Abstract

Since the 21st century, the Chinese oil painting industry has been an engine of growth in the global art industry. Its development is both an economic and social phenomenon in market transformation. This research aims to promote the sustainable development of Cultural and Creative Parks by generating a highly skilled workforce in the  Chinese Oil Painting Industries. This research uses a literature review to explain the complex relationship between the Chinese Oil Painting Industries and Cultural and Creative Parks. The results of the research would include the role of the  Chinese Oil Painting Industries in the evolution of Cultural and Creative Parks and the role of generating a highly skilled workforce for the  Chinese Oil Painting Industries in promoting the sustainable development of Cultural and Creative Parks. The results are expected to lead towards recommending a format for generating a highly skilled workforce for Cultural and Creative Parks with the  Chinese Oil Painting Industries at its core. Furthermore, this research will suggest a theory for generating a highly skilled workforce in the Chinese Oil Painting Industry that promotes sustainable development of Cultural and Creative Parks. This article attempts to review and evaluate the achievements of China's cultural and creative industries in the past 20 years from three perspectives: the current situation of the Chinese oil painting industry, the approach to cultivating a highly skilled workforce, and the development path of Cultural and Creative Parks. It is expected to provide a reference for later scholars to conduct related research.
