The University of Macau (UM) Cheong Kun Lun College recently organised a course in Chinese brush painting for students. The event aimed to promote Chinese traditional culture among college members. Outstanding works created by students are now exhibited in the college. The instructor was the renowned Chinese painter and calligraphist Ieong Keang Sang from Macao.
Designed for students with no prior knowledge of Chinese brush painting, the course provided an opportunity for participants to learn the basic techniques, including how to paint with brushes and black ink, execute brush strokes professionally, as well as draw different subjects, especially the ‘Four Gentlemen’, namely plum blossom, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum. In the final stage, the students learned how to paint with coloured ink.
