Happy Year of the Snake! The huge snow storm in the Northeast is now over. We are starting the new year with a sunny, lovely day.
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 February 10, 2013.
This is my wild grass calligraphy for the Chinese character, snake.
Chinese writing dates back to over 5000 years ago. Snake is a pictograph. The original oracle bone script is a rough drawing of the snake. It has evolved to the modern day character but you can still vaguely see the head on the left and the tail on the right.
