    Background

    Chan Dissanayake is one of Australia’s leading watercolour artists. He is a Multi-award winning artist living in Canberra ACT. Chan is also a highly regarded tutor and a well-respected judge of local and regional art awards. Over the last 15 years his passion has turned to watercolour; a medium that thrives in spontaneous response and free expression.

    His mastery in watercolour is manifested by the vast varying subject matter that he tackles from rural landscapes, urban city scapes to coastal seascapes.  In 2017, Chan received the ultimate accolade for an Australian Watercolourist when he was elected to the elite Australian Watercolour Institute. Known for his innovative approach to teaching and generosity in sharing his knowledge, Chan has gained considerable reputation as an outstanding tutor.  He has contributed many articles to leading art publications including International Artist, Australian Artist and Artists Palette.

    His quick and direct approach to watercolour has earned him much success and respects both nationally and internationally.
