Gyotaku

This lesson brought all levels of students down to the same beginner level. Sometimes the most academically motivated students who seem to "know it all" has the least amount of experience and can then learn from the average student population. Artwork and science links are a great way of bringing home science for all students. Just today, I viewed a real gyotaku print framed in a jeweler's shop. I now appreciate gyotaku more as a teacher since I now know how much skill is needed to produce a great piece of art.

I agree. I also have a new appreciation for this artform. I can't imagine the skill that must go into a "real" print.
