He will be with us for his course in Watercolour (acrylic, gouache, oil, digital) fromSaturday 6 July to Saturday 13 July 2024.
Yong Chen is a painting professor from Boston, Massachusetts, USA, and an accomplished painter, author and illustrator. He has been passionate about art and teaching since his childhood
His paintings have been exhibited in art galleries and museums in both China and the United States.
Yong will teach and demonstrate mainly in watercolours, but he also excels in Chinese traditional painting, acrylic, gouache, oil and digital art, and is happy to teach in these mediums, too. He has a step-by-step, systematic approach, whilst bringing out creativity and making the process simpler and more relaxing.
One of his students said: “Yong is not only an amazing artist, but also a caring, devoted, excellent instructor and a kind person with a wonderful sense of humour. Yong provides a safe, happy, supportive environment where you can laugh and learn continuing on your personal journey in art.â€
