chinese traditional ink painting

This type of painting is referred to as Chinese Bamboo Painting. It might seem easy but it is actually challenging.Chinese Bamboo Painting is Eastern and not Western which means the painting styles are different.While i was painting the most challenging thing was how to hold the paint brushed.There are three types of brushes a fine bristle brush a medium brush and then there is the thick bristle brush. While holding the brush you have to make sure your hand is straight and you cannot rest your arm on the table like most people would do when painting Western pictures. This becomes hard and sometimes it's irritating but in the end it's worth it.
