Artist of the Month - September 2025

May Chan

I’ve loved graffiti since childhood, but it wasn’t until after retirement that I met Master Zhen Hao at the CCM Burnaby Centre, that I discovered calligraphy and seal carving.

Soon after, my interest shifted to western painting and I’ve been studying watercolour on my own for years.  Mid-last year, Master Zipo offered me a workshop on traditional Chinese fan painting.  The works on display at this time are the result of my recent diligent study.

I welcome your feedback and guidance.
