atelierkakko Natalia is a tourist visiting from Argentina. It was her first time trying calligraphy.
First of all, she wanted to write her name in Japanese, so she will practice hiragana and katakana in this workshop.
Before that, she carefully practiced her brush strokes on the character “twenty”.
She was able to write strong characters from the first piece, so she practiced further by writing the slightly more difficult character “eternity”.
I was surprised that she was able to write it so well in one go!
Since she was a painter, I didn’t think there was any need to take it so slowly,
and after that I just taught her the name I wanted him to write in hiragana as well as katakana,
and she started writing hiragana too ^^;
She had written the letter “a” beautifully with brush strokes that made it hard to believe it was her first time,
so I wrote “words that start with “a”: “‘Arigatou’ means thank you,” and asked her to write it by hand as well ^^
The turn, the stroke, and the sweep were all neatly done, and it looked as if it had been written by a Japanese person who had studied calligraphy.
Her firm handwriting makes him seem like a Japanese person who is studying calligraphy.
It’s amazing that he was able to write it on just one or two sheets of paper✨
I wonder if the last one is his motto on the colored paper?
She said he wanted to write “cherish yourself and be grateful to yourself,” so
I checked the meaning, chose the character “self-love,”
and practiced on two sheets of colored paper and wrote it out neatly＾＾
