The Sri Lanka China Trade and Investment Council (SLCTIC) in collaboration with the Department of Visual & Performing Arts has invited one of China’s famous masters in water colour painting to Sri Lanka.
Master Wang Rong Mao will be in Sri Lanka with 20 collectible paintings commissioned especially for Sri Lanka. His valuable paintings have been exhibited throughout China, Malaysia, Indonesia and Hong Kong and for the first time in Sri Lanka.
