I would also like to add that I'm not trying to learn Chinese or Chinese character writing or Chinese culture as much as I am mastering the brush strokes involved in Chinese calligraphy. If I can also absorb knowledge in those other areas, fine. But my main goal is to master the strokes so that I can move on to using the techniques for my own art. Many thanks again for your videos!
@sotto2 Thank you for your comments. I have never used brush pens before, and I'm not quite sure what the portable practice kits are. I will consider covering them though. If you're looking for brush strokes for painting, I suggest you seek instructions specifically for painting. You might get more from it. There is a wider variety of strokes and techniques for painting (many of which are illegal in writing).
I'm really looking forward to your vids. I really like the close-ups of slow painting of the basic strokes. It's perfect for my early stage in learning. Also, can you please make a vid about very portable practice calligraphy kits; for example the brush pens with built-in ink reservoirs. Do you use straight liquid ink in those, or diluted, good papers or notebooks, how to carry examples of characters you're working on, things like that. Many thanks!
I think is necessary to show and explain if the hand holding the brush can rest directly on the table or not. What is the correct stance or instruction on this and how to do it according to the circumstances? Also, if it is appropriate to use the movement of the wrist when writing. Thank you.
Can you please explain the difference in holding the brush, the stroke order ect. for left-handed people when learning this right-handed is no option? How many lessons are you planning? I wish you enough
perserverance and courage to deal with all that's coming to you in this world.wide. classroom. Good Luck!
Thank you for your comments. I will address left-handed writing. I will make as many lessons as necessary, and if I don't think I covered a topic very well, I may just talk about it later in another lesson.
Well, the first thing that came across my mind was if there are rules in chinese calligraphy when writting a poem, for example. This maybe is a more advanced subject, but if there are, maybe you could demonstrate about this later on .
For example, what to do or not to do with signature and seals after you have completed a calligraphy work, or if it is correct to mix styles in one composition.
Also, could you explain on the subject of size in character writing? I see in most of the best videos in Youtube on Chinese calligraphy, like the ones you posted on the brothers Tian or the ones from Mr. Joshua, that the writing is small or midsize at most. What are the sizes for calligraphy when practicing or for artistic display, and the correct use of brushes sizes and technique in those circumstances?
The norms and aethetics of signature, seals, dating, inscription, and positioning on Chinese calligraphy and painting have certain rules, taboos, or related philosophy. Once we talked about this and a guy labeled us as a racist. On YouTube there are many videos and uninformed artists (either Chinese or Westerners) that have not learned those topics and are showing their work unawared of their violations. If those works are posted in China, people will certainly figure out!
I am waiting...

OK. I will try to cover that when talking about posture and holding the brush.

Thank you for your comments. I plan on addressing most of your ideas. I might not talk about poetry until much later though.

There are many rules but some of them are not absolute. It takes many examples to explain.

Yes that Wiki Webpage has articles and knowledge cited from famous scholars such as 于省吾 Yú Xĭngwú, Lĭ Xuéqín 李學勤, and etc. Thanks for your efforts.
