[Chinese Culture Introduction]
Seal Script / 篆书
traditional Chinese: 篆書; simplified Chinese:篆书; pinyin: zhuànshū
Seal script is an ancient style of writing Chinese characters that was common throughout the latter half of the 1st millennium BC. It evolved
organically out of the Zhou dynasty bronze script. The Qin variant of seal script eventually became the standard, and was adopted as the formal script for all of China during the ' Qin dynasty '秦朝. It was still widely used for decorative engraving and seals (name chops, or signets) in the
' Han dynasty '汉朝. The literal translation of the Chinese name for ' seal script ' 篆書 (zhuànshū), is decorative engraving script, a name coined during the Han dynasty, which reflects the then-reduced role of the script for the writing of ceremonial inscriptions.

Freehand Brush Work /写意画
traditional Chinese: 寫意; simplified Chinese: 写意; pinyin: Xiěyì
Freehand brush work is a genre of Chinese traditional painting which includes poem, calligraphy, painting, and seal. Xieyi literally means "writing ideas".[1] It was formed in a long period of artistic activities and promoted by the literati. The freehand brush work emphasizes the semblance in the spiritual aspect. This kind of artwork does not chase for the physical similarity and the cooperation of reality. And it might be the essence of freehand brush work that it mostly grasps the most obvious or essential spiritual characteristics.
