Been surrounded by a lot of calligraphy lately at Grandma's and it has inspired me to get back into it myself.

Just sharing some little experiments and logo designs.

1) Words by Sījié with a cursive version of 字 zì "character/word'

2) The piece with 茶 chá "tea", the way the character turned out made me think of a grumpy bearded old man with bushy brows, so I ended up drawing one next to it. 😃

3) 橙 chéng "orange" in the shape of well, an orange. 🍊

4) 心 xīn "heart", one of my favourite characters to practice Cursive/One stroke writing.

World History Encyclopedia - Ancient Chinese Art

Ancient China covered a vast and ever-changing geopolitical landscape, and the art it produced over three millennia is, unsurprisingly, just as varied. https://www.worldhistory.org/Chinese_Art/ #History #China #ChineseArt #ChineseCalligraphy
