I did the calligraphy, and was the navigator for this one.

The Brush is the Sword of the Mind is a monthly column I write for the Budo Magazine Gekkan Hiden 月刊秘伝. Each month I feature the calligraphy of a different Samurai from history, taking a close look at the character of the man behind the Brush. The series is published in the magazine each month in Japanese, with an online video on Webhiden.jp, and an English language version with video on budojapan.com. The articles will be uploaded here as the series grows.
