When I practise calligraphy, I like to write what I want to write. These are usually characters that come into my mind at that point in time, or phrases/poems that I like. Today, I decided to use the characters for horse 馬 and eagle 鵰.
鵰 refers to a broad family of eagle species, but I like this word because it is used in the wuxia novel 神鵰侠侣, or The Return of the Condor Heroes.
I used a goat hair brush on old paper (slightly brown). The calligraphy seal was affixed using 仿古 color seal paste to give an overall oldish look.
