Overview

Host Introduction Hello everyone, I am Woyun Xuanzhu, your host from Beijing. Since childhood, I have been immersed in Beijing's traditional culture, loving poetry, calligraphy, and traditional Chinese painting. Among these, I am particularly fond of traditional Chinese painting, especially bird-and-flower painting. I have had the privilege of receiving personal guidance from masters such as Xu Zhan, Liu Cunhui, and Guo Shifu. For decades, I have diligently practiced calligraphy and painting, drawing inspiration from nature and my inner self. My works are widely acclaimed in the freehand bird-and-flower painting field and have been collected by buyers from many countries, including the United States, Britain, France, Germany, and Russia. Currently, I have my own studio, Woyun Xuan, located outside the Donghua Gate of the Forbidden City in Beijing, dedicated to promoting cultural exchange and heritage between China and other countries. Experience Introduction There's an old Beijing folk rhyme that goes, "A fan has wind, held in hand; if someone asks to borrow it, wait until winter's stand." In the scorching summer, painting a small scene or writing a few words on a fan, and then using it to fan a cool breeze, instantly dispels worries. The ink and brushwork dilute some of life's trivialities, and the painting adds a certain strength. It can be called a cool friend, and even more so, a good friend. During your leisure time, come to my studio, and I will share with you the traditional Beijing art of painting fan surfaces. Then, you will personally paint a fan. With a cup of fragrant tea, calm and composed, time will linger here. Whether slow or fast, maintaining a good mindset is key. Venue Introduction The venue is located outside the Donghua Gate of the Forbidden City, with convenient transportation. The studio is adorned with antique furniture, creating a rich atmosphere for calligraphy and painting. Experience Process Starts at 14:00 in the afternoon (other times can be negotiated); I will first introduce the origin of the traditional art of painting fan surfaces and some calligraphy and painting works; Then I will demonstrate how to paint on a fan; Next, you can complete a fan surface yourself under guidance.
