The Chinese writing brush (毛笔) is more than just a tool — it’s a symbol of cultural refinement, artistic discipline, and philosophical balance. With over 2,000 years of history, the 毛笔 has been used to craft poetry, philosophy, and visual masterpieces in the flowing art of Chinese calligraphy.
In New Zealand, there’s a growing appreciation for East Asian arts and crafts, and the 毛笔 is becoming a favourite among Kiwi artists, calligraphy students, educators, and cultural enthusiasts. From Auckland’s Chinese cultural centres to art schools in Wellington and Dunedin, traditional brush techniques are being taught, exhibited, and practiced as part of a broader exploration of identity, mindfulness, and intercultural creativity.
The 毛笔 is valued not only for its historical importance but also for the meditative and expressive qualities it brings to writing and painting. Many New Zealanders are discovering how using a brush — instead of a pen — connects them to a slower, more intentional creative process, often associated with Zen thinking, Tai Chi philosophy, and mindful learning.
Calligraphy and brush painting are also featured in Lunar New Year festivals, Asian heritage weeks, and bilingual education initiatives around Aotearoa, where the brush becomes a bridge between cultures. Whether you're a seasoned ink artist or a curious beginner, learning the art of the Chinese writing brush in New Zealand can be both a deeply personal and culturally rich experience.

I’ve seen the Maybelline Colossal Bubble Mascara all over social media, so I had to test it on short lashes to see if it actually delivers the volume everyone’s talking about.
No filters, no lash curler tricks — just real results. Does it lift, separate, and hold, or is it just another overhyped launch? Let’s find out.
