Waterfall Art of Making
As part of our continuous commitment to connecting artists and community, we designed ‘Art of Making’ as an ongoing creative program for patrons and families to experience to take part in our educational content that focuses on spirit, art, and culture. These intimate opportunities allow guests to learn the mastered techniques of several skilled artists and experience the deep healing that takes place when practicing art creation.
We believe that culture should be nurtured by caring, authenticity, unity, honor, presence, and wisdom. These elements of character formation are all supported to enhance the atmosphere and leadership at Waterfall.
David Chang’s Calligraphy Workshop allows guests to intimately learn the mastered techniques of Kintsugi and Calligraphy and experience the deep healing that takes place when practicing art creation.
Chang draws inspiration from his Korean roots and the ancient Chinese methodology of creating in the present time and space of a moment. Chang believes in this presence you can connect people to a greater love that exists.
Heidy Sumei Chuangs Watercolor Workshop allows guests to understand the properties of water and pigments to express beauty found in unexpected places. Chuang links identity and place and merges them using calligraphic lines of Asian paintings interfaced with the Western landscapes for a convergence of the figurative and abstract.
Chuang states “Through noticing the subtle colors and patterns of flowers emerging from buds, our growing experience of creativity will be broadened through our brushwork.
Celebration of Materials is a Children’s Workshop held annually.
Through thoughtfully designed classes, your children will celebrate various mediums such as watercolor on rice paper, stamp painting, acrylic paint, oil pastel, copper wire, paper collage, and cyanotype print. Children will learn about selected artists' life stories, the unique materials, and their unique art-making process. They will create their own artworks inspired by renowned artists and their artworks with curated materials. In addition, children will get a chance to exhibit their works at the Waterfall Mansion & Gallery
