About Yumi
Grow up in Taiwan and Japan. I started dabbling in the art of calligraphy at the age of 6 and have since been developing my distinctive approach towards ancient script. After moved to Japan, I studied oil painting, sketching, contemporary art, photography and challenged many type of Arts in Japan.
In the pursuit of a true Art I found a way to my spiritual expression within the Chinese and Japanese Calligraphy. Since then the brush is rooted to my heart.
In 2009 I focused on Chinese traditional calligraphy and I studied under the Master Liu Hong in Japan. The following year I was awarded the highest title of “Professor” by the Chinese Calligraphy Academy accredited by the Shanghai University and given the calligrapher name ”Gaxing”（雅心）
While doing my calligraphy Art, I also worked on projects such as Live performance, various type of design and Contemporary Ink paintings.
I continue to produce artworks and strives to convey the essence of peace, the Zen philosophy, in my calligraphy.

• Every Chinese character is built up in its own square with variety of structure and composition.
• There are drawing of only three basic forms: the circle, the triangle, and the square.
• For each character there is a definite number of strokes and appointed positions for them in relation to the whole.
• No stroke may be added or deleted for decorative effect.
• Strict regularity is not required.
• The pattern should have a living movement.
Calligraphy Training:
• Learn how to handle the brush and to grid the ink
• Practice strokes and lines by write over in black ink the trace lines of characters.
• Copy from the good calligraphy models, using graph paper.

Perfect! We reviewed my past achievements (from a very long time ago), plus the books and supplies I now have at hand, and Yumi outlined what we might do in the next few lessons. I'm very much looking forward to meeting with her again in a few weeks' time.
- We have very nice talk and I'm looking forward to meeting with her again. Let’s have fun calligraphy together :)Yumi's response :
