Close up view of the artwork mounted to this silk brocade wall scroll
If you practice the ancient art of Chinese martial arts and have the "skill" level known as Kung Fu (or Gong Fu), this is the wall scroll for you.
This is painted by hand on handmade paper that has some small fibers, speckles, and/or artifacts that are a testament to its handmade nature.
The calligraphy was done using black Chinese ink on xuan paper (known incorrectly in the west as "rice paper"). The raw artwork was then taken to our Wall Scroll Workshop where it was laminated to more sheets of xuan paper, and built into a beautiful portrait with silk brocade border.
This calligraphy was created by Li Dan-Qing of Beijing. He's an older gentleman who has been involved with the art community of China, all of his life. Now in retirement, he creates calligraphy for us for sort of "hobby income".
