Om författaren
I moved from Tokyo, Japan to Denmark in 1986, and I have taught and introduced Calligraphy since 1987.
I learned Calligraphy from my mother since I was 6 years old. She taught Calligraphy at Silver University and schools, etc.
I have decided to write a book on Calligraphy because there are many in Scandinavia and internationally interested in trying to hold Japanese/Chinese brush with black ink and draw a line with black and white nuance. It is nice to have this book besides teaching in Calligraphy.
I hope the book will be useful to the reader. I’m also glad that I can present Shodo, Calligraphy here.
