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 the 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 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.

At the end of your art class, you'll get the chance to stand back and admire your beautiful Japanese painting or you can share your experiences with the group. You'll head home with your completed piece and a new skill that's perfect to practice whenever you're looking to clear your head.
