Datong is my classmate at Nanjing Univ. He currently teaches Chinese calligraphy and painting in Tucson, AZ. We have been good friends for thirty years. Recently he visited our home in LA and had great time doing painting and calligraphy together. I requested him to do this video to demonstrate the evolution of Chinese writing system and Calligraphy for my YouTube channel viwers. In Chinese art esthetics, calligraphy and painting are of common origin. Hope you enjoy!
