Little fun challenge!
First attempt at writing the biáng character, which is a type of noodle in Shaanxi cuisine. Deemed the most complex "genuine" Chinese character with its 58 strokes. Full of flaws but not too bad for a first I guess.
Next challenge: an "artistic" character made of 172 strokes. Wish me luck!

Been surrounded by a lot of calligraphy lately at Grandma's and it has inspired me to get back into it myself.

Just sharing some little experiments and logo designs.

1) Words by Sījié with a cursive version of 字 zì "character/word'

2) The piece with 茶 chá "tea", the way the character turned out made me think of a grumpy bearded old man with bushy brows, so I ended up drawing one next to it. 😃

3) 橙 chéng "orange" in the shape of well, an orange. 🍊

4) 心 xīn "heart", one of my favourite characters to practice Cursive/One stroke writing.

Found a nice (if unseasonal) autumn poem by Ma Zhiyuan 馬致遠 of the Yuan dynasty, thought I'd get a brush out and try it out. Second attempt, fairly rough, two little mistakes.
