Instead, these artists used water-based paints and painted on paper and silk. Paint spreads rapidly on those surfaces, so the brush strokes(笔触) had to be done very quickly and lightly. 　　To the Chinese, paintings of nature were the highest form of art. The artists loved to paint scenes with natural beauty. Indeed, the Chinese word for “landscape” means “mountain-water”. The Chinese considered mountains as special places where spirits(神仙) lived. Paintings with mountain landscapes might reach as high as seven feet. Small round or square paintings were sometimes made to be placed in albums(相册). Artists also loved to make panoramic rolls(全景卷)—huge paintings that were kept rolled up in boxes. Many of them are kept carefully and some can be seen in some museums now. You would unroll the painting slowly, as if following the artist in a journey across the landscape or scene. Hui Zong opened many painting schools and promoted(推广) art and artists. The palace even had an artist on call(随时待命的) all night long just in case the emperor wanted something painted in the middle of the night. 1.
