Chinese brush painting is a versatile and expressive medium which offers Western artists a range of exciting and different techniques and a fresh approach to composition. In this book Jane Evans introduces the artist to the specialist materials required and then looks at techniques such as grinding the ink, creating flowing brush strokes, using colour and applying washes. A wide range of subjects is featured, including flowers and plants, birds, fish and other aquatic creatures, animals, people and landscapes, all illustrated with step-by-step examples and Jane's beautiful paintings.
