Chinese Caligraphy

Chinese Caligraphy is a famous event during Chinese New Year. It was started thousands years back in China, where every house will paste this "Dui Lian" at the side of the door as a celebration for the Chinese New Year. MMU Chinese Language Society(CLS) organize this event yearly. This year, I feel like writing back the caligraphy which I've actually learn for few years. So, I decided to take part in this competition. Well, since I've stop for many years, I can't 100% recall back what I've learnt. So, I just write it according to so called " FEELING" hehe.

Of course, my "Feeling" style can't get me the top 3 prizes in the competition. But I'm happy that I still can find back the passion of writing Chinese Caligraphy. Hope more people(event non-Chinese people) are interested in learning Chinese Caligraphy.

These are my 2 sets of "Dui Lian" which I wrote during the competition. Chinese Simplified and also Chinese Traditional wording.
