Sai Kung Art and About - Vincent Lee Kwun-leung's Chinese ink paintingsVincentKwunLeungLee
I am going to be one of the participating artists in this art fair between 19 and 20 March 2016, in which I am going to have a booth at Sai Kung Promenade Park and have two pieces of Chinese-ink paintings being selected for the "Gallery Walk" session. I have to do creative demonstrations and prepare for a seminar to present my creative experiences.
This slideshare covers my fruits of Chinese-ink explorations in various units - such as my two secondary schools, Oil Street, HERMES and Cheung Chau Pier. Most of the works are "project-based", but you can still see how creative I am in terms of coping with the ever-changing aesthetic demands.

China, Korea, Japan
Calligraphy, Architecture, Origami, Paintings, Poems
Ceramics, metalworking, jewelry, and artefacts in wood, glass and bone, as well as fabric-making and sculptures, were all important to these areas. Hindu and Buddhist art has also had an impact on artistic culture, as seen in the crafting and decoration of pottery and tiles.
Understanding Human Expression: Art is a fundamental form of human expression, reflecting cultural, social, political, and religious values across time and geography. By studying art history, we gain insights into the ways different societies have communicated their ideas and emotions through visual media.
Preserving Cultural Heritage: Artworks are tangible embodiments of cultural heritage. Studying art history helps in preserving and interpreting these artworks, ensuring that they are not lost to time and that future generations can appreciate and learn from them.
Contextualizing Historical Events: Art often reflects the historical context in which it was created. By studying art history, we can gain a deeper understanding of historical events, movements, and ideologies, as well as the lives of people who lived during those times.
Appreciating Diversity: Art history encompasses a vast array of styles, techniques, and traditions from around the world. By studying diverse artworks, students gain an appreciation for different cultures, perspectives, and artistic innovations, fostering tolerance and empathy.
Enhancing Critical Thinking: Analyzing artworks involves critical thinking skills such as observation, interpretation, and evaluation. Studying art history encourages students to think critically about visual imagery, symbolism, and artistic techniques, thereby enhancing their analytical abilities.
Inspiring Creativity: Exposure to a wide range of artistic styles and movements can inspire creativity and innovation. Studying art history provides students with a rich visual vocabulary and historical precedents that can inform their own artistic practice and creative endeavors.
Career Opportunities: Knowledge of art history opens up various career opportunities in fields such as museums, galleries, education, publishing, conservation, and cultural heritage management. Many professions value the research, communication, and analytical skills developed through the study of art history.
In summary, studying art history is essential for understanding human culture, preserving heritage, contextualizing history, appreciating diversity, enhancing critical thinking, inspiring creativity, and pursuing various career paths related to the arts and humanities.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

8. Analysis
(i) Gone With The Water 浪涛尽千古风流人物
Title in Mandarin means “no matter how successful the past
heroic figures may be, they are still subjected to fade through
time”
Artwork is divided into 3 sections:
o Bottom – dark/ intense marks
o Center – fill of facial images
o Top – stretch of landscape linked by 3 parts
Most figures not well defined - fade into the lines and
marks, depicting a river flowing.
o great or not, fade by the current of the river of time
9. Analysis
(i) Gone With The Water 浪涛尽千古风流人物
Top section is made up of 3 parts
o ten circular structures
o connected by bold marks
o a stretch of landscape
Question: Is this Chng’s way of depicting heroes
forming a landscape of history for the current
viewer to learn from?
10. Analysis

Main focus is the inverted banner - meaning of texts (by Zhen
Banchiao, 1751):

difficult to transcend from clarity to vagueness. Let lose a little, take a step
back, be at ease in present moment, not seeking future good returns”
13. Analysis
