"Harmony" calligraphy

The 3 basic brush strokes to paint bamboo can now be used for calligraphy; to create the Asian character for "Harmony"

Pronounced as variations on 'Ha' in the various Chinese languages, 'Hop' in Korean and 'Ai' in Japanese, this calligraphy is descended from a picture of a house, a home where harmony reigns.
