i start the course number two tonight learning a looser-form caligraphy, which need adding "the flow" (chinese called 'qi') to the basic skill learnt in course one

"rhythm, accent, shape & qi" like dancing

here is my first practice, what do you think

I have no idea what it all means, but it is very pretty. Firefly · 2007-03-06: 13:40

I like the fist shot, really powerful and beautiful ????? · 2007-03-06: 14:10

I love it. I could never do that, I still remember calligraphy classes, the teacher didn't like me very much. haha. I can barely read my own writing. iustinium · 2007-03-06: 14:31

It looks so beautiful. I am impressed, both with the calligraphy and the composition of the pictures magpy · 2007-03-06: 15:18

I'm taking Chinese Brush Painting and know how hard it is to learn the strokes. These look great to me— my teacher usually corrects our strokes. photopoet · 2007-03-06: 19:49

photopoet, totally agree, it is not easy to learn the strokes! the effect varies using different brush / ink / paper.... to learn the "flow " is even difficult ...let's keep goign together! violapys · 2007-03-06: 22:49
