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.

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.
