Li Shu 隸書 Chinese calligraphy sample lesson #2 (why prefer older rubbings?)

[Ihatemyusernamemore]

I love the music in these videos, I like seeing Chinese calligraphy videos because It gives good backing to my Japanese writing, I've recently dedicated myself to learning 3000 Kanji( Japanese Hanzhi ) and I'm trying to learn to write them as beautifully as possible so these videos are really helpful.

now seeing your comparison, i see the difference between the non-faithful ones, yikes, they look so... wrong. XO No understanding at all.

I have visited the Shi-bei area in Xi-an two years ago, it was an exciting time but i couldn't stay long enough to take a real good look at those stones. A regretful thing.

It takes time to tell the faithful and non-faithful rubbings. When I was young, I bought several altered versions which I never use again.

I think i got a couple of those lurking somewhere.

The spirit of art is its originality.
