About The Tutor: Angela Reich
I love Chinese Brush Painting! I paint in both the freehand and meticulous styles, and also practice Chinese calligraphy. The freehand style is simple and spontaneous, using only a few brush strokes to evoke the subject, or the season. The meticulous court style is elegant and realistic, using subtle washes. I have studied Chinese Brush Painting (CBP) for over 30 years, learning from many Chinese artists in the UK and in China, visiting China several times to sketch the landscape and flowers I love sharing my enthusiasm for this unique art form. I teach individuals and groups at my home studio in Surrey and also give workshops to various CBP groups. I am Chair of the Chinese Brush Painting Society, the UK national network for this fascinating art. You can see more of my paintings and trips to China on my website: www.stoneandwaterstudio.co.uk
