Shodo - Clean up after

[Lucas Phillip]

Hello,

I was wandering if anyone could teach me, or tell me a place where i can learn how to clean everything after i've done practicing shodo... for exemple, i want to know if i wash the "fude" with water and just leave it or if there's anything especial i have to do...

Thanks,
Lucas

As far as I know, you just wash everthing off with water and let it dry.

That's the part I used to dislike about "shodou", clean-up.

Black ink can be very messy and hard to get them off if you get stains. It hardens as it dries even in a little tray where you mix the ink with water. You should wash the brush very gently with slightly warm water, re-shape it before it is completely dry.
