孔廟三大碑
The Three Great Steles of Confucius Temple
禮器碑 Stele about Ritual Objects
史晨碑 Shi Chen at a Sacrificial Service
乙瑛碑 Stele about Prime Minister Yi Ying

This book is sold for US $3 to $10 in various bookstores in America. This clerical style requires very light but vigorous brush strokes. So try not to press the brush too hard or too deep.
The three models have been regarded as the cornerstones of learning Li Shu either for beginners or experienced calligraphers. The inscription on the wall was dedicated to Confucius and says Confucius knowledge was deep as 10,000 walls in the palace and beyond measure. The samples in this video were written with the "All Purpose Brushes" as introduced in other video(s) that are sold for US $1 each as of early 2008.
There are many free articles and high quality pictures of Chinese calligraphy, painting, seals, and Chinese mounting at http://www.8mhh.com/ldwl/shufacs/

  • I have added some more notes in description since it's hard to add annotations in videos that are longer. The Guzheng music is the famous "High Mountain Flowing Water (River)." The video is about Confucius Temple where rituals are performed and there are many steles that were inscribed with beautiful calligraphy in praise of Confucius' teachings. Some steles have been calligraphy models for thousands of years. Allow me some time to add more vids and pics for those great models. Thanks :)

  • Very beautiful! The calm way, you are writing is amazing. The Kanji look so clear, and yet they are so full of passion. The music is also very beautiful. Can you tell me, what it is?

    I have no idea, what it was with the temple, and the wall writings, but they look ancient!

    5 shuriken!
