About Suibokuga/Sumie
Paintings in India ink are called sumie in Japanese. Sumie only use India ink and do not use any other pigments. Among sumie, paintings that use various techniques of shading and gradation are called suibokuga in Japanese. Shading and gradation can be obtained through changing the amount of water added to the ink. Ink painting, which was introduced from China to Japan in ancient times, became well-known in the Kamakura period (from 1185 to 1333), and then enjoyed great popularity in the Muromachi period (from 1333 to 1568). It is well-known that a Zen priest named Sesshu, who was actively engaged in India ink painting in the 15th and the 16th centuries, developed the Chinese style of India ink painting into a typically Japanese style of landscape painting that is called sansuiga. The subjects of suibokuga include people, flowers, and birds too.
