Chinese-based Art Sites? (and an art-related translation request)

I'm a novice artist and I was wondering if there was any Mandarin-based art/design sites and forums related to art so that I could simultaneously practice art with Chinese.

 

On top of that, I've been having a hard time finding translation for some art terms (such as composition, tonal value, linework, portfolio, structure, gesture) what might the translations of these terms be (or where might I look to find them)?

Sorry for the horrible formatting. This is just copy and pasted from Apple's built-in dictionary. It makes it quite clear what the connotations of each Chinese word are. Where have you looked for your definitions of these words, previously? Have you checked Pleco?

 

I tried searching baidu for some word lists (词汇). I tried 艺术专业,美术专业,and 绘画专业 to find some word lists. While they don't have most of the words you list, they have a lot of words for discussing art.

 

Make sure to hit the 继续阅读 to see the full document and not just the first few pages.
