Kyuyo Tabata

We put our heart into each stroke and create the beauty

 

Fragrance of Sumi filling our mind with peace and the joy of writing

 

Thinking of our ancestors and striving to improve ourselves

 

From Square style (Kai-sho), semi cursive style (Gyo-sho),  cursive style (So-sho) and to Kana, so many style in between , Shodo provides deep intricacies

 

Calmly we work hard and practice, knowing that our dream will come true

 

Coming together of Shodo ,Shigin (recitation of poem) and painting creates new performance filled with joy and happiness
