The first task I looked into was exploring the fluid strokes of Japanese Calligraphy and finding parts of the symbols that I could recreate through-out my own images and use similar strokes and the same fluidity in my own world.
Above I have looked into incorporating the lines I have practised with the calligraphy. I explored the simplest strokes (giraffe on the left) and more detailed work, pushing how many lines I can add to an image before it over complicates the piece (fish at the bottom)
Here I was doing some quick line-art using the techniques I had learnt in the lesson to create a very stylised ninja, using brush and ink.
