Chinese brush painting is about opening the mind to a completely new way of creating imagery. Unlike in western art, simple birds, flowers, leaves and insects are created by the stroke of a brush. Enjoy a full day of Chinese brush painting whilst looking at one of the most popular flowers in Chinese Art. The peony is the flower of China, known as “Grande Corniche”
Today we will explore the brush strokes that make up the petals and leaves. From these exercises we will design a small scroll. Insects will make up part of the days studies.
Tutor will provide all materials for this workshop. This cost is included in your fee.
If you have Chinese brushes and paints from previous workshops,please bring these along.
