Tomoko will show you how to create several characters, and teach you the meaning and method for each Shodo. You will learn basic calligraphy skills, and practice writing simple Kanji or your favourite Japanese word. Perhaps you'll discover your passion for calligraphy! This class is popular for individuals and couples

Tomoko is a Japanese calligraphy artist based around Sydney.

Tomoko practiced calligraphy from the age of ten. Her calligraphy has been used in restaurants, accommodation, and on various products such as sake labels. 

Since moving to Australia, Tomoko has conducted calligraphy workshops in schools, galleries, and for private events, and in 2018 her calligraphy and sumi-e art were used in advertisements for Japan Airlines (JAL) and Opera Australia.

Tomoko’s great joy is to share Japanese culture through her passion for calligraphy and the beauty of the Japanese aesthetic. She loves talking to people about this unique art-form, so if you're curious about Japanese calligraphy (or Japanese culture in general), please feel free to ask her any questions!
