I would like to know what kinds and sizes of special Zen Calligraphy brushes you use and where you get them from. I also would like to know the kinds of sumi inks and papers you use and where you get them from as well.


The calligraphy paper size depends on what is needed. Zenshi, Hansetsu, a quarter Hansetsu. I usually use rather strong/hard brushes. The SUMI ink I use is middle strength. And for big size calligraphies I use rather rough paper. There is a shop in down town Okayama where I buy all needed materials.
