Fragment of the Thousand Character Classic / Zhi Yong's version (真草千字文・智永) / paper size 135x35 / small brush / hanging arm technique.

as interpreted by Nathan Sturman:

clouds soar up to end in rain;
the dew congeals to morning frost.
gold is born in the River Li;
jade comes from Kunlun's vault.
a sword is styled "Excalibur";
a pearl, the "Gleam of Night".
dearest fruit are pears and apples;
fine crops mustard, ginger.
sea is saline, streams sublime;

Born in 1975 in Europe. Resides in Japan since 2001. Japan-based multi-genre artist. Japanese calligrapher, photographer, body art calligrapher, and photoshop artist.
