What is the difference between Chinese painting, printmaking, sketching and drawing?

One, the material, Chinese painting with rice paper (restrictive, with the traditional specific paper), printmaking, sketching, sketching on the paper requirements are not so high (special)

Two, the tools, Chinese painting with brushes, ink, on rice paper to complete the prints with the carving knife out of the shape in the prints, sketching sketching is no specific restrictions, simply sketching sketching is the use of a color of the lines or surfaces can be expressed in the picture! (Paper is not limited, brush, ballpoint pen, pencil, crayon ..... etc. can be premised on the use of a color (monochrome))

three, they can be expressed through the point, line, surface picture, but the difference is: the picture effect, the Chinese painting biased towards the mood of the mountains, rivers and water figures, and printmaking is due to the reasons of the times biased towards narrative, sketching sketching is used for the basic skills of painting practice, creation of drafts and so on

four, the completion of the time of the national paintings, printmaking, sketch is almost unlimited. limited time a flower may be completed a week, a year, two years .... vary, two years of sketching time 5 minutes 20 minutes is the record of the picture (will not be very detailed carving)

fifth, drawing on the object of in-depth carving, texture and other expressions, sketching is the concept of a draft just like the writing of an essay first draft, in the painting of creative work need to be drawn first sketches
