Mop-sized Brush
Mr Chi Zhang demonstrate the most expressive format of Chinese writing – cursive style with a mop-sized brush.


Chinese characters in different styles:
虎(Hu)Tiger
象(Xiang)elephant
鹿(Lu)Deer
From Pictography to regular style or cursive style.
All three chracters on the left were 象形字 which means 'imitation of pictures', a completed drawing of the thing following its shape and curves.
