This weekend, I started dabbling more seriously in Chinese calligraphy. I recently purchased a book called The Complete Guide to Chinese Calligraphy by Qu Lei Lei and the instructions look simple and easy to follow.

The art of writing Chinese characters looks hard but now that I've seen it broken down into steps, it doesn't seem as difficult.

When I create my first masterpiece ;), I'll share pics with everyone smile

If anyone has any tips or comments they would like to make, feel free. We're all ears. If you have done some Chinese caligraphy and would like to share it here, I am sure everyone would love to see it.
