Ling Liu is a talented artist working in a range of mediums from the traditional watercolour and ink brush work to textiles.

In this workshop you will discover the art of Chinese Brush Painting, studying the traditional Gongbi style of working that focus's on a meticulous attention to detail.

Gongbi painting is a careful, realistic technique that incorporates the most intricate detail and vivid colour to describe narrative scenes, often featuring figures, and most traditionally, figures of nobility. The very first Gongbi paintings were made over 2000 years ago during the Han Dynasty (206BC – 220AD), a period that brought about both properity and political stability and allowed for a climate that would nurture a significant development in the advancement of Chinese arts.

In this workshop you will explore the technique with bird and flower painting.
