Calligraphy has much in common with other art disciplines; it can incorporate the rhythm and emotion of poetry, the pattern and mood of painting, the rhythm and melody of music and dance, etc. between the brush and ink. In calligraphy we can see solemnity and elegance, contrast and harmony, emotion and reason, discipline and liberty. Whether we are looking for classical, romantic, aesthetic, or spirited aesthetics, we can find a way to express ourselves in calligraphy.
