Caligraphy

Anyone does brush paintings? They look nice~. ^_^
Anyone like to do artwork that kind of resemble those kinds of arts from the past?

I've actually just started attempting those kind of paintings-I received a caligraphy kit for my birthday. However I left the supplies at home so I haven't been able to practice here at school....not that I would have much time between 5 art classes anyway.

I painted little koi fishies-it was really fun!

Wow cool moon!! ^__^ I really wanted to try but I wasn't able to buy a set and maybe wouldn't have time. If you ever have time scan them? ^_^

I'd loev to give it a go. My sister got a bruhs set, but it must've been pretty cheap. the brushes were all stiff like they were glued together 0o

I imagine you can achieve much the same with some watercolours or using any sort of ink. Sounds messy though -haha


i'm so jealous of any calligraphy. specially the chinese paintings and the medieval calligraphic work.

Same here DT! Especially medieval works!! They're so awesome including the weapons!

It's fun to walk into those sword medival stores! They have so many cool forges and antique-ish things!!

*oneday I will ahve a sword!* (i'm determined lol)


I love the books too - with all the drawings and letter work and gold inks. very pretty

Sure thing. ^_^

I remember when I was younger I always thought about getting one but mom wouldn't let me of course. Too dangerous. XD
Yet it was alright to join a korean sword fighting school. sweatdrop

I actually took a class on Calligraphy as I think it looks so elegant & classy...posh! lol I used a varity of wide nubs on a pen though & n ot a brush. (American class needless to say.) I wasn't very good at it though as I tend to be hurried and this is a very slow art form. I make my own cards & scrapbook pages so wanted to be able to use Calligraphy also.
