Nikka Yuko Japanese Garden is pleased to present "The Sumi-e Paintings of Yoshiko Hirano".

Yoshiko Hirano began studying Sumi-e painting later in life and went on to create artwork for more than 30 years. Her paintings beautifully capture nature, emotion, and movement through expressive brushwork and minimalist design.

We invite guests to experience this thoughtful and inspiring exhibit while exploring the peaceful atmosphere of the Garden. Hirano's works can be seen inside the Bunka Centre and the Pavillion.
