March Paint In--Chinese Brush Painting with Sharlene Packer Klein

 Sharlene led us once again in an afternoon of Chinese-style painting. This time she demonstrated painting birds with color. Notice that an old oatmeal container makes a good brush holder.

Hummingbirds by Sharlene

The birds are done with a minimum of brush strokes.

We practiced the techniques but couldn't match the beauty of Sharlene's work.

A flower demo--the brush is loaded with 2 or 3 colors.
