Game Design project "Have fun" - Considering art-style

When I first thought of an art-style incorporating chinese silk painting I can't deny my mind kept bouncing back to Okami. I had been so infatuated with that game that I'm worried my own game idea would end up looking like an ode to it. So then I thought I'd actually look at chinese silk painting and see the comparisons for myself.

There are some notable similarities such as the watery brush strokes however, chinese silk pinting appears to stick to monotone colour palettes whilst simply introducing a single bold colour to create contrast within the composition. From here I'm sure I could incorporate some of these techniques and ideas into my own work.
