Chinese Brush Painting Demonstration




Chinese Brush Painting Demonstration at Edinburgh Corn Exchange Exhibition Centre
23th April 2009
The painting process starts out with the application of ink to frame out the forms. Later, color can be applied in a wash process. The brush stroke must be applied with deliberation and without hesitation. In the ideal process, the forms should just flow naturally from the mind out of the brush onto the paper. The painting process itself has a spiritual dimension to it. It requires a mental state of effortless focus, a Zen-state of calm and awareness.
