In this class, students were given a historical overview of Chinese ink painting with demonstrations and special presentations to give an understanding of this distinctive genre that has such a rich visual language. Through learning and practicing specific techniques, students have developed their own unique visual expressions. This exhibition is a testament to their accomplishments.
