What is Shodo?
Shodo (Japanese Calligraphy) has been practiced and appreciated since the 5th century.
It is originally from China, but Japanese calligraphers have developed unique styles and techniques, which made Japanese calligraphy so profound.
We use Fude (blush), Sumi ink, and paper. The power you press the blush onto the paper makes the relaxing sound.
It is not only a form of art but a form of meditation.
Empty your mind through Shodo.
Everyone is welcomed in the world of Shodo.
