If you're still interested in it, you can buy practice sheets with printed outlines. I'd go for the no-ink practice sheets, as you don't need to use up ink just to practice, and you can reuse them when they're dry.

I think I once heard you say that grinding the ink helps clear and prepare your mind for calligraphy. The same is true when you watch calligraphy - the process of grinding the ink gets you into the right mindset for what is to come. It is NEVER a waste of time to watch you grinding ink. Everything you do on your channel is peaceful, relaxing and a very good investment of the viewers time.

I’m glad that you started doing calligraphy videos again! It’s what got me started into chinese calligraphy!

@@fetsfer Items: Brushes: Chinese calligraphy brushes (known as "毛笔" in Chinese) come in various sizes and materials. Beginners usually start with medium-sized brushes made of goat, wolf, or mixed hair. These brushes provide a good balance of flexibility and control. Ink: You can start with bottled Chinese ink, which is traditionally made from soot and water. Alternatively, you can use ink sticks ("mo" in Chinese) along with an inkstone ("砚" in Chinese) to grind ink. This method allows you to control the consistency and intensity of the ink. Paper: Chinese calligraphy is often practiced on rice paper ("宣纸" or "米纸" in Chinese), which is thin and absorbent. Beginners can use practice paper or inexpensive rice paper to start with. Inkstone: If you choose to use ink sticks, you'll need an inkstone to grind the ink. Look for a smooth, flat inkstone made of stone, ceramic, or porcelain. Water Container: A container for holding water is necessary for diluting ink and cleaning brushes. You can use a small ceramic bowl or a dedicated water container. Felt Pad or Cloth: A felt pad or soft cloth is used to protect the desk or table surface while practicing calligraphy. It also helps control excess ink on the brush. Calligraphy Paperweights: These are optional but can be helpful for holding down the paper to keep it flat while writing. Practice Sheets or Books: Beginners can find practice sheets or books with basic stroke exercises and character examples to follow. Chinese version: 毛笔：中国书法毛笔（中文称为“笔”）有各种尺寸和材质。 初学者通常从山羊毛、狼毛或混合毛制成的中等大小的刷子开始。 这些刷子提供了灵活性和控制力的良好平衡。 墨水：您可以从瓶装中国墨水开始，这种墨水传统上是由烟灰和水制成的。 或者，您可以使用墨棒（中文“墨”）和砚台（中文“砚”）来研磨墨水。 此方法允许您控制墨水的稠度和强度。 纸张：中国书法通常在宣纸（中文为“宣纸”）上练习，宣纸薄且吸水性强。 初学者可以使用练习纸或便宜的宣纸开始。 砚台：如果您选择使用墨棒，则需要砚台来研磨墨水。 寻找由石头、陶瓷或瓷器制成的光滑、平坦的砚台。 水容器：需要一个盛水的容器来稀释墨水和清洁画笔。 您可以使用小陶瓷碗或专用的水容器。 毛毡垫或布：毛毡垫或软布用于在练习书法时保护桌子或桌面。 它还有助于控制画笔上多余的墨水。 书法镇纸：这些是可选的，但有助于在书写时压住纸张以使其保持平整。 练习表或书籍：初学者可以找到包含基本笔画练习和汉字示例的练习表或书籍。

An interesting observation i had while watching this video: Life is very fast paced nowadays. This video reminds us to slow down and calm down to enjoy life.

This is genuine ASMR. Unintentional and natural. The way she sounds out “ssshh” in the words.

Oh! This video reminded me of why I fell in love with Chinese Calligraphy! When I started learning Chinese I found it to be an extremely challenging language, but the peace and artistic joy that calligraphy brought with it was what took me through to keep going! I will go get some brushes tomorrow and start practicing again!

To all westerners watching this calligraphy video, if you ever pick up chinese calligraphy, make sure you write it from top to bottom, right to left. - The writer has beautiful letterforms but any practitioners writing should write in the direction I mentioned above to set up the 'stage'/framework properly, the energy flows that way, vertically, right to left. ~

I'd recommend getting a copy book and a practice sheet with the outlines of the characters printed out. With enough practice copying others' handwriting, your own handwriting will not only look better, but you'll find that it will come more naturally.

I just found this channel and I’m instantly hooked. Your voice is so soothing! I remember in high school there was a store my friends and I used to go to and it was owned by an older Chinese couple, and I’d go there to get my morning coffee. The older lady was SOOOO friendly and her voice was so soothing. I got same tingles everytime I went, because she’d always talk with me about school and stuff while making the coffee. It was honestly the highlight of my day :) love your vids, can’t wait to explore your other vids :) ♥️♥️ I hope you’re doing well and staying healthy

This is lovely I've always wanted to learn a new language/calligraphy style but it always seemed so difficult 😅 but hopefully this will teach me some stuff I'd need to know 😊

Fascinating! And extremly beautiful Calligraphy. I had no idea of certains special gestures in that process; for example, the subtle, opposition motions of the brush, occuring on the beginning of a straight vertical stroke, or, most surprisingly to me, at the end of a horizontal stroke. The way these gestures tint the paper through a contradictory motion, but not compromising the end result, is incredible. It would not have been so clear in this video, if you didn't have that nearly slow-motion, absolute control of the strokes.🙀I've seen many videos on these kind of Calligraphy, but this is the first time I've spotted this particular quality. Thanks for sharing such treasure, Master!
