In the seventeenth century print-painting manuals began to be designed to help train artists. These showed, step by step, how to paint in the style of particular artists. They illustrated a variety of subjects, from small rocks to mountains or tree branches to forests. The different brush strokes were named and explained.

Landscape painting is traditionally at the top of the hierarchy of Chinese painting styles. It is very popular and is associated with refined scholarly taste. The Chinese term for “landscape” is made up of two characters meaning “mountains and water.” It is linked with the philosophy of
Daoism
, which emphasizes harmony with the natural world.

Idealized landscapes
Chinese artists do not usually paint real places but imaginary, idealized landscapes. The Chinese phrase woyou expresses this idea of “wandering while lying down.” In China, mountains are associated with religion because they reach up towards the heavens. People therefore believe that looking at paintings of mountains is good for the soul.
Chinese painting in general is seen as an extension of calligraphy and uses the same brushstrokes. The colors are restrained and subtle and the paintings are usually created in ink on paper, with a small amount of watercolor. They are not framed or glazed but mounted on silk in different formats such as hanging scrolls, handscrolls, album leaves and fan paintings.

Step five:
Use a small paintbrush and white acrylic paint to add highlights into your mountain and background.
Step six:
I really wanted to make my mountain pop out more, so I added in some neon pink (this is optional).
Take a Plastic Pink Irojiten Colored Pencil from the Fluorescent Set and add in some pink highlights to the mountain. You can also add pink shadows to your quote to make it pop more.
Once you’re finished, peel off the tape and hang up your art!
Thanks for hanging out with me today!
