18. First, there is the Chinese brush. Though similar to the Brush used for watercolour painting in the West, it has a finer tip suitable for dealing with a wide range of subjects and for producing the variations in line required by different styles. Since the materials used for calligraphy and painting are essentially the same, developments in calligraphic styles and techniques can also be used in painting. bĭ 笔

19. Second, there is the ink. Ink has been used in calligraphy and painting for over two thousand years. When the ink cake is ground on the painter's stone slab with fresh water, ink of various consistencies can be prepared depending on the amount of water used. Thick ink is very deep and glossy when applied to paper or silk. Thin ink appears lively and translucent. mò 墨 yàn 砚

20. Third, there is paper or silk. Chinese painting may be done either on Chinese paper or silk. The original paper(around 100 AD.)was made from many different materials including pulp, old fishing nets and bark. Modern paper is often machine made. Different Paper produce different results; some are rough and absorb ink quickly like a sponge, others have a smooth surface which resists ink. Chinese paper is usually known as rice paper in English. zhĭ 纸
