When we build a new house, we often buy something beautiful to decorate it. The painting is always the first thing we want to buy. People from all over the world mostly like western paintings. But as a Chinese, I think Chinese paintings are the best.
Chinese paintings are one of the oldest kinds of paintings in the world. Chinese artists first started painting over two thousand years ago, and painters in China are still using many of the same ways today.
Chinese painters usually paint natural scenes(自然景观), animals or people. We can only see buildings in Chinese paintings when they make up a small part of a natural scene.
There are two kinds of traditional Chinese paintings. The first one is the gongbi style. People need a lot of time to make this style of painting, because they paint everything in great detail(细节). This style often uses a lot of colour. Long ago, most painters in China used the gongbi style.
The second style of Chinese painting is the ink-wash painting(水墨画), Painters usually finish ink-wash paintings very quickly and they may not always have much colour. Ink-wash paintings have fewer details, because the painter is trying to show something with just a few brushstrokes(笔画). Most ink-wash artists do not work as painters. They paint as a hobby. But a good ink-wash artist can still become famous.
