Beginning calligraphy

Ink, paper, tool: the base before the line.

Adjusted ink, compatible paper and a suitable brush or nib are enough to work on line, pressure, lettering and density variations.

Ink

Solid ink to adjust black on an inkstone, or liquid ink for direct writing.

Paper

Smoother paper keeps the edge cleaner; more absorbent paper lets ink spread.

The tool

A brush for flexible strokes; a nib for structured letters, lettering and sharper rhythm.

Composition no. 01 — Solid ink

Black is only
a consequence

Before the line, there is the stick.
Before black, there are water, stone and time.

Four objects to prepare ink, adjust its density and begin calligraphy, lettering or ink wash.

First practice

The ink stick, ink stone, brush and dish are used to prepare ink, adjust its density and observe how it reacts on paper. This composition gathers the essential tools for beginning calligraphy, lettering and solid-ink wash work.

Composition no. 02 — Ink & variations

Dwelling
in the black

After the encounter

Once the first black has appeared, the practice can open: more colours, more values, more room for the hand.

A composition for preparing several inks, comparing dilutions and extending calligraphy, lettering and ink wash.

Going further

This composition helps prepare several inks at once, compare densities and choose the brush according to the scale of the mark. It suits regular practice in calligraphy, lettering, ink drawing and wash.
