  Ciao Junko è interessante conoscere la genesi dei kanji. Da quasi un anno ho iniziato a studiare il giapponese per soddisfare la mia curiosità verso la scrittura del tuo paese. Non è stato facile l'approccio ma poco per volta imparo cose nuove compreso qualche kanji! Grazie

  This is just what I was looking for. Perfect !! and I love the mental aspect which is why I’m taking the whole process real slow - getting a feel for the tools and learning a little about the thinking behind the painting or writing philosophy as I go. Today I unboxed my tools and photographed everything as it was an unused beautiful set. Started with discovering a little about the brush types I have - then got stuck with how to grind the ink. From not having a clue to knowing exactly what do do in one simple and beautiful video . I can’t thank you enough. Found this video at midnight U.K. Tomorrow I’m going to grind ink with much appreciation 😊

  This may seem unusual, but I like to write out letters and words in the grinding process almost as a way to pray to whatever higher power could grant me what I need to accomplish my creative goals. It is probably unnecessary and just a superstitious ritual, but I do think it at least helps me with getting focused on my goals and start relaxing properly.

  Thank you for watching and for your comment. I have been learning Japanese calligraphy and believe in the power of writing and words. I found it is a great idea to write some words when grinding an ink stick ☺️

  Does the ink from the ink-stick washable if it gets on you hands and fingers?

  Yes it’s washable. I get ink on my fingers all the time! but it stains on fabric and paper.

  I prefer to buy ink sticks than liquid ones. I have found that a small, cheap ink stick of 30g is more ink than a bottle of 150-180ml cheap ink and the ink stick is a bit cheaper than the bottle.

  If the inkstone becomes visible behind the ink stick then the ink is nearly ready. This was the most useful piece of advice for me as a beginner. You showing on rice paper how the ink was when ready, also helped a lot. I appreciate your words, as they have helped me to relax before I paint.

  Hi Junko, I wanted to ask the difference that the actual inkstone has on the ink. I really love the look of duang inkstones but I dont want to purchase one if its not necessary. 🙏 thank you!!!

• 
  @JunkoAzukawa Жыл бұрын

  Thank you for watching the video 😊 Usually ink stone craftsmen choose quality stones (fine and smooth) to carve the decorations around the stone so beautifully decorated ink stones would likely make finer ink but general ink stones are absolutely fine too and I use them all the time.
