UPDATE
The first session of the Shui Mo: Chinese Painting Workshop, which is originally scheduled for April 23, has been moved to May 7.
Release your inner artist, calm your mind, and meet new friends this summer through Yuchengco Museum’s Saturday workshop on Shui Mo: Traditional Chinese Painting. Pieh Tsai Shiu-Yuin (Arsenia Lim) will teach the ten-Saturday class, which begins on April 23 at 2:00 p.m. The workshop is open to intermediate students with painting experience. To pre-register, call Yuchengco Museum at 889-1234 or email [email protected].
In this fun painting class for adults, Ms. Lim will demonstrate traditional Chinese painting techniques and coach participants as they create their own brush paintings, with a focus on dahlia, narcissus, azalea, and bougainvillea flowers, as well as grapes. Workshop fee is P6,500, which does not yet include materials. Supplies can be purchased from the instructor on the first session.
Ms. Lim maintains strong bonds to three places: China, where she traces her ancestral roots; Taiwan, where she received her university education and art training; and the Philippines, her birthplace and family residence. She has been teaching Chinese painting full-time since the mid-1960s, and has been conducting her Shui Mo painting classes at Yuchengco Museum for ten years.
Yuchengco Museum is located at RCBC Plaza, Corner Ayala and Sen. Gil J. Puyat Avenues, Makati City.
