I like these two different painting style, and you?  

I appreciate them both too, youless. They are each beautiful in their own way.

Do you like to draw and paint?

Great discussion, youless. Painting is one of my interests as well. I love both styles of painting very much. Chinese painting is a lot more focussed on the negative space in a painting and I often feel that more can be expressed in the negative space than with actual brush strokes. IMO it takes more of a natural talent to be able to achieve such results, whereas western techniques could be eventually learned by anyone with a desire to learn them.

Enjoy making your art!

Good afternoon, youless. Speaking of paintings, I am an amateur rather than an expert. But I love to appreciate paintings. I used to learn to draw and imitate as a kid. My interest in painting was somewhat strong, but as nobody trained me. I gave it up. It is a pity on my side. It is good to know that you know about painting. In fact, it is not only painting, but also you know many other lines of business. I cannot help thinking that youless is a Jack-of-all-trades. That is really cool. I would also like to be one with broad interest like youless. Keep it up and enjoy your day, youless.

I am into Van Gogh. He used bright vivid color. I love that. I like it when the color is so intense it jumps off the canvas and really touches me. Forgive me but I have only seen a few Japanese paintings, I haven't seen an Chinese.

I agree with you that the two styles are completely different. Perhaps you can use the Chinese influence in your paintings using the western style. That would be a nice combination.
