, Nobuyo Sakakibara will show you how to use mineral pigments and metal foils, and you will paint your own images of a starry sky or the universe on small square poetry cards.Japanese painting uses very traditional Japanese art materials. She paints with Japanese paper, glue, and water using natural ore and colored glass, that is,mineral pigments made by crushing gems, stones, shells and the like.
This will be the first time many of the participating artists will exhibit their work in New York. This exhibition will be a good opportunity for you to get to know these new Japanese artists.

Live Painting Performance JCAT Artist
Colorhythm Risa (Mixed Media)https://www.jcatny.com/colorhythmrisa
Not only in Japan but also in the United States, Britain, Korea, and elsewhere overseas, Colorhythm Risa attracts audiences with her distinctive painting techniques that incorporate the movement of dance.
Her uses of vibrant colors bring power, and her movements that freely incorporate dances of various genres also give color to her performances, captivating and exciting audiences.
Colorhythm Risa uses her hands, sponges – sometimes her entire body – to apply color across the canvas from end-to-end. Her physical and facial expressions of various human emotions and feelings add further layers of depth to her performances.
Hers is a style that, through colors, movements, expressions, and the like, and always without using words, gives exciting performances that are deeply moving to people all over the world, regardless of age or sex, race or nationality. And by presenting an impressive experience of "showing the process of drawing," she all the more strongly delivers her messages to the viewer.
Through her works, Colorhythm Risa wants to connect people and societies, and to make art more accessible to the world while expanding its potential to be more fun and more familiar.

Japanese Painting Workshop by Nobuyo Sakakibara (Painter)
Nobuyo Sakakibara is a Japanese painter living in Aichi Prefecture.
Her paintings are characterized by expressions of color and a graceful style that make use of her experience of growing up in a land rich in nature.
Nobuyo graduated from Nagoya Institute of Art and Design where she majored in Japanese painting. She has been making Japanese paintings for over 30 years. Since 1988 she has presented at numerous solo exhibitions, group exhibitions, and public exhibitions.
Her work has been recognized by her peers, beginning with the 2004 Toyohashi Citizens' Exhibition Grand Prix, and most recently in 2018, receiving the Matsumoto Seitarou Award for excellent work. A member of the Aichi Art and Culture Association and of other art groups as well, she is also a jury member for art exhibitions.
Her Japanese paintings use ancient, time-honored Japanese art materials – mineral pigments made by crushing natural ore and colored glass, gemstones, used with Japanese paper, glue and water.
Nobuyo paints love and beauty. Her paintings are colorfully expressed by borrowing the figures of flowers and people.
From her paintings, one can feel a connection with the unwavering force from ancient times, the flow of time, and the expanse of space.
Nobuyo’s unique Japanese paintings have charmed and delighted people from all over the world.
