If you have enough time and money, I suggest you go to the Central Academy of Fine Arts. The key is that you can meet many painters in Beijing, where there are several painter villages and many activities. I have friends studying in Central America, so I often have to deal with some activities in the circle. Everything is won by the circle, and the painter circle is no exception. Otherwise, it will be difficult for you to become famous in the future.
If it's just a hobby, go nearby. If you are in the south, go to Gome in Hangzhou and Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts in the north, all of which are in the forefront of the country. It depends on personal circumstances. I also want to earn money and like Chinese painting, but now I have no money or time.
