About Me

I am Mizuki from Japan. I was 10 years old when I first started studying and practicing calligraphy with my teacher. I have gained the certificate to teach calligraphy (Grade 5) when I graduated high school.

From my personal experiences, calligraphy has been a way of meditation and it has given me the moments to reflect on myself as what I have in mind are purely presented on the piece of paper. When I feel happy and positive, the words absorb the energy and look more alive.

My ultimate goal to keep practicing calligraphy is to spread its beauty to people around the world.

Hope you enjoy my collections!

About

Instagram

Black ink on washi paper captures the fleeting beauty of each moment. In Brescia, I painted 無常 (impermanence), teaching us to cherish change; 勇気 (courage), to face challenges; and 喜悦 (joy), born from mindful presence.

These photos reflect simplicity and depth — a philosophy of embracing life’s transient nature.

The calligraphy is exhibited and for sale until year-end at @finil_del_pret , inviting you to carry these words with you.

日々是好日
(hibi kore kōjitsu)

A Zen teaching:
“Each day, just as it is, is a good day.”

This phrase comes from Zen Buddhism. It’s a gentle but profound reminder to appreciate each day as it comes, no matter what it brings. In the Zen tradition, 日々是好日 is not about denying life’s difficulties, but about embracing every moment-joyful or challenging-as precious and meaningful.

I love how this saying encourages us to find beauty in the ordinary, to pause and notice the present, and to accept life just as it is. The brushwork in this piece is intentionally bold and spontaneous, reflecting the spirit of Zen: simple, direct, and alive.

Hanging a scroll like this in a tea room or living space invites mindfulness and gratitude into daily life. It’s a message I hope will inspire you wherever you are:

Even in the most ordinary moments, there is something good to be found.

Celebrating the quiet wisdom of #日々是好日 through #japanesecalligraphy and #zenart, embracing #mindfulness, #wabisabi, and the beauty of #everydaymoments in #artwithmeaning and #japaneseculture

🖌️Custom calligraphy: where your story becomes art

Every commission starts with a conversation – about memories, dreams, or the perfect gift that words alone can’t hold.

This recent commission reminded me why I love transforming personal stories into timeless pieces.

To anyone dreaming up a special gift (for someone else or your own soul):

Let’s turn your words into heirloom art.
DM me ‘custom’ and let’s start the conversation🖋️💌

Thank you for the request @anthings 🫶🏻

#japanesecalligraphy #shodo #customart #artdesigns #japandi

My hands were a mess, but my heart was full🫶🏻❤️ Teaching calligraphy under the festival lights, sharing laughs, and seeing faces light up as they held their custom treasures – moments like these remind me why art connects us all. Until next time, @japanfestival_gr 🌸

Whenever I teach my calligraphy workshop, I come with some knowledge and experience, but honestly, I always end up learning something new from my students.

The letters they write show so much more than just their handwriting—they reveal their mood, their personality, and where their mind is at that moment.
I love watching how focused they become, how much of themselves they put into each stroke. You can really see on the paper how present they are, how they surrender to the moment.

This time, the workshop was held in @engallery_shop, where @zoeantonaki’s beautiful collection of ceramics from different artists created such a unique and inspiring atmosphere—it made the whole experience even more special.

It’s a quiet kind of magic, and it reminds me that teaching is never just about sharing what I know—it’s about discovering together, one letter at a time.

十年一剣: Ten years to forge one sword

In martial arts, this phrase is a mantra—a reminder that true mastery isn’t born in a day. It’s forged in the fire of discipline, shaped by the hammer of perseverance, and tempered by the patience of years.

When I first picked up the brush, I didn’t understand the weight of these characters. But as I practiced, as I poured hours into perfecting each stroke, I began to see the parallels. Calligraphy, like martial arts, is a discipline of the mind and body. It’s about focus, precision, and the quiet strength that comes from repetition.

This piece, “十年一剣,” is my homage to that philosophy. The bold lines of the kanji are like the strikes of a master—controlled, deliberate, and full of intention. The empty space around them is the stillness of the dojo, the silence where growth happens.

To anyone on their own path of mastery, whether in martial arts, art, or life: remember, greatness isn’t rushed. It’s built stroke by stroke, year by year.

Your sword is waiting. Keep forging ⚔️✨

“吾唯足知” (われただたるをしる, waretadataruwoshiru) is a profound Japanese expression meaning “I am content with what I am (have)” or “Rich is the person who is content with what he is”. This four-character idiom embodies the wisdom of contentment and self-awareness.

In this calligraphy, each kanji shares the 口 (mouth) stroke, symbolizing unity and connection. Just as these characters are linked, so are we to the wisdom of contentment:
• 吾 (われ): I, myself
• 唯 (ただ): only, merely
• 足 (たる): sufficient, enough
• 知 (しる): to know, to understand

Together, they remind us to find fulfillment in what we already have. The shared 口 stroke ties this message together, reflecting how gratitude and self-awareness are universal truths.

Let this art inspire you to pause, reflect, and embrace the beauty of “enough.”

Behind the scene of bringing words to life 🖌️

The beauty of creation lies not just in the final masterpiece, but in the moments that shape it. Every brushstroke, every letter, and every decision is a part of the journey. Embracing the process allows us to find joy in the imperfections, learn from the mistakes, and appreciate the transformation from blank to beautiful. It’s a reminder that the true artistry is in the journey itself, not just the destination.

🖌️Daily practice - Dong Qichang

董其昌　「邠風図詩巻」

Dong Qichang was a scholar of the 17th year of the Wanli era (1589). He was a master of poetry, calligraphy, and painting, and also had a deep knowledge of calligraphy and painting, and was a leader of the calligraphy and painting circles at the end of the Ming dynasty, which greatly influenced later generations. This work, written at the age of 67, is a poem he composed in running cursive script inspired by a painting by Zhao Meng-fu in the Shijing (Poetry Sutra), on colored paper with cloud patterns.

🖌️Channeling your energy into art is like turning chaos into creation

Imagine an artist who pours their heart and soul into every brushstroke. Each piece they create is a manifestation of their deepest emotions and thoughts. Despite the limited recognition, the artist continues to channel all their energy into their work, knowing that true art comes from a place of passion and dedication.

One day, a passerby stumbles upon the artist’s studio and is captivated by the raw emotion and energy emanating from the canvases. They share the artist’s story and work with a broader audience, and soon, people from all over come to experience the art that speaks so deeply to the human condition.

The energy we invest in our art is never wasted. Every moment spent creating, every bit of passion poured into our work, builds a foundation for something greater. Even if recognition doesn’t come immediately, the act of creating with intention and love is a reward in itself.

Use your energy to fuel your creativity. Let your art be an extension of your spirit, a testament to your journey. When you invest your true self into your work, it resonates with others in profound ways. Trust that your dedication will one day be acknowledged by those who can see the beauty and effort behind every piece.

Keep creating with passion, and know that your energy is a powerful force that can transform your art and touch the lives of others.

Trust the process ❤️

🖌️Behind the scenes of every creative process…

I heard the story of a violinist who played for 45 minutes in a New York subway. A handful of people stopped, a couple clapped, and the violinist raised about $30 in tips.

No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the best musicians in the world. In that subway, Joshua played one of the most intricate pieces ever written with a violin worth $3.5 million dollars.

Two days before he played in the subway, Joshua Bell sold out a Boston theatre, with seats averaging about $100 each.

This experiment proved that the extraordinary in an ordinary environment does not shine and is so often overlooked and undervalued❤️‍🩹

There are brilliantly talented people everywhere who aren’t receiving the recognition and reward they deserve. But once they arm themselves with value and confidence and remove themselves from an environment that isn’t serving them, they thrive and grow🍀

Your gut is telling you something. Listen to it if it’s telling you where you are isn’t enough! Go where you are appreciated and valued.

Know Your Worth❤️

🖌️A Seal of Completion

The “artist’s seal” or “落款印” is like a final flourish —an imprint pressed by the creator on calligraphy or artwork to signify its completion💮

While not mandatory, stamping the artist’s seal tightens the piece, enhancing its overall balance and lifting its finish to new heights.

Most importantly, it elevates the artist’s own sense of accomplishment and satisfaction 🎨✨

Their dojo stands as the exclusive hub in Greece for mastering Tenshinryu Hyoho (天心流兵法) 🥋⚔️

👼Art Gifts for Newborn Angels

'啟' (Kai - Open-minded)
Washi, 33 x 24cm

In Japan, it is customary to write the names of newborn babies using a calligraphy brush and display them on the wall. I recently had the privilege of creating a unique piece for a beautiful couple's baby 💫❤️

I wish you an abundance of laughter, countless snuggles, and a lifetime of cherished memories with your little angel👼💝

🖌️Beautiful Art Gifts Inspired by Memorable Places

'広瀬川' (Hirosegawa, Sendai, Japan).
Washi, 33 x 24cm

"First, we have to understand ourselves a little better and know how truly important we are—to those around us and to the world at large. Without building true self-esteem from the inside out, creating a true love of ourselves, we are limited in what we do.”
