Join us for some Japanese painting where you will be taught how to paint onto a Silk Fan. This is a beginner friendly workshop suitable for all levels!
Explore your creative side and discover new techniques with this fun workshop experience.
Learn from an experienced local artist, who'll teach you how to paint using traditional materials like bamboo brushes, Sumi Ink, Gansai Tambi 顔彩耽美 (Traditional Japanese colours) & Gold Leaf.
No two workshops are the same, we will bring along a selection of seasonal references from a variety of Japanese art movements such as Ukiyo-e, Rinpa School as well as many Japanese contemporary artists. We also bring along a variety of different materials to suit the topic of the day.
This painting class is suitable for beginners as well as those with a little more artistic experience, so don't worry if it's your first time. Your teacher, Ula will be on hand to provide guidance and answer any questions. The teacher Ula Fung is a local artist with over 15 years of teaching experience.
