Geeky sumi-es

A sumi-e (or sumie) is a Japanese art form; an ink wash painting. Ink wash paintings were developed in China during the Tang Dynasty and it was the 8th century poet Wang Wei who was first credited for adding colour to existing ‘literati paintings’.

These geeky sumi-es are the work of the American collective ‘MyCKs‘. Thats the name given to work produced by a mother and two daughters working on the project together. They even have a studio at re-mycks.com and, better still, an etsy store where you can buy these great designs.
