Learn how to sign your phonetic first name in Chinese with a custom calligraphy guide which will take you to videos to show you how to paint your characters and to hear how your name sounds in Chinese. You will also get a questionnaire to fill out to send to me after class to help you pick a Chinese artistic name, and after you choose it and you will get a second calligraphy guide from me by email for your choice from ten suggested names. Using gridded calligraphy paper and ungridded paper and gridded felt mat, you will practice painting your characters smaller and smaller. You will learn which size brushes go with which size squares. Learn about seal paste stirring and oiling and how to stamp to get a good impression and what to do when your paste goes dry. Learn about different types, shapes and usage of seals (placement). Learn the correct sizes for your seal depending on your artwork size. Learn how to fix a mistake, how to use colors of seal paste to complement your work, and how to use your seal on unfriendly papers. Please register at Clarke County Parks and Recreation. Look for “Chinese” under the programs.
