My Gallery (319) Calligraphy Class / Shodo Class #18 "Red" Color - "Aka"

in Home Edders10 months ago

This time I wrote Hiragana characters. The first is "a" the second is "ka" and it reads "aka", which means "red" color. It's actually my favorite color.

These first two are my best.

Next time I'll write the word "red" in kanji. It's easy.


Calligraphy in Japanese is called Shodo. I'm using a brush and black ink on special calligraphy paper. The paper is very fine, soft, and the size is bigger than A4. I have white and also brown paper. I like the brown better. My writing looks better on the brown paper.

I'm learning two ways of writing. One is called Kaisho and the other one is Gyosho. I like Gyosho better because it is smooth, and more like art. Kaisho is the proper printed version of writing.

My sensei is always giving me to write simple words in Hiragana and Kanji. My sensei's writing is in orange, and the orange circle that my sensei draws over my writing means that I did well.

Shodo is awesome! I really enjoy it very much. You can try with me if you like.
