- We'll start together with a short introduction to Chinese calligraphy, covering different fonts, techniques for holding the brush, etc.
- Following the introduction, we'll proceed with some strokes practice to familiarise everyone with the basics.
- After approximately 30 minutes, participants will have the opportunity to choose which characters they'd like to work on.
- They will then have time to practice their chosen characters before finally writing them on the provided art paper. We are creating bookmarks on the first class and a Chinese scroll on the second class.
