The one I spent most time on was the Yang style short form, but a few months ago I started learning the Yang long form from a Singaporean Chinese master who lives here in Spain. I do enjoy it very much. I have watched Wu style which from memory I think was quite fast and involved a lot of quite low movements. For a while I was learning the sword form which was fun but complex especially keeping out of the way of other people in the class!
Going back to Chinese brush painting. If you want to spend some hours watching Chinese painting go to Youtube and look for blueheronarts's videos, there are dozens of videos for you to watch, painting many traditional Chinese themes. Would be interested to see one of your paintings. I thought the Olympic's opening ceremony was so good with its exposition of Chinese art and calligraphy. I presume you watched it. If you decide you want more info I can recommend some excellent books which I am sure you would enjoy. Finally another painting - the space in front of the monk is to allow the Chii to move.
