Chinese calligraphy is an important part of traditional Chinese culture. There
are many famous calligraphers in history, such as Wang Xizhi and Yan Zhenqing. Different calligraphy works can show their unique emotions and personalities. Today, such works can be seen on the walls of offices, shops, hotels and many other places.
Calligraphy has a history of 4,000 to 5,000 years. It started in China and spread to other parts of Asia along with Chinese culture. Calligraphy is the art of writing Chinese characters with a brush.
"If I had lived in China, I would have become a calligrapher rather than a painter," the world-famous master of art, Picasso, once said after watching Zhang Daqian write his name with a writing brush.
The tools for practicing calligraphy are writing brushes. They are usually made from the hair of different animals. One popular type is made from infant hair(胎毛). No one knows for sure where this tradition comes from, but hundreds of years ago in China, people started to believe this kind of writing brush was a symbol of good luck.
