Explore the wonders of Chinese brush painting, a traditional style of artmaking rooted in classical technique and spontaneous brushwork. In this hands-on studio course, we learn the Four Treasures—brush, rice paper, ink, and water—as gateways to a rich tradition where every flower, creature, and landscape tells a story. Through step-by-step instruction, we explore expressive strokes and build confidence in our painting skills.

Along the way, we uncover the symbolism, cultural history, and visual poetry that make this art form so deeply rewarding. Chinese Brush Painting is a lifelong pursuit, and each session offers new insights, subjects, and creative possibilities. Designed for both curious beginners and seasoned creatives, no experience is necessary. This course may be repeated often, as fresh material is presented each quarter. ​
