these far and starlit shores

Random fun thing I've been doing recently: taking Chinese watercolor brush painting classes! I'd been meaning to try getting back into calligraphy anyway, but then a friend mentioned she was taking an online class and asked if anyone wanted to join her, and I figured, why not? It uses some of the same kinds of brushes and paper as calligraphy, so even though I'd only really done a tiny bit of art like this before (and really, not all that much calligraphy either, and it was so long ago) it felt at least a little familiar. It's been fun learning something so completely unlike the usual other things I do these days!
