Introduction to the Hoi An Silk Painting Private Workshop
Silk Painting – The Traditional Art of Hoi An
Hoi An is famous not only for its ancient houses and lantern-lit streets but also for preserving many traditional art forms — one of the most delicate being Vietnamese silk painting.
Joining the Hoi An Silk Painting Private Workshop, you’ll discover how local artists turn soft, shimmering silk into mesmerizing works of art. Guided by experienced Hoi An artists, you’ll learn the techniques behind this graceful medium — from sketching and layering to the subtle play of color that defines the soul of silk art.
