Traditional Chinese painting is
divided into free sketch and realism. The two, obviously,
use different techniques. Free sketch uses bold and rough
lines to draw; outlines of landscapes and figures while the
realistic painting reflects the details of
objects.
Apart from traditional Chinese
painting, Western art styles, such as oil painting,
engraving and watercolors, have also developed in China. At
present, many Chinese painters combine traditional Chinese
painting techniques with Western styles, and thus, their
work is becoming more diversified.
