Join esea ArtClub on Thursday, 14th November, starting at 11 am for an engaging and free creative workshop tailored for East and Southeast Asian elders aged 50 and above.
Under the guidance of creative practitioner Xincai Tan, participants will have the opportunity to craft their own interpretations of the orchid. During the session, participants will be learning how to paint each part of the orchid including the flowers, sterns, leaves, and roots using different strokes. Furthermore, they will understand a few principles of inscription in Chinese Traditional painting, especially for orchid forms. This session will be a space of nurturing their painting skills to create beautiful and meditative art forms of orchids independently.
