MangaHelpers Summer Art Contest: Calligraphy
​

Hello and welcome to the second seasonal art contest for this year! Are you already impatient with the Summer Art Contest? The theme is Calligraphy. This time, the submitted art pieces are somewhat freestyle, meaning you can combine your photograph (as the background) and calligraphy, or you calligraph and take a picture of it, or even you just take a picture of someone's calligraphy.

Category: Photography/Drawing
Theme: Calligraphy

Calligraphy Contest - "Petal" by DiMaria Yesta


Required apps: Prisma, Paint, Sketchbook
Sites: ezgif, lunapic

Amateur Japanese calligraphy by me :p The background pic is taken by me (ASUS ZenFone 6) and filtered via Prisma. The calligraphy and the red stamp were made with Sketchbook. The calligraphy is "花びら" (hanabira) meaning "petal".
