Description
Explains how the brush can be used to rejuvenate the mind and body and release creativity, demonstrates how to recognize, visualize, and write Japanesse characters, and discusses the aesthetics of Japanese calligraphy.
Shodo: The 'Way of the Brush' is not just an art of painting Oriental calligraphy on paper. Shodo is the art of refining your chapter, and integrating mind and body through the brush. It is also considered to be one of the few arts which achieves a perfect fusion of language, emotion, and vision. Yet because of the language barrier, it has long been a mystery to the Western mind. This book offers an insider's view of the art, based on the authors's years of study Ki energy in the Japanese arts. - from Amzon
