The traditional Chinese painting,an important part of our country's cultural heritage,has a long history.It is very popular among people at home and abroad.What we need for painting are writingbrushes,Chinese ink,Xuan paper and pigments.Besides,an important feature of Chinese painting is that a painter should combine pictures,poems,calligraphy and seals perfectly. In fact,many painters are at the same time a calligrapher and a poet as well.In Chinese history,there are many famous traditional painters,including Qi Baishi and Xu Beihong.Qi Baishi was proficient in painting little shrimps while Xu Beihong was famous for his lively horses.Yours,Li Hua1.文章体裁:应用文——书信。
