Celebrate the Year of the Horse with Chinese Calligraphy

Celebrate the Year of the Horse, one of the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac, with a calligraphy video demonstrating four script types, including seal script, clerical script, standard script, and semicursive/cursive script. Using brush and ink, scholar and artist Zheng Wei 鄭威 deftly shows the skills required to form the character for horse in four different ways, proceeding from the most ancient—seal script—through the different script types of Chinese calligraphy. Grab your brush and ink and give calligraphy a try to commemorate the Lunar New Year!
