“Susan Frame is a Sumi-e master with a down-to-earth approach to art. She creates a class environment for learning complex art processes in simple steps.  Her classes support individual learning and expression; focus and fun.

Basically, I adore her as a person and Sumi-e instructor.” –Sumi-e: Colorful Hibiscus
