In China goldfish are highly regarded as a symbol of good fortune, wealth, and abundance. In Japan they represent happiness, luck, and prosperity. Award-winning master of painting, Frank Liao will share his vision of these delightful creatures as he demonstrates how to paint goldfish in the colorful Lingnan style of Southern China.
