OBJECTIVE
My concept and challenge behind the book as a whole will be
based on the history of calligraphy, but will communicate through
my own style and exploration of handwritten words with Japanese
ink and brush, nib pens, flat modern Pilot pens, and large size paint
brushes on a bigger scale. Some will have a traditional straight
forward style, while other examples will have a mixture of calligraphy
and graffiti style. All styles will tie into its roots and will evoke
the viewer to have the want to explore on their own.

DESIGN
The main message I want to get across to the audience, is that
old and unique ways of calligraphy are still used and created, but
not as much in present time. And the more the artform is practiced,
the more people will create it experimentally. You just have
to put in the time and effort. The take away for the audience is
to view what examples created and researched and to have the
want to research on their own.
