Week Five: Qinn Dynasty and the Chinese Currency

Week Six: Han Dynasty and the Invention of Paper

Our hairy paper took the ink with no real problems, although I'm certain it could not have been painted on, the paper would have fallen to bits

Week Seven: Han Dynasty and a Picture Study (Five Han Nobles)

Our final replication of the original tomb painting.  Not bad T11, L10 and C10!

Week Eight: Tang Dynasty and the invention of Printing

And then used it to print a lovely picture.  We were really pleased with the outcome.

Week Nine: The Song Dynasty and Silk Screen Printing
