Join this unique painting class in Oxford and discover the art of Chinese brush painting, learning the techniques behind this beautiful, centuries-old art form.
You'll be guided through the fundamentals of brushwork, ink control and composition, learning how varying pressure and water content build the delicate lines, washes and tones that give Chinese brush painting its distinctive character. With gentle step-by-step guidance, you'll then put these techniques into practice to create your own traditional lotus flower piece – a design perfectly suited to the summer season, capturing the elegance and calm this art form is known for.
All materials are provided, and no previous experience is needed – you'll be supported at every stage, from your very first brushstroke through to your finished piece. With a maximum of 10 people, the session stays intimate and relaxed, giving you plenty of one-to-one guidance along the way.
By the end, you'll take home your own hand-painted lotus masterpiece, along with a newfound appreciation for one of the world's most meditative and expressive painting traditions.
Only private sessions are available now for this workshop.

Hi there, I'm Ruihan, enthusiastic about Chinese painting. I specialize in the genre of huaniao (flower and bird).
I tailor my class to students' needs and gradually build up the skills they need to do more complicated works in the future. The teaching content includes brush control, ink control, and coloring techniques. I also blend my teaching with introducing key concepts and philosophy you find in Chinese painting, so that you not only replicate the example works but also know why they are painted in particular ways.
