Great article indeed, thank you for sharing us the principles of the Rinsho and your way to practice it in your art & your personal life.

May I know more about the book 書道芸術 ? I am interesting to buy this book, and It will be helpful to get more details about it, like its ISBN.

Thanks, Guy

Dear Steve and Judit,
I am glad you both enjoyed the article, but the people you should be thanking for it is Steve Anderson and Sakiko Yanagisawa.

I missed a bit of code which cause the Author Box not to update correctly. I ave fixed it now and I am sorry for the confusion.

Sorry
Dave.

Very educative article, thanks a lot! Indeed sealing my work has often been a cause for sweat (and sometimes tears).

Unfortunately the youtube-video can not be played in Germany due to copyright-issues with the music. Would you mind providing a music-free version?

Hello NyNy, nice to see your comment here. Speaking for Beyond Calligraphy as the English editor and writer who has been studying Japanese calligraphy, I can tell you that I could not translate such an article. The writer and calligrapher is Sakiko Yanagisawa, and it takes a team to write, translate and develop further the website. Translating Kanji is a very highly specialized skill requiring lots of study. So while I cannot personally tell you how to improve your blog, I know that you are on the right path. Our website is about, just as the name says, Beyond Calligraphy. We welcome you to join us on this journey.
