More than 300 photos for each hand show stroke sequences, pen position and the way characters take shape. Guidance also covers essential tools and materials, including pens, papers and inks, alongside the techniques needed to practise across traditional and modern styles. Suitable for beginners looking for a structured, workbook-led approach.
