The Chinese have a long tradition of art, and painting is one of the major art forms. It is still popular nowadays.
Figure paintings
Starting from the Han dynasty, artists made people as the main subject of their paintings. These paintings are called figure paintings.
Gu Kaizhi became famous for his figure paintings during the Jin dynasty. He used fine brushes to outline the people in black. Then he filled them with colour. This detailed, realistic style of painting was known as gongbi. The use of gongbi style resulted in more lifelike figure paintings.
Wu Daozi was known as the “Sage of Painting” for his unique painting style. He was very good at painting human figures and created special techniques for painting clothes that seemed to flow with the light wind.
Landscape paintings
Between the Tang and Song dynasties, landscape paintings became popular. Artists did ink wash painting with a brush and ink. Many landscape painters were scholar-artists. They liked to express themselves through painting. Instead of painting what they saw, they painted the landscapes from their imagination. They also added poems to their paintings.
Modern Chinese painters have inherited(继承) the long tradition of Chinese painting and brought this form of art to the world.
