                  That's beautiful Mujo! Thanks for sharing.

                  And count me in for calligraphy lessons... If and when they happen. ????

                          The lines are so crisp, and yet still flow! I'll echo the same sentiment - it's beautiful.

                          Ditto for any future lessons... I attempted to write the characters for Ango to make a count-down board, and it was a very humbling experience.

                                  Very beautiful, Mujo! I did an art practice seminar at ZMM where they treated sumi-e painting as body practice, even painting blindfolded
