With decades of dedicated study in Chinese calligraphy, ink painting and fine art during her time in Taiwan, Iris has garnered a multitude of accolades, honing her skills in this art form. In addition, she has developed a strong foundation in Calligraphy, which is a significant part of her experience.
It is not just traditional Chinese writing or painting; it offers a calm and relaxing moment. It transports you to a mindful state through beautiful dynamic brushstrokes.
Join us for enriching experience that blends culture and inspiration.
Iris Liao-Attwood honed her fine art and calligraphy skills when she was nine in Taiwan and pursued further academic studies in art in London, and art has been a significant part of her life. Art is a life style, which stimulate one's inner soul, bringing joy and peace to the mind. It's not merely about creating by hand, but also about experiencing it, engaging with nature, enduring hardship, and learning new things in life. Creating art is enjoyable, but it also serves as a form of self-therapy and meditation.
Iris doesn't see herself solely as a calligrapher or a painter, but also a creator. She is passionate about using her skills and guiding wonders to create something marvellous in the world of ink art.
Tea, in many ways, has strong associations with Chinese art, including its philosophy and technological metaphors.
As for the tea tasting session, Iris is a tea lover. She used to drink tea which made by her father daily. At one point, she had an unexpected revelation intangible and magical impact of tea. Later, she learned knowledge from her father, who had sought out and acquired the skills of making a good cup of tea from tea farmers and tea shops. She is excited to share with you the charm and secrets of Taiwanese high mountain tea.
