Chinese Brush Painting

Chinese Brush Painting


For the Chinese brush paintings, we tried out the Chinese brush painting kits and rice paper.  Each brush stroke is done in a specific way, and it took lots of practice to get it down.  It takes patience, but the end results are cool.  We used these to make paintings of bamboo, and I went home and tried to paint them with watercolor.  The watercolor was easier to work with, especially with a the watercolor brush that has the slanted tip.  The paintings in darker color are done with watercolor, and the two lighter ones at the bottom were done with the Chinese brush painting kits and rice paper.
