Itinerary
You’ll take part in a hands-on Chinese ink painting and calligraphy workshop in a calm setting. After a short introduction to traditional Chinese brush, ink, and paper, your instructor will demonstrate basic brush techniques and explain how ink, water, and movement work together.
You’ll then choose your project: • Paint a traditional fan, or • Decorate a Chinese lantern using calligraphy or ink painting
Step by step, you’ll practice brush strokes, learn how to control ink tones, and explore simple Chinese characters or classic motifs such as flowers, bamboo, or symbols of good fortune. The instructor will guide you individually, helping you adjust your strokes and composition.
