Calligraphy

[johnnyfisalive]

where did u learn to write like that?

[yanghaiying]

@johnnyfisalive at home.

[Cutegirl12316]

Beautiful, I love how you decorated it! So nice. Lol, and @slip9906, I had the same reaction on the "y" but when I saw the rest I'm like, "Oh, wait. Oh no you didn't >__>"

[janetkatz1]

Beautiful, as always.

[slip9906]

lol u got me at the end of "Y" lol i was like u messed up.....wait,...no you didnt

[MiSsHoPeLeSs08]

what pen do you use ?? or is a brush ??

[yanghaiying]

@MiSsHoPeLeSs08 It is a brush.

[CrazyIMG]

@MiSsHoPeLeSs08 oh wow

[zamuriaz]

@ blaghdude11 no but you first need to know how to spell calligraphy

[zamuriaz]

I likes it but u killed it with the tail on the y. If u would have connected it all maybe but u left gaps in it

[nesli]

@zamuriaz she always leaves gaps to show which one is on top, bottom line generally is separated by the top one ;)

[albert333pool]

gotta be asian. your good!

[Blaghdude11]

Do you need to be right handed to write coligraphy?

[Aciddaggerr]

haha messed up the y and tried to cover it up making the whole thing even worse

[UAZange]

great work!!!

[Nikonikk]

It started as something simple and ellegant, but it became too charged with unnecessary decoration. Stick to the essentials.

[randomnus101]

Amazing

[xGuera7x]

At first wen he wus startin to do tha Y iwus like....."dude...wtf yu duinn ?"

[superbetyl]

When you have a copy, yes its easy to do calligraphy dude, indeed!... :S

[Swetlana0]

I can hear the clock ticking in the bg :p

[MegaLizz96]

Great job!!!

[Pwnr145]

dont you hate painting up instead of down.... it sucks.... nice writing tho....

[yanghaiying]

@Pwnr145 It is much easier painting up with brush than pen.

[DarkStarSk8a24]

amazing! but the ending was a little overdone

[InfiniteGXT]

so much drama

[royaltornado]

Arabic Calligraphy is the best

!!!

can defeat any calligraphy of other language

[yanghaiying]

@royaltornado Love Arabic calligraphy, as well as other calligraphy style. However, I doubt if the word best exist in a world of relativity.

[royaltornado]

@yanghaiying

that just my Opinion !!

please don't take that in seriously way !!

[XxRavynRampagexX]

is it weird that I've always written like this? Since 3rd grade when we learned cursive mine always looked....fancier... now I know why lol. This is what I normally write in. Weirdo me.

[CannedCheese01]

I'm still learning (not very good)

[TheLilaznboi14]

would it smeared the writing if you touch it

[yanghaiying]

@TheLilaznboi14 Yes before dried. However, it take only a few minutes to dry and it will not smear when dried.

[anvi08able]

@TheLilaznboi14 aa a a how dumb are you????

[XxScrunchie97xX]

this is beautiful

[IchHeisseMarco]

Really awesome, I wish I could do that, only one thing, as far as I know that's not calligraphy.

[Asornamate]

japaneese brush or somthing like that right?

[2001ALS2008]

the "C" & "a" were th best ;D

[Curraheebob225]

the "brush" called MAOBI~ in Chinese~It has been the main writing tool in china for over 2500 years!

[rhcp4565]

thats what years of writing chinese characters will do for ya....so beautiful. I love writing characters!

[CloserExamination]

Not too bad. It probably wouldn't hurt to take a pointed brush class or workshop. Your brush is a bit too steep in relation to the writing surface.  Pointed brush requires a much flatter angle. This is causing inconsistencies in your strokes. Furthermore, you need to be writing at the correct speed.

[TheCandy24G]

Cool

[VasutasKollegina]

Is it a brush, that you use for it?

[yanghaiying]

@VasutasKollegina Yes. A brush.

[aalexxanderr]

它很好。

[ChrYssbulanu]

Looks like Coca-Cola somewhat but still very beautiful :D

[HappyinDenim]

calligraphy can be done with a brush...japanese calligraphy is don with brushe strokes... calligraphy can vary in different circumstances... i dont think anything should be so specified... its still wonderful writing...

[mrbluenun]

Hi yanghaiying,

I just love your wonderful skill and calligraphic brush-work! Thank you for showing your videos on YouTube!

Did it take long for you to become such a great Artist?

I have a tremor, and have decided to take up calligraphy as a pass-time, to try and control the tremor, and end up with something which may be just 1% as skill-full as yours!

I have now subscribed to your amazing site, many thanks for uploading such interesting videos.

[rubikscube10111]

very beutiful, just one question. can you do caligraphy with a fountain pen.

[yanghaiying]

@rubikscube10111 I am learning, but not good. 

[ashleylovesprincess]

Im sorry to say but i think that i see him/her tracing something so im saying that really you should use a fountin pen with different thicknesses because thats hw you make caligraphy and no offence t the man/lady doing this but if you are tracing well what im saying is if your tracing well you canuse anything but if your not its not good to use a brush plus calligraphy has both thick and thing lines so im sorry but i cant really call that "REAL" caligraphy sorry!

[yanghaiying]

@ashleylovesprincess It's not important what we call it. It's not important if its pretty or not. I enjoy my brush movement on paper. That's all. By the way, I did not trace. I had written a few dozen the same thing and I used one sheet of exercise paper under this piece of paper tower or the ink do not mess my table.

Thank you for your time.

[ashleylovesprincess]

@yanghaiying ok i am very sorry thank YOU for taking the time to respond to me

thank you

[yanghaiying]

@ashleylovesprincess It's me to say thank you. I really appreciate what you have pointed out. You make me think and want to do more and better. Sincerely, Haiying

[KalKyuLayTor]

HOSHI- IS THAT A BRUSH!? THIS WAS DONE WITH A BRUSH!?

DAMN, not even a copperplate NIB. A BRUSH man, this is beyond impressive.

[yanghaiying]

@KalKyuLayTor That was a brush. Chinese painting brush. Or watercolor brush will do.

[wolfca]

you should do wedding invitations and special event cards!

[kkkcccxx10]

wooooooooow nd i tought ihad nice writing

[miranaeb2]

what type of pen and paper did you use and were could i get some

[v2rocketss]

毛笔？maybe a good idea

[doghappy101]

you should fix the 'g''

[graffsucks]

the white noise plus the sound of the brush stroke is so relaxing and the cherry on top is the awesome work you make

[zappingoreo]

dang thats amazingly AWSOME!

[TheIreneaustin]

wow! wow, wow!

[MusicViddeos]

creative, im learning right now! It seems hard at first but I can't wait until I can write like you... :)

[koalatotoro]

wow! East meets West! Chinese calligraphic pen for western callirgraphy style. cool.

[blackxknight]

lol i was like "why is the 'y' so long?" but in the end it turned out good :D

you should use a fountain pen or something

[yanghaiying]

@blackxknight Thank you. As you can see I was lost and I do use calligraphy fountain pen also.

[Iusefatgirls]

@blackxknight Yeah It was great until you did the "Y" look to the automotive pinstripers for help with your filagree.

[edohannema]

@blackxknight Original calligraphy is performed with a brush, or with a goose feather

[krys2looper]

başarılar sayfamada beklerim

[arexp909]

[sadbunny123]

[Kevin323gaw]

[tarjr94]

[elgama11]

[gearsplayer12]

wow. this is an art form on its own

[raeann314]

looks like a 9 year old did this

[brian8793]

Jeolousy MUCH:(

[camtuffley]

took ya 3 mins to write calligraphy!!

imagine trying to write a letter to nanna!!

[sk8boarderboy]

no it only took 1 minute and 1 second the rest was just doing wavy lines throughout the paper and a letter would only be like half an hour :)

[AmurgAprins]

@camtuffley Dude it's art,you can use e-mail for letters.Some people try to keep this form of art alive what is so hard to understand lol.

[camtuffley]

@AmurgAprins i do realise that.

there is a real need for a sarcasm font

[Blueice619]

For future reference a little :p generally gets the point across

[hostelowner]

well lol you wouldnt use a big calligraphy brush like that and you certainly wouldnt be that fancy youd use a nib and try to be as fast a posible yet soft enough to not rip the page.

[IMMUNEHUMAN]

you really lost it on that Y. Should have quit while you were ahead

[7006351]

precision :)

[ibanedfrmrs2]

this looks better than a preformatted design from a computer! Great Job! i am a subscriber now!

[bioha2ar3]

I love making Calligraphy and people always comment on how I write because I write calligraphy for everything!! keeping it alive!!

[LoveMiIa]

Very wonderful! your so steady and flows so naturally

[leahanddusty12]

i thought the y would just distry the whole thing when you started it, you know, but then you made it look so ... creative

[californialver45]

my mom bought me a calligraphy thing so im practicing it i know how to do all the letters but i have troubles with the a sometimes

[pepeYjuana]

Whoa, that is great! I have never seen someone work a brush with your level of finesse before. Very nice.

[jolziomiksde]

at the begining i though the "y" will destroy all the effect, but in the end... it isn;t bad, though :D

[yanghaiying]

True, the y was not right at the beginning, so I was trying to find a way to get out. I did not expect it came out this way.

[jolziomiksde]

ahh, so it was like improvisation, right?

respect :)

[IcyHail]

ROFL the Y just keeps on going, haha. Looks very nice, i always thought that stuff was done on computers!

[kragier]

It usually is, but there are some who kept the old art alive and boy, I think it is really worth it to learn!

[ibrahim1x]

does the prush have a code name ir a name ?

[NzHottestPrincess]

im learning this... any tips ?

[yanghaiying]

Yes, get a book, copy the model, many many times. This is how I learn everything.

[xxxk0r0naxxx]

that was really cool it was nice to sit and watch, kinda relaxing

[FatRiceBoi]

The stuff at the end looks nice but the beginning of it, at the 'y' looks ugly.

[Ereshkigal234]

Does your hand ever get tired from doing these practices? It looks very strenuous on the wrist and forearm.

[meeshmallow]

ROFL wiith the dot on the "i" in the end !

[yanghaiying]

Calligraphy can make people ROFL, ha,I am so flattered. Thank you.

[andeaver1937]

cool pen...I hear cars in the background

[smallguy241]

its a brush?

[mmjk84]

Wow your brush skills are clean and tight, and yet I thought pens were hard, I could only imagine how hard using a brush would be LOL. Keep up the good work, I'll be up at the level someday~~~

[juiceboy12vids]

your videos r cool

[juiceboy12vids]

did u copy it? over a piece of paper cause i saw paper below

[yanghaiying]

No. That might be an exercise paper of much smaller size, put under to protect the lower paper from getting wet. Thank you for being to attentive.

[chihuahuab]

not that gd... but keep on! =]

[ApLsToApLsOs]

That is the shiz nits. Kudos to you.
