Professional skills with a friendly heart: Thank you Akiko-sensei! A profound experience, even for a Japanese native

5.00Even as a Japanese person with prior experience in Shodo, this was a truly wonderful session. It gave me a fresh and deeper understanding of the structure of Kanji. I gained so many new insights into the aesthetics of calligraphy, particularly regarding the balance of Kanji components—learning the proper length, slant, and size for each part. Akiko-sensei is a highly skilled professional calligrapher, yet she is incredibly friendly. She answered all my questions and clarified my doubts with great patience and care. For the final piece, I wrote my name on a shikishi board. I hadn't held a brush since elementary school—over 50 years ago—so I was quite nervous! However, when Akiko-sensei firmly pressed the rakkan (red seal) onto the paper at the very end, my writing suddenly felt like a legitimate piece of art. It is a wonderful memory that I will cherish.
