The Gong-bi style developed during the Han dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD), when great prosperity enabled advancements in the arts. Gong-bi required intense commitment to technique, and the resulting work was sought after by wealthy royal families. Together, we will study this ancient technique with its focus on delicacy, precision, detail, and patience.
