The opportunities to be exposed in the medium increase, and the question said like this in the occasion comes out. Calligraphy and commercial calligraphy don't change in writing both characters by using the writing brush. A feeling toward the production and an environment are the same, too. If one is wrong, there is a client (request person) in the commercial calligraphy.It is this work that a writing brush character turns faithfully "the image which a client takes out" .

The writing brush character which is unsuitable for one's mind is adopted, and it sometimes touches the eyes of the people in the town . It is the calligraphy of the commercial purpose persistently. for example, shop logo, menu, magazine title, package. Cross a specification to the large area.

And, if there is an experience of learning calligraphy, it is not the work that a request comes soon. Production , research is important there to answer multiple seed multiple states of requests. So, it is calligraphy to become a nucleus. You must learn the study of the classic widely to write a creative character, design like character. The shape of the character, characteristics aren't known, and it does, and it isn't connected with the creative character. Though it is the same to write an errand character, calligraphy changes a writing brush to a request person is not there, too.

A calligraphy work as the art that there is me as a lifework is not the thing which made a letter the subject. The reason is because "the meaning" that a letter lasts strongly steps forward. I assume a letter the subject, and the work which developed from creation delicately leaves form of a letter, and an author is conscious of a letter. There were a lot of writers for it, too, but I prayed you that an element to think about with a head wanted to take it away with my work as much as possible and arrived at such a technique.

A sign, a lingering sound, the five senses, sex appeal want to make a work to feel a sense thing. It cannot advance only by the calligraphy that I studied easily so far.
