Dafen Oil Painting Village 大芬油画村
Browse Dafen with a question in mind: what changes between a finished painting and the work needed to make it? Look at the range of displayed canvases and, where welcome, observe a painter working. Choose a small purchase only after you know its size, packaging and whether it is an original or a reproduction. This is a hands-and-materials counterpoint to Shenzhen’s electronics reputation. A painting session can be worthwhile, but arrange it with the studio rather than expect every shop to teach.
