Gyotaku Workshop w/ Desmond Thain || $75

Come join us at Friends & Faire and learn the beautiful art of Gyotaku - Japanese fish printing with local Hawaii artist Desmond Thain. In this interactive, hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the basics of how to print the fish. The print is quickly made while the fish is still cool. The black print captures the details and shape on Washi paper. You’ll then add color with acrylic inks. The final step includes painting the eyes to bring the fish back to life.  The workshop will also consist of basic gyotaku techniques, including the do's and don’ts, tips and tricks, and how to prepare the fish so that it can still be enjoyed afterward. 

All materials are included and the workshop will be held at Friends & Faire at 1980 Main st. #4 Wailuku, HI 96793 (Behind Native Intelligence- free parking available).  BYO beer or wine to sip on and food…
