Description of Piece:
I am sharing the moment of my friend and I practicing writing Japanese calligraphy in an
afterschool club. Every day after school, I practice writing big Japanese calligraphy letters
on paper. Calligraphy is a traditional Japanese custom and it is very popular in Japan.
The value of what I am showing is the discipline necessary to achieve a goal. Of all the
things I like, I like Japanese calligraphy the best because it is fun. I practice a lot to become
better. Calligraphy is a very important highlight for me in my school work.
More about the artist:
I live with my father and mother. I like watching TV or relaxing while practicing writing the
Japanese characters. I like to eat Chinese dumplings, but I don’t like beans. When I grow up
I want to be a teacher.
