Ying and Yang - Chinese calligraphy in ancient seal script

9/4/2014

I wrote this Chinese calligraphy some time ago, but I gave it a new look today in photoshop. Both characters are in ancient seal script, which is the oldest script in Chinese calligraphy, and also the most complex one. I gave those characters a slightly modern look, though I realise that it might be difficult to spot for anyone who is not familiar with seal script. Top character is 陽 and the bottom one is 陰, and their meaning is Yang (Sun), and Yin (shadow).

Void mind - finding harmony and peace in simplicity

Early morning, I went to the beach today to shoot some aroma oils photos for a new project that I am working on with a Japanese artist, Snow Forest. Beach has one of the most simple landscapes, yet there is always so much to photograph. Shells, driftwood, sand patterns, waves, stones, and so on. So, I gathered a few pebles, and made a simple Zen sculpture. Then I added my calligraphy work to it in photoshop. 空心 - the void mind, or void heart, a heart which is filled with nothing but peace, harmony and nothingness of thoughts. Calligraphy in semi-cursive script.
