Chinese Painting

Chinese painting is one of the oldest artistic traditions in the world and has been developed continuously over six thousands years. It is done with a brush dipped in black or colored ink and painted on paper or silk. The finished work can be mounted on scrolls, such as hanging scrolls or handscrolls [1]. The two main techniques in Chinese painting are: Gong-bi meaning "meticulous", uses highly detailed brushstrokes that delimits details very precisely; Ink and wash painting, in Chinese Shui-mo also loosely termed watercolour or brush painting, and also known as "literati painting" [1].
