"Thank you. Great master, to teach you on on telephone books. This shows how abstract calligraphers think. He must have been an extraordinary man. It a reference to old school of calligraphy and respecting the paper, which back in a days was very expensive and hard to come by". posted by ryuurui.





I am unsure if you are serious or not. We used telephone pages to practice and practice certain strokes. This young chinese man taught calligraphy and also Mandarin. He was a lovely teacher and most encouraging. He lives here in UK in a cottage close to the sea in SUSSEX. I Unfortunately I could not afford many private lessons.

I did go to a one day class in japanese writing-- it was primarily hiragana a day is not long enough.

Yes I am sure that to achieve excellent art work would take many years of study and practice. One needs to be dedicated which is true of all great arts really.

I wish you well in all that you are doing. It will be well worth while.

where to find a teacher? I wonder.
