This hands-on introductory program invites participants to explore the fundamentals of traditional techniques, including brush control, ink application, and composition.

Chinese watercolor painting is a graceful and expressive art form that emphasizes simplicity, balance, and the beauty of nature. Using soft brushstrokes, ink, and delicate washes of color, artists capture landscapes, flowers, and animals with a focus on movement and spirit rather than fine detail.

No prior experience is needed—just a willingness to experiment, relax, and enjoy the creative process.  All supplies provided.
