Madara– Author –
My name is MADARA and I am a Shodo artist. I use a special technique that mixes the Japanese tradition of 'shodo' (Japanese traditional calligraphy) and 'graphotherapy' (writing with a wish for good luck).We turn the names of our customers overseas into beautiful Japanese letters, writing them carefully and with feeling one by one, and then print the calligraphy on our products. We want to share the beauty of traditional Japanese culture with people everywhere.We're excited to work with you!
