Seal cutting Ⅰ Japanese calligraphy

It is called "rakkann" to seal with a signature of the calligraphy.
It is called "tennkoku" to make the seal (seal cutting).




Tennkoku is established as the world of the art which a calligraphy and a sculpture connected. I make it with oneself.




As for this stone, tennkoku is for exclusive use.
There are various kinds and scales.

As for the most famous seal, it was sealed calligraphy of Wang Xizhi.

Seal cutting Ⅱ Japanese calligraphy

There are two kinds of rakkann (seal).
The letter that the right side is red. The letter that the left is white.




A red letter is called "shu bun".
(shu bun in Japanese, lit. "red characters" seals imprint the Chinese characters in red ink.)

A white letter is called "haku bun".
(haku bun in Japanese, lit. "white characters" seals imprint the background in red, leaving white characters.)




I sculpt it such an appliance across the stone. The chisel has various kinds depending on the size of the character, the kind of the stone.




I sculpt a letter it while referring to a seal character dictionary.
A calligrapher is a sculptor, too.

Peace and tranquility of the inlet Ⅱ

"One piece" is a gull.
There is a rock appearing on the surface of the water a little.
A bird stops. Thank you for watching a photograph carefully.



In this peaceful view, may you find "one piece" on it?



The shadow signs stillness. The stillness fancies a shadow.

It is strange that a shadow thickens so that the sky shines if light glistens. And the expanse is the same scale, too.

As for me, see it in a mystery of the Nature.

" Wonder " Japanese calligraphy

　　　"不" (fu, etc). It is a meaning no, not, etc. It is used as "un-" prefix.
　　　This character is written by Kanzi, Regular script.

　　　"不" originated as a pictographic character which depicted the calyx of a flower.

　　　It expresses various meanings with the phrase.
　　　"不変"(fu henn) is a meaning immutability, eternity, etc.
　　　"不思議"(fu shi gi) is a meaning wonder, strange, etc.

　　　I guess that it is suitable to express Nature.

Peace and tranquility of the inlet Ⅰ

　　　In this area, shorelines are complicated. Therefore we can watch interesting molding of the Nature.

　　　It is the very inconvenient sterile zone where most of the people do not live in. On that day, it was space without waves, sounds.

　　　Here is Genkai-chō, Saga Prefecture.
