The practice of brush writing, or "calligraphy," as it is known in the West, which literally translates to "beautiful handwriting," encompasses and goes beyond calligraphy in East Asia.
A fascination with the creative potential of writing characters using flexible animal-hair brushes was passed down to Japan from China. This prominent position illustrates how significant the written word is in East Asian societies. Chinese calligraphy, an ancient expressive art, reflects a person's emotions, moral integrity, character, educational level, accomplishments in self-cultivation, intellectual tastes, and way of life in addition to expressing the abstract beauty of lines and rhythms through the organization of lines and dots. The way characters are written "is a portrait of the person who writes them," according to an old Chinese proverb.
