Oracle bone script calligraphy is fun because you can be writing out a cool-sounding phrase and then you get to draw a cute little silkworm and then it’s back to writing.

A spring couplet by Pan Zhulan 潘主兰(1909--2001) written in oracle bone script calligraphy and the character for silkworm 蚕 is a cute little silkworm.
