Chinese Calligraphy
July 14th, 2010
When doing Chinese Calligraphy is the ink supposed to spread out so far from the brush?
When I do Chinese calligraphy my ink travels about 3-5mm from the brush. What I paint doesn’t looks to bad. If i make the ink thicker than the brush kind of loses it’s tip and i get some wierd stuff. I’m using a sheep brush, inkstone and stick and chinese calligraphy paper. Also to make the ink lighter I am supposed to use more water but, Then the ink travels even further.
Can someone help me? please!
Sounds like the paper is your culprit. Usually, Chinese calligraphy paper (sometimes called Rice Paper) is smooth on one side and a little rougher on the other. You should be using the smooth side so it doesn’t absorb the water so quickly.
If this doesn’t help, try a different paper – some are better than others. Everything else you’re doing sounds right.
