ink and watercolor

Freda Lee-McCann studied with the renowned Master of Chinese Art, C.C. Wang, for over twenty years. Lee-McCann’s works range from the traditional method to her latest explorations fusing the traditional techniques with vivid colorwashes. Traditional Chinese landscape paintings are primarily built on brush strokes using black ink followed with light colorwashes on rice paper. By introducing color brush marks instead of ink, there is a stronger emotional expression, but the Chinese painting tradition remains. Lee-McCann’s foresight into the fusion of East and West is a remarkable compliment to her talent.
