The Ash-Rubbing Technique — A 500-Year-Old Craft

The name “ash-rubbing” comes from the craft‘s unique method. The artist first sketches the design with a charcoal stick made from willow branches. Then the artist presses rice paper over the sketch to transfer the outline. One sketch can yield several copies. After that, each copy receives individual hand-painting through over twenty careful steps. These steps include line drawing, face painting, color application, gold outlining, and varnishing. The whole process demands patience and precision.

This scroll painting chinese uses traditional xuan paper and silk brocade. These materials have served Chinese painting for centuries. They give the piece an elegant look, suitable for framing or scroll mounting. At 180cm by 70cm, this generously sized Chinese scroll painting commands attention.
