What To Expect

In this workshop, I will not only teach you how to write beautifully, but also how to experience the joy of carving a handcrafted seal. You will create a design using your name with an engraving knife on a small stone. During this activity, your mind will relax, and you will experience healing through the slow analog, tactile sensibility of everyday life.
First, I show two ways to engrave the seal and demonstrate how to carve with a carving knife.
Next, I show the way to design the names and help to design according to syllable of name. You go for it and then cover with ink of Korean style and take a stamp. Once the engraving is over, you can choose an elegant case for your stone seal. When you return home, you'll enjoy looking at the stamp you carved and remembering your travels. I'll write down a message for you in K-calligraphy after you have stamped your seal on a postcard I prepare.
