About SEICHO
Japanese Calligrapher / Designer
Seicho is a New York based Japanese calligraphy Artist. "Seicho" means quiet butterfly in Japanese. She started to play with a brush at the age of 6, and began to blossom her talent as a calligrapher around her time in college. She studied under Master Calligrapher Seifu Makino who is a well-known calligrapher in Kyoto, Japan, and that improved her skill even more. Her calligraphy works have won many prizes and have been exhibited all over Japan. In 1996, she became Master Calligrapher "Seicho". On the other side, she appeared in several films, TV shows, some Music Videos (including Jamie Foxx, Good Charlotte, etc.) and also on the cover of New York Magazine. Her latest work is the Japanese Whisky Label for SATO SHIKI WHISKY. She also does Japanese Tea Ceremony Demonstration.

Testimonials
“ If you have a need for custom calligraphy work, this is the place to be. Seicho is creative, patient and smart. I gave her a complicated custom order - a haiku with many characters-that turned into a major project. As it turned out, we collaborated on it together and it turned out much better than I had expected. She's a true artist, and she wanted to make the work perfect. She put in dozens of hours and a huge amount of energy and the end result succeeded brilliantly.“ - Jeff B, U.S.A
“ Seicho is an excellent calligrapher and was a joy to work with. She was patient with my many ideas and concepts and skillfully rendered them into lovely works of art. I had her help me with a logo, which turned out great, but she would be perfect for any art/calligraphy work! Highly recommended! “ - Chris H, Hong Kong
“ Seicho has a gift when it comes to calligraphy! She is exceptional! I will definitely hire again and I strongly recommend. “ - TAG COMICS Morakinyo A, U.S.A
“ The Shodo/ Shuji artwork looks absolutely stunning and even more wonderful in person than I originally envisioned. I’m at a loss for words. Not including the fact that you added those extra works to it as a extra, is just so kind of you. It truly radiates your thoughtfulness with my order and working diligently with me to spell the wordings and names properly and correctly. You went above and beyond. These pieces will go perfectly for my black/white minimalist aesthetic. You can tell, on each one with the ink, every stroke of careful precision. It just truly is, beautiful. And I love the fact that you put each one in its own slip case which adds a level of protection to them. These Shodō artworks have brought a level of peace and joy into my home here. And I thank you so much for them. It’s all wonderful.” - Dominic Q, U.S.A
“ I ordered this Ichi-Go Ichi-E calligraphy as a gift for a special friend to commemorate the one year anniversary of our meeting. It came in a beautifully wrapped package of golden wrapping paper and red strings, making it look very classy. My friend went into tears when she received it as the packaging and the calligraphy itself were very beautiful. Thank you Seicho for taking such a good care of this gift, even to the smallest details! Unfortunately I didn't get my friend to take a picture of the package before she opened it. I will definitely recommend you to my friends who need similar gifts in the future because your work is just so beautiful and you take very good care of everything, even down to the packaging.” - Herlina K., U.S.A
