Description: I think I’m going to upload some cool stuff before I get to the easy things. Here I will be submitting a tutorial on something I never made or drew before as a lesson. Here you will be learning "how to draw kanji", step by step. The word I chose to make in this writing form is the word ‘LOVE’. What is kanji exactly? Well from what I understand and this is coming from the mouth of my brother, kanji is a Japanese writing system that was brought over to Japan from Chinese articles that where imported from China. Before kanji was implemented with Japanese culture, there was no written form of the Japanese language. Over the years after kanji had been the main form of writing, another logogram started to be used called kanbun. Now, kanbun was a combination of Chinese text mixed with diacritical strokes which enabled the Japanese to read Chinese sentences in their own way or form. I for one would never understand how to read such interesting text written in the format of the Chinese and Japanese language. Instead I taught myself how to draw the words and so today you too will learn the ins and outs to making kanji love too. I hope you have fun, remember to rate, comment, and fav any or all of the lessons you come across as you spend your days on Dragoart.com
