I began learning calligraphy at the age of ten. I immediately fell in love with the feeling of artistic craftsmanship, the brush strokes, the majestic architecture and, most of all, what can be created with the power of words through calligraphy art. When I was given my first calligraphy book, I discovered the diverse font selection from which one can choose to portray the same letter in so many distinct ways, and that, if illustrated correctly, everyone could read these remarkable typefaces. I was fascinated by this, and it is this enchantment that drives my passion for practising these individual styles. I&#8217;ve discovered my own techniques along the way, where I&#8217;ve pushed the limits of words to create a compelling message within my images. With my artwork, the story unfolds only when you are submerged within the piece. It is crucial for me to work with topics everyone knows \u2013 themes that are easy to understand: human values, stories about life, or thematics that are self-evident. It is fundamental that my creations broach noteworthy subjects that are uniquely deserving of our appreciation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WEB<\/strong>: www.chrisvanweidmann.com<br><strong>Facebook<\/strong>: \/chrisvanweidmann<br><strong>Instagram<\/strong>: @chrisvanweidmann<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"http:\/\/artcontest.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/linette2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"21\" src=\"http:\/\/artcontest.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/linette2.jpg\" alt=\".......\" class=\"wp-image-1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artcontest.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/linette2.jpg 500w, https:\/\/artcontest.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/linette2-300x13.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Vote for this artwork!<\/strong>&nbsp;Follow Biancoscuro Art Contest on&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/artcontest.biancoscuro\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Facebook<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/biancoscuroartcontest\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Instagram<\/strong><\/a> then click <strong>like!<\/strong><br><strong>Vota questa opera!&nbsp;<\/strong>Segui Biancoscuro Art Contest su <strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/artcontest.biancoscuro\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a>&nbsp;e <\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/biancoscuroartcontest\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Instagram&nbsp;<\/strong><\/a>quindi clicca <strong>like!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"213\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/artcontest.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Weidmann_Passion-213x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artcontest.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Weidmann_Passion-213x300.jpg 213w, https:\/\/artcontest.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Weidmann_Passion-450x633.jpg 450w, https:\/\/artcontest.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Weidmann_Passion-600x844.jpg 600w, https:\/\/artcontest.biancoscuro.it\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Weidmann_Passion.jpg 710w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 213px) 100vw, 213px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Passions 2020 handwritten, ink on paper 80&#215;60 cm.
