Excellent paper quality
As someone who has used various Xuan papers, this set holds ink well without bleeding too much. The cardstock covers protect the pages nicely. A must-have for adult learners.

Beautiful designs
The flower and bird sketches are intricate and beautiful. It makes practicing calligraphy and painting feel less like a chore and more like an art session. Love the spiral binding.

Relaxing and educational
Bought this for stress relief and ended up learning a new skill. The instructions implied in the drafts are intuitive. The soft brushes work perfectly with the provided paper.

Good for practice
The line drawings are clear and easy to trace. It helped me improve my steady hand significantly. Would give 5 stars if there were a few more landscape examples included.

Great value set
The tracing sheets are very helpful for beginners like me. The included brushes are soft and decent quality, though I might upgrade them later. Highly recommend for starting out.

Perfect for learning brush control
I have been wanting to learn Gongbi painting for years. This book provides excellent drafts that help you understand the flow of the brush. The Xuan paper quality is surprisingly good for the price.
Q: Can I use my own brushes instead of the ones included?
A: Absolutely! The included brushes are great for getting started, but the paper works wonderfully with any traditional Chinese calligraphy or Gongbi brushes you already own.
Q: Are the pages perforated for easy removal after finishing a piece?
A: The pages are not perforated to ensure stability while painting, but the spiral binding allows the book to lay completely flat, and pages can be carefully removed with scissors if desired.
Q: Does this book include instructions on how to mix colors?
A: This set focuses primarily on line drawing, tracing, and brush control techniques using black ink. While it does not include a color mixing guide, the drafts are perfect for practicing structure before adding color.
Q: What is the approximate size of the drawing area on each page?
A: Each page is adult-sized, roughly equivalent to A4 dimensions, providing ample space for detailed flower-and-bird sketches and calligraphy practice.
Q: Is the paper thick enough to prevent bleed-through with liquid ink?
A: Yes, the Xuan paper selected for this set is treated to handle standard sumi ink and light watercolor washes without significant bleed-through, making it ideal for practice.
