Led by the celebrated Master Wang Ting—a direct disciple of the National Treasure, Master Huang Yunpeng—this is your rare access to a lineage of artistry usually hidden behind museum glass.

Why this matters:
This is not merely a workshop; it is a dialogue with identity.
Master Wang, with over 35 years of mastery and works collected by national museums, will guide you through the alchemy of cobalt. You will learn to wield the brush not just to paint, but to channel Qi yi zai dao ('vessels embody the Way')—where the artifact transcends materiality to become a spiritual vessel.

Whether you are a complete novice or a seasoned practitioner, Master Wang’s instruction is bespoke. She meets you where you are, guiding your hand to find the rhythm, the flow, and the infinite possibilities of the Blue.

青花，豈止是藍。我們一向堅持正統，拒絕坊間化學藍的偽裝。 由 CCTV 專訪藝術家 Channing Lee 親授，傳承景德鎮國家一級畫師的非遺承傳。她將元代的狂放與明代的優雅，煉成獨有的藝術語言。

在 Message In A Dish，你觸碰的是礦物青花 (Mineral Cobalt)，修習的是泥、水與火的煉淨。掌握香港稀有的「分水」與「勾線」技巧。筆鋒流轉間，那一抹歷經七百年依然動人的藍——只留給最靜的心。

THE STUDIO (青花·恆常)
🖌️深度 (Depth): 鑑賞元明清，習正宗語言。
🖌️材料 (Material): 堅持使用正宗青花礦料。
🖌️修習 (Cultivation): 風格需時。由臨摹起步，向心筆合一之路修行。
🖌️特享 (Privilege): 優先報名「景德鎮大師班」。
🖌️(含學費、工具、2件素坯及燒窰費 / Includes tuition, tools, 2 bisque pieces, firing)

( Channing 作品獲米芝蓮三星名廚 Hélène Darroze、Alain Ducasse 及國際藏家收藏，並獲 8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA 委約創作。作品曾展於香港、台灣及英國)

Commercial dye is flat. Mineral Cobalt is alive.

While others offer a mere painting experience, we offer The Source.
At Message In A Dish, we reject the flatness of chemical substitutes. Here, you handle the medium that defined history.

Guided by Channing Lee (Apprentice to Jingdezhen Masters), this is not just a class; it is Alchemy. Master the elusive "Water Split" and "Line Drawing". Transform raw minerals into eternal art. Find the stillness of heart in the "Blue Flow."

(Collections: Hélène Darroze, Alain Ducasse. Commissions: 8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA and international collectors. Exhibitions in HK, Taiwan, and the UK.)

【鹽內藏的信息 The Message of Salt】

帶學生來鹽田梓退修，默想的不只是大自然，而是生命的本相。
基督的印記 (The Mark of Christ) 早已寫在萬物的創造中；微小如晶鹽，都藏著十架。

你看不見它，直到你願意被煉淨。

Hidden within the cubic structure of every grain of salt, there lies a cross.

We come here not to look at the scenery, but to look into the substance.
To be the "Salt of the Earth" is to have the Cross as your structural core.

Without the Cross, we lose our savor.

"THANK YOU for growing with us!"

After 10 years in business, I've learned that burnout isn't a badge of honour and doing everything yourself isn't strength—it's stubbornness.

Real growth looks like:
✓ Clarity over chaos
✓ Systems over scrambling
✓ Trust over control
✓ Permission to pivot

These are the shifts I'm taking into 2026. Calmer, more intentional, and way more sustainable.

💬 What would you add to this list?

With gratitude,
Channing
Founder & Artist

🎂 It's our Biz Birthday 🎂

Message In A Dish turned 10 this year!!! 🎉

Ten years of food & ceramic art, wild creativity, community love, social innovation, meditation wellness, theological exploration, highs, lows, and SO much growth. Wouldn't change a thing!

From the bottom of our paint-covered hearts, THANK YOU for showing up, supporting us, and believing in the magic of what happens when art, food, and wellness collide.

What's next for Year 11? Who knows... but we're ready for whatever comes next ❤️

Everyone sees metal.
I see transformation: It's porcelain fired with iron oxide, cobalt, and multiple glazes.

Clay to stone. Soft to strong. Earth to flight.

The braids carry memory.
The wings carry possibility.
The material carries both.

This is why I work in fire—not to preserve the past, but to forge what hasn't been imagined yet.
