Writing a name in Chinese calligraphy semi-cursive style on red gold fleck Xuan paper ( 紅色灑金宣紙 - 萬年紅 ) during a concert in celebration of lantern festival on February 28, 2010.
萬年紅 (literally "Ten Thousand Years Red") is deluxe Xuan paper that is thicker, less wrinkled after writing, and has longer lasting red dye. This 萬年紅 is three times more expensive than the other red paper I am using. As a tradition, we Chinese don't write people's names on white paper when using ink and brush.
First character 鄭 (family name)
Second character 則
Third character was not recorded. The second and third characters are the given name.
