Bamboo and "Chinese" Writing

In class, we learned techniques to paint bamboo on rice paper. I like how mine turned out once I got the hang of it- but I had a couple that were disastrous- mainly because there was a shortage of black paint. But it was fun to learn different ways to handle a paintbrush, and even more fun, I think to design the Chinese- like writing out of English letters. It took me a long time arrange 7 letters then decide on which one I liked best, but it was worth it- I really like it! I would definitely use this in a classroom.
