@cristobelle56 Some of my videos have comprehensive overview of several calligraphy styles. They are not meant to make you remember many exceptions of alternative stroke sequences, meanings... unless you are determined to master Chinese calligraphy at an earlier stage of learning Mandarin.
The topics introduced at my Website - Styles - Kai Shu and Li Shu are currently in summarized forms which do not cover many in-depth details.
Best wishes on your learning and progresses.

Thank you for yet another lesson not only on brush writing but on the meaning of Kai Shu, Seal Script (I guess this is the ancient form of chinese writing ?). It's really complicated. I'm struggling with self-taught Hanyu Pinyin and simplified chinese words. Best,
