Digital Age Calligraphy Art
Digital technology has transcended my traditional Japanese calligraphy skills to this!!! Currently, very few award-winning top calligraphers including me do this type of work. Below are some of my design works I did for myself and my clients.
Bondage (Kizuna)I created them as mementos of my getting married to my lovely wife. I calligraphed the Japanese word "kizuna" (bondage) with a traditional brush and ink, turned it into a digital art, and created the cup and postcards with it.

Literacy ChampionThis was done for Lincoln Literacy. With my signature calligraphic style, I wrote the phrase "Literacy Champion" with a traditional brush and ink, and turned it into a digital art for a t-shirt design. If you are wondering why the letters don't look like "literacy champion," it's because Japanese alphabets were used instead of English alphabets.

LED Sign Board (Son)I created this as a birthday present for my wife. I calligraphed the Japanese word "son" (respectful) onto the sign board, cut through the strokes, and added an LED lamp to light up from behind.

Product Package LogoThis was done for Worldwide-net. They needed a Japanese calligraphy style logo for their software product.
|
Web GraphicThis was done for a folk dance group in Japan known as Suikyoren. They wanted their group name calligraphed in a traditional Japanese calligraphy style so that they could use it on their website.

Tumbler DesignsMy client saw my wedding mug cup and wanted to make tumblers with the similar concept for his son.

Craft & Calligraphy
Since none of the calligraphy accessories I have found in stores appealed to me, I have created these on my own.
Kanji Necklace (Doh)The kanji carved on the stone means to guide. I wear this when I teach as teaching is guiding.

Kanji Necklace (Luca)This is a kanji name necklace I created for my nephew Luca for his birthday.
|
Kanji Necklace (Son)This is a kanji name necklace I created for my wife with a kanji from her name carved on it.
