Workshop in the art of Chinese brush painting with Edinburgh-based Chinese artist Chi Zhang focusing on the traditional painting of fish.
Discover the fascinating art of Chinese brush painting and try your hand at this expressive art form with renowned Chinese brush painting artist Chi Zhang. This workshop is suitable for beginners or people who have painting experience but have never tried Chinese brush painting techniques before. No prior knowledge is necessary, you should simply be keen to learn and willing to hold a brush. All tools and materials used during the workshop will be supplied. The cost of the workshop is £15.
Fish represent wealth and prosperity in Chinese culture. Koi fish, either black or red, also represent wealth, success and popularity. Using Chinese soft brushes, ink and colours, the participants will be shown how to achieve wonderful paintings in the style of Chinese old masters.
