According to the lunar calendar, today falls on the first day of winter.  I think I must try and devote myself to calligraphy with a tranquil mind as this haiku implies.

.

If you have a favorite character or phrase that you would like me to write, please let me know by sending it (them) to my address,　chio_art@yushokai.com.

旧暦では今日は立冬です。この句のように心静かに書に向かえるように頑張らねば。

.

さて、私の書で見てみたいと思われるお好きな字や、言葉などがありましたら、chio_art@yushokai.com宛にお教えください。
