What techniques are commonly used in Japanese painting?

Japanese painting commonly uses techniques such as sumi-e (ink wash painting), ukiyo-e (woodblock printing), and nihonga (traditional Japanese painting using natural pigments). These techniques emphasize simplicity, asymmetry, and the use of negative space to create a sense of harmony and balance in the artwork.

How has Japanese painting influenced Western art?

Japanese painting has had a significant impact on Western art, particularly in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The use of flat, decorative patterns and asymmetrical compositions in Japanese art inspired Western artists such as Vincent van Gogh and Claude Monet. Additionally, the Japanese aesthetic of simplicity and minimalism influenced the development of modernist art movements like Art Nouveau and Art Deco.
