"Within the East Asian artistic tradition, China has been the acknowledged teacher and Japan the devoted student. Nevertheless, several Japanese arts developed their own style, which can be differentiated from various Chinese arts. The monumental, symmetrically balanced, rational approach of Chinese art forms became miniaturized, irregular, and subtly suggestive in Japanese hands."
The Chinese artist excels in replication and repetition of subject matter and style. The Japanese artist is more likely to create one of a kind pieces and is more subtly lyrical.
