That's beautiful. I too had a scroll go unused again thru no real fault of the Powers that Be. It was to be a prize for the Bear pit tourney at 12thnight... except there were only 2 or 3 fighters and they didn't do the bear pit.
I am trying to figure out how to erase the calligraphy. If nothing else, just the date!
But seriously, that's beautiful and definitely put it in a sa portfolio.
It will adorn my sample portfolio, it is better that they don't know there was an issue in the past. It isn't nice. But hay, at least now I have an actual sample of what I can do other than just photos. :)
The calligraphy took about 5.5 hours. It is actually written backwards. I started in the middle and wrote it one letter at a time backwards to make sure it all fit. I had to use a brush instead of a nib and pen because it kept leaving marks in the ink.
