Chigirie by Joan Mead-Matsui

Chigirie by Joan Mead-Matsui Are you thinking about taking a Chigirie class? I learned Japanese Torn Paper Collage art 38 years ago and love to share this medium with my students.

You can message me here on Facebook or visit chigirie.com to view my art or register for a class. The possibilities are endless with Chigirie, Japanese torn paper collage art. With only a few sheets of hand-dyed paper, paste and a few other supplies, you can create a collage using this technique. A combination of texture and color result in a richness of watercolor-like, one-of-kind art to decorat

e your home. Chigirie dates back to the Heian period of Japanese history and was often used in conjunction with calligraphy.

Audrey, my Chigirie student, created this Iris during our first session. She did a great job working from a sketch I sent to her. We’ve moved on to a landscape from a photo she took during her recent trip to Australia.

She also wrote a review of our first session.

“Beginning my Chigiri-e journey with Joan has been nothing short of exceptional. Joan goes out of her way to teach clearly and helpfully in a one-to-one setting with demonstrations, extra resources, handy tips, and specific feedback on my progress. The lessons have been invaluable and truly worthwhile. I would sincerely recommend them for English speakers desiring to practice this art form in authenticity.”
