Gary,
Here are photos of the replacements, attached, in square seal script that you sent me for the words "wing chun." They are good and I am happy. Can you supply details of why they are a bit different other than the different color materials I ordered?

Thanks,

Keith Sonnenberg

Gary, Yes, it looked like the ancient seal script scroll that I previously received and I liked it very much. It is just that I have that style. I am attaching that one for comparison. I am thinking about doing another t-shirt with the square seal style. Keith PS- Correction, the attachment is a "po...

Gary,
Here are photos of the two scrolls. Thanks a lot for your consideration.

Keith

On my recent order (# 14759 ) which I just received today, I got the Ancient Seal Script instead of the Square Seal Script that I ordered on both of my scrolls. I previously ordered Ancient Seal Script and I am just trying to get a variety of calligraphy styles for the words Wing Chun. Please tell m...

Gary,
Here is the first shirt I did from Xing An-Ping's calligraphy!

Gary, These new scrolls are just great! I ordered the x-small scrolls which work better for smaller walls and areas. These were Plain Mocha and Tan paper with flecks. I had the words Wing Tsun on one and Chi Sau on the other. They have the look of a very old scroll and look fantastic. Xing An-Ping d...

Wow is right. There is certainly a lot of nonsense out there. Thank you.

Keith

I know I suggested it and I am a WingTsun kung fu practitioner. However you say that "Push Hands" is a practice within the art of Wing Chun. It is actually a practice within the art of Tai Chi, not WingTsun. I said so and I merely thought it would be popular since millions and millions of Tai Chi pe...

I noticed that I cannot access the Chinese Calligraphy - Chinese Zodiac scrolls category for quite some time now.

Thank you,

Keith Sonnenberg

Gary, Thank you for adding chi sau to the selections for martial arts words and phrases. I am having a great deal of fun framing some of the portraits and art pieces that I got from you! It might be a while before I can order another scroll or art piece. I couldn't wait during January (just had to g...

I absolutely love these scrolls I have been ordering. Your web site is a window into the Chinese culture. You said that a request i had was a catalyst into some kind of addition to your business. Your business has been a catalyst into me considering leaning Chinese as a language.

Keith

Gary,
I tried to "proceed to check" and "PayPal" on your web site for a new order and could not complete the order. I got an "error" on the next page. Thanks.

Update: I tried later in the day and the site worked fine. Looks like you might have made some changes. Thanks!

Keith

Gary, Can you add the words Chi Sau to the list of martial arts phrases? This might look good next to another scroll that says "Wing Chun" or Wing Tsun. It is the term that Wing Chun uses to describe this drill. Chi Sau is the Wing Tsun/chun term for the "sticky hands" drill to develop contact skill...

Gary,
This "calligraphy with the feeling of the subject" is something I had only heard in passing once or twice before. Interesting and good to know if I want that in the future and one more dimension to consider.

Keith

Gary, OK, this is good information. You are right. I want a well defined calligraphy with a brush stroke tail or some indication that it is hand done on many strokes. It is good to know that I can send a photo and have it done with that style. Now the artist would know what I am looking for! Great! ...

Actually the first single character Tiger portrait in Running was with my earlier order with the Wing Tsun Fist scroll.

Keith

Gary, The new scrolls are in fine shape and I like the quality. I do have a question though, about the calligraphy style. I had two scrolls done on the order, the same size and length (matched), one that says "Wing Tsun Kung Fu" and the other that is the four character Chinese words for "Perseveranc...

Gary,
Thank you again for the re-do of the scroll AND the files. What do I owe you for the files?

Keith

Gary,
If you start offering a sized "small" scroll (about 2/3 the size of this big scroll I just got), there is a place on the wall at the Scottsdale Martial Arts Center for two of that size.

Keith

Gary, I received the scroll "Wing Tsun Fist" and the "Tiger" portrait today. I would like the redo on the scroll that you offered . I think it will be worth the wait. There is a smudge right above the character at the top as well as in the corner and it shows up in the light I have at home quit a bi...

Gary,
Thanks. I anxiously wait for its arrival!

Keith

Gary, Can you tell me what is wrong with it? If I know what it is, maybe I can tell you whether I want to look at it or if I would rather have it re-done without you having to ship it to me. One way or another, it is a design I want. A refund is good (if the scroll is not good somehow) but I still w...

Gary, I have four scrolls and one portrait on this order, 11506. I really only need two of the scrolls photographed (the one's with the pure white rice paper) but if your minimum is three for $15 to make it worthwhile, I have no problem with that. Its a great courtesy and service. A previous order t...

Gary, When my order # 11506 comes in, can you take a high resolution photo of each of two of the scrolls? The order has four scrolls and one portrait. I would like photos taken of the two that are on pure white rice paper. I want to record the calligraphy for use use primarily on t-shirts but would ...

Yes. As I replaced the items in my shopping cart with new items, I saw it come up as medium/regular in the first window and Regular in the final window. I also momentarily noticed that you don't have any "small" scrolls. Its nice to know that more came of my questions and order than just another sal...
