Develop an appreciation for the origin, history and artistic significance of this ancient art by examining the works of master calligraphers. The instructor leads demonstrations using a variety of styles and equipment. Through assignments you focus on body and hand postures, character strokes, and proportion. You then practice producing words and poems using these traditional techniques, and explore their application in your own contemporary art.
