I got up early this morning from my warm bed. I finished washing my face as fast as possible. Then, I grabbed my bag and set off with a smile more professional than a model. When I arrived at the gate of our school, I saw my three teachers and classmates were waiting on a bus. Though it was a bit far from Lukang to Tainan, we arrived at our destination, Tianan Living Art Center, very soon while fighting for fun.

     After arriving at Tainan Living Art Center, we took a group photo with Master Shih.

     Ms.Yu-hsuan introduced the work, Harvest, who knew every aquatic creature in the work!

     The five statues introduced by Ms. Yi-yun were called "Five Senses" altogether--hearing, vision, smell, touch, and taste. On the statue of hearing, there are patterns of ears. My sister was very smart and figured out the names of the rest four statues.

     The work introduced by Ms. Mei-chun was called "Concept". The rising eyes and traditional techniques were adopted to present the movement of the two mice snatching for ingots and the influence of 2008 financial crisis on the society. In a money-oriented environment, how should people use money and comprehend its meaning?

     The works explained by Mr. Fu-yuan was called Succeed. It was formed by little boys one by one higher and higher. A baby boy was sitting on the shoulder of an adult to symbolize the hope of success.

     The work introduced by Mr. Yi-da was named A Carp Jumping the Dragon Gate". A saw stood for limits. And the carp wanted to "breakthrough" it. The work also stood for the breakthrough in woodcarving industry from tradition to modernity.

     Mr.Tse-chi saw that the lady was interested in the statue, so he went there to explain her affection between the grandmother and the grandson.

     After explanation, all of us took a group photo with professional poses and smiles.

     After leading visitors watch the works of Master Shih, we ushered them to the DIY classroom. This photo is about our preparation before DIY activity.

     We are helping arrange Master Shih's works for the reference of visitors.

     We then begin to place raw materials. After that, DIY activity starts.

     We are teaching young children how to paint with colors.

     We help change water and check if any visitors need more colors.

     We help kids add glitter powder and use drier to dry the colors. Done!

     During winter holidays, many visit groups went to Chin-fu Shih Woodcarving Workshop. Today, we welcomed two groups today. There were many cute kids. Visitors were packed in like sardines. Thus, volunteers help guide them.

     There were many people. We were busy supplement colors to kids.

     We spent two hours teaching the kids how to do coloring. We were happy to see the happy smiles of kids taking photos of their works.
