Eastern Caligraphy

Recommended Posts

Does anyone here practice caligraphy, with brush, scroll, and ink? Arabic, Chinese, or Japanese?

 

How would a non-native speaker get immersed in this learning? Thanks as always.

By having an interest in some aspect of a  culture, learning the language ( to some extent ) and then taking calligraphy lessons.

Yes, right.

First, learn the language, and the correct writing of hieroglyphs (the types of points and lines, and their sequence when writing - if we talk about Chinese).

Then start caligraphy.

Definitely agree to know what you're writing before eventually develop your expressiveness with the brush and ink.

A whole bunch of Chinese words easy to learn the evolution of pictographs. Includes stroke orders, pronunciation audio and pinyin.
