In preparation for our Japanese calligraphy session this weekend, ( And yes, I am so EXCITED!) I thought it would be a good idea to post about the origins of calligraphy in Japan and how it translated in to the current writing system that they have today! This way when you are learning all the crazy characters and stroke orders on Saturday, you will know not only what they mean, but where they came from and how they are used today to communicate written knowledge!
