This fun and engaging junior Chinese painting course is designed for children aged 7-10 with no prior experience. Over 10 weeks, students will explore the basics of traditional Chinese painting through a variety of exciting topics, such as animals, flowers, and simple landscapes.

In the first few lessons, students will be introduced to the unique tools and materials used in Chinese painting, including brushes, ink, and rice paper.

Through fun and interactive exercises, the children will start by painting simple objects like leaves, fish, or flowers, focusing on control and stroke technique.
As the course progresses, students will practice more detailed subjects, learning how to capture the essence of different animals, such as birds and fish, or plants like bamboo. These lessons will introduce them to key elements of composition and the importance of balance in Chinese painting. The children will explore both freehand (写意) techniques, allowing them to express their creativity, and basic methods of color blending to add vibrancy to their artwork.
Each lesson will be structured in a way that encourages creativity and allows young artists to express themselves while learning the basics of this ancient art form. By the final weeks, students will combine the skills they’ve learned to create their own simple yet beautiful Chinese painting, bringing together elements of nature, animals, and vibrant colors.
At the end of the course, students will have gained a foundational understanding of traditional Chinese painting techniques and will have created a personal portfolio of their artwork. This course aims to inspire creativity, boost confidence, and introduce young learners to the rich tradition of Chinese art in an engaging and supportive environment.
