Introduction to Yu Maoyang

Yu Maoyang was born in Dong'e, Shandong Province in 1955. I fell in love with calligraphy when I was 6 years old. My family was poor, and when I was 11 years old, I was involved in one of the three major tragedies in my life - the death of my father. I loved calligraphy when I was in elementary and middle school, but during the ten years of turmoil, like many of my peers, I was unable to get more learning opportunities. Because of his poor family, he experienced the hardships of life too early. He did all the farm work such as pulling carts, fertilizing, plowing and sowing, pulling weeds and hoeing, building canals and digging rivers. However, his obsession with the art of calligraphy has never stopped. Through learning. At that time, the only copy of "Copybook for Learning the Structure of Willow Frames" at home became Mr. Yu's treasure at that time.
