“What I Saw” Hard-Pen Calligraphy by Zhang Haoming Jining Artist The ripples on the streamDescriptionThis hard pen calligraphy work was created by Zhang Haoming, 8 years old, from Beijing, China. The piece presents Yuan Meis poem What I Saw (Suo Jian), a vivid scene of pastoral life where a young boy on a buffalo suddenly sings, startling cicadas into silence. Written in regular script (Kaishu), the strokes are neat and balanced, showing the innocence and clarity of a young hand while also conveying the rhythm of classical poetry. Title:
