The tools and materials used to create ink and wash painting, i.e. brushes, rice paper, and ink, are characteristic of
48、Chinese culture and closely related to the features of the paintings. For example, the mixing of water and ink creates different shades of dryness, wetness, thickness and thinness. The integration and infiltration of water, ink, and rice paper enables such paintings to convey rich images, and hence
