Colored pencils are excellent for detailed patterns on the inkwell and ink stone, allowing for precise application. Fine-tip markers or gel pens can add crispness to the character and small decorative elements. Watercolors can create beautiful, soft washes for the paper background or a traditional ink-wash effect on the character itself.
Start with the large character using a single color for impact. Use light pressure for the background elements. Focus on one tool at a time to avoid feeling overwhelmed. Take breaks to appreciate your progress.
Experiment with gradients on the character to simulate ink wash effects. Use fine-tipped pens for intricate details on the inkwell and ink stone patterns. Apply subtle shading to the brushes for realism. Consider negative space coloring around the character for a dramatic effect.

Two calligraphy brushes are positioned above the paper, with one brush tip just touching the character, as if in the act of writing. To the left, an ornate, decorative inkwell holds a small pool of dark ink. To the right, a rectangular inkstone is covered with intricate, swirling patterns. Two small, irregularly shaped rocks are placed next to the inkstone.
