dear calligrapher

Considering that the modern etegami movement was born from a rebellion against the restrictions of traditional Japanese arts-- particularly calligraphy-- I was a little surprised when a website called Beyond Calligraphy asked me for an article introducing etegami to calligraphers. Click HERE to see the result.

    1. Thanks for reading it, Carol. There was nothing in it that I haven't said many times before, but it was good to have another chance to summarize it for those who didn't know.

  2. Excellent article, Debbie. I am always inspired by the words and pictures you use in your etegami but thought it was beyond my ability. After reading that being awkward is okay, I might give it a go!
