(2) Compositional skills, brushworks, techniques – through learning:
Our affordable Chinese Ink Painting course provides art instruction and guidance from a foundational level by our professional instructor. This is to bridge any previous knowledge, and to better guide complete beginners through a step-by-step approach.
Perhaps you’ve tried oil painting, or even acrylic painting, but just a disclaimer: Ink painting is nothing like those. Chinese ink painting is more similar to watercolour, and the key to it lies in the poetic feeling it is meant to achieve. The ratio between water and ink is what’s most important here. For those who have not tried this art form, do not hesitate to give it a try – it will open your eyes to a whole new world of creative expression! Despite being one of the oldest mediums to date, Chinese Ink Painting is different from other forms of painting. It relies on the artist’s ability to capture the essence of the subjects and using limited inks and colours to portray it on to a painting. The aesthetic principles of the art form relies heavily on the spirit of the subject, not the likeness of forms.
Chinese Ink Painting is a representation of Chinese Art. Basic ink painting features the water and ink, black and white. Delving deeper into the Chinese Ink Art, there is the meticulous paintings of flowers like peonies and birds, with its vibrant colours. The features are realistic representation close subjects, abstraction of distant subjects, subtle colours and a rich artistic conception.
With a brush loaded with ink and water, compose your paintings on rice paper. Chinese ink painting involves blending and tactful composition, expressing the essence and spiritual elements of the subject matter.

The workshop begins with a brief history and overview of batik, highlighting its cultural significance and various techniques. Participants will then observe a demonstration of applying wax with tjanting tools and dyeing the fabric. Following the demonstration, each participant will design and create their own batik handkerchief, applying wax to create patterns and then dyeing their fabric. The workshop concludes with a group discussion, allowing participants to share their creations and reflect on their learning experience.
