Description
Happy Year of the Horse!
2014 is the Year of the Horse. The Chinese calendar is a lunisolar calendar, and the start of the year is based on the cycles of the moon, and this year it falls on Friday, January 31, 2014.
Years of the Horse are: 1918, 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990 and 2002 and 2014.
This is my wild grass calligraphy for the Chinese character, horse.
Chinese writing dates back to over 5000 years ago. Horse is a pictograph. The original oracle bone script is a rough drawing of the horse. It has evolved to the modern day character 馬 but you can still vaguely see in my calligraphy the shape of a galloping horse.
