And with some of these, I tried combining two kinds of paper, cloth and paper; and thin sheet of paper and thick cards. In short, these are all at the experimental stage.

These are some of the results of today’s practice session. The one with man’yōganawas the most difficult.

Going back to the point of origin

This is the very first task that my first calligraphy teacher, the late Mr. Akiyama Kodo (秋山公道) gave me about 57 years ago.

Unfortunately, I can’t think of anything else when someone comes to me and asks me to teach them basic calligraphy and I always give my new students this same task in the first lesson. I asked my senior calligrapher how I could teach the beginners differently, and her answer was, “That’s only natural and it can’t be helped. People can teach only how they were taught, after all.”

Favorite flower and favorite haiku

For this single-leaf screen, I chose my favorite haiku about my favorite flower, hydrangeas. I remembered about this screen when a kind-hearted neighbor gave us these flowers from her garden yesterday evening. This screen is an old work of mine from about ten years ago. It welcomed visitors at the entrance to my first solo exhibition. I am now flooded with many good memories of the exhibition.
