Bobby's calligraphy
Bobby is an Australian whom my friend is helping as a member of the international volunteers.
He came to Japan about two years ago and began to practice calligraphy about a year ago as one of his hobbies.
His teacher is a very fine calligrapher and the teacher's master is a very famous calligrapher ' Seikaku Takagi' who won 'the Cultural award ' in 2006.
Thanks to his teacher's guide and his effort, he is making good progress.
By the way, the 25th national cultural festival is being held in Okayama prefecture now and there are various events in many parts of this prefecture.
Bobby's work was selected as one of the fine works and is being exhibited at the Okayama Tenjinyama Plaza now.
He is the only foreigner whose work was selected as fine art.
After appreciating many works by many people, we enjoyed lunch together and had a very good time.
