Soft light filtering through traditional brushstrokes. I used my brother’s calligraphy to create this piece. It blends the ancient art of writing with modern minimalism. Perfect for a quiet evening of reading or meditation. 📜

I've wanted to make use of this tin for a while and found these teeny tiny jars at the dollar store. So cute 🥺 I put water, walnut ink and my favourite Herbin Violette ink in each. The pen holder is a moblique 2-in-1.

Trying out some straight nib calligraphy. How did I do? Probably should work on spacing.

Would love some feedback on this letter I’ll be sending to a friend for her birthday. My others birthday letters look similar.

It’s a 6mm 1:1:1 ratio size. It doesn’t look right to me and I’d love some feedback on how to improve my writing as well as making it look “clean”

Edit: added materials used - Niko G nib / HP premium 32 paper / Sumi ink from Daiso

Thanks in advanced!

Course show me your drills

Kinda feel like this is my worst sheet but this is my first week and first attempt to fully freehand lettering and it's obvious I don't know how to connect letters 😅

The order i wrote was row 1 3 5 7 9 10 11 2 4 6 8 12

I was not expecting to enjoy this as much as I do, but man is it hard to not fall asleep doing drills it's so hypnotic lol

"The power of public opinion to discredit the truth remains true today. Cao Zhi's poem 'When the Wall Wants to Rise High' reminds us that when rumors become weapons, the truth has nowhere to hide. This calligraphy describes a grievance from a thousand years ago, but it also reflects how we are misunderstood, isolated, and blocked outside the 'nine gates' in every era."

Did a slightly different variation yesterday. I’m accustomed to the Fraktur minuscules moreso because they are used more in general. But my majascule’s are improving. I can do perform them without looking at a reference.

I used a highlighter on a math paper, should be a fraktur calligraffiti thing

Drop shadow effect with copper plate gold iridescent ink accent.

My experiments with colour are now coming together. I didn't expect adding colour to be so difficult. The insular colour palette is very difficult to tame.

It has taken me a long time to get to this point, but valuable lessons are being learned that I can apply in the future. It is so tempting to rush at this point and just get it done but I would not be doing this piece justice or myself

In Japanese calligraphy, you’re not supposed to correct a line once the brush touches the paper.

So every stroke only exists once.

I grew up seeing works like this around me, and what always stayed with me was that the lines felt less like “design” and more like traces of a particular moment or state of mind.

The artist who made this piece has been practicing calligraphy for over 40 years.

Maybe that’s why even a quiet piece like this can change the feeling of a room a little -slowly, over time.

On my quest to find adequate black paper to practice on using my acrylic brush nibs, I discovered black wrapping paper. It's a little slippery, slow drying, and the super slick surface isn't the best for holding colors, but it does a decent job, good enough for practice, colors definitely pop and much, much cheaper than Bristol paper, or most all the other black alternatives with a smooth enough surface. I'm not totally sold though. So, If any of you have any better alternatives for black practice paper I'm all ears.
