Asian Brush Painting: BeginnerArts and CraftsWhen executed with masterful technique, a single ink brushstroke is capable of conveying vitality, delicacy, and contemplation—the essence of Chinese philosophy and spirit. It is this “life force,” or chi (pronounced chee), that the artist aspires to capture and express through brush painting. Unlike European-trained artists, those trained in traditional Chinese brush painting techniques do not aim to create a realistic rendering of a subject’s external appearance. Instead, they seek to capture its inner spirit and mindfulness—practices that help prevent dementia, promote longevity, and support good health. A $30 supply fee will be collected the first night for all required supplies (3 brushes, ink, 60 sheets of rice paper) unless you already have them. Cash or Check only2026 Fall Adult Catalog -
