"Centered Tip Principle" for Chinese calligraphy writing
http://www.art-virtue.com/principles/p5-centertip.htm
Due to the tackiness and density of the gold pigment powder, I made a rare exception to the Center Tip Principle between 2:37 and 2:40. I overly pressed the brush's bristle up to one half in consideration of the size of the brush and the ingredients of the gold powder. If the brush is pressed more than 1/2 or 2/3, the strokes will lose their vitalities.

@FOXnewsAlien The Cursive (Running) and Semi-Cursive (Walking) Scripts may look fluid, free, wild, flowing, elegant... I am sending you links for more explanations. Thanks.

@cristobelle56 Thank you.

不客氣 is "You are welcome." Pinyin is bu ke qi.

不客氣

[SokudoJutsu]

This is so beautiful! 謝謝你.

[cristobelle56]

@artvirtue I can just about guess your reply is "bu ke qi".  The gold pigment is simply beautiful and so are the paperweight and ink slab. Best

[artvirtue]

@kecudmore Yes! They do have very reliable products.
