Calligraphy

The kanji below is the name, Hotei, for those who want to practice their calligraphy.

Sketch

This relatively simple sketch of Hotei is for practice.

Demonstration Painting

Most of the painting consists of senbyō line drawings using the tip of the brush. Some places use dry strokes. Hotei is a happy God, so be sure to give him a happy face.
