Chinese traditional artists use different styles of 'cun'(皴) to express their personality and achieve aesthetic authenticity. By mastering the brush in different ways, the lines and shading could appear very differently.
It is similar to the western development of styles of oil medium, e.g. pointillism and impasto paintings.
Thus change of medium is not the only option for an artist to achieve different visual elements.
