On
February 17, 2007 the internationally renown artist, Zhiwei Tu, came to
the Mainstreet Art Centre to give a three hour demonstration of portrait
painting. He worked from a live model in 25 minute sessions, with
short breaks during which he answered questions from the audience.
The demonstration was attended by roughly 50 artists. A large number of his books were sold, which Mr. Tu graciously signed
for the purchasers. The finished portrait was sold at the end of
the demonstration by a drawing held between several interested attendees.
