“Learn the art of Sumi-e or traditional Chinese painting. From birds to flowers and landscapes using individual brush strokes on rice paper. You will learn different brushstrokes and be given different exercises to practice the art of Chinese painting. You will then create one/two paintings to take home. These final pieces can include blossom trees, bamboo sticks and leaves, or maybe a mountain scenery” writes Karen Kennedy, Activities Coordinator – Manchester at Royal Voluntary Service.
