SHODO is the art of expressing characters with a flourish, scribing a line that extends from the first touch of brush to paper, to the departure of the brush from the completed piece. Sometimes the stroke is heavy, sometimes it is light. At times, it sweeps an arc, at others it takes dramatic turns. And where the brush floats from the plane of the paper to fall again at another location, the unbroken line remains in the eye of the beholder.
