Introduction Carved with precision and care, our "Ink Soul" mood seal bears the powerful characters "墨魂" (Mò Hún). This seal is a tribute to the medium that defines our art form. It encapsulates the deep, inseparable bond between the painter’s spirit and the ink that flows from their brush.
Meaning & Significance The characters "墨魂" collectively convey the idea of "Ink Soul."
Mò (墨): Ink—the fundamental element of Chinese brush painting and Sumi-e.
Hún (魂): Soul, Spirit, or Mood.
This mood seal serves as a declaration of your artistic identity. In our tradition, we believe that ink carries the artist's "Qi" (energy) onto the paper. Stamping this seal signifies that your artwork is not merely surface-level decoration, but a manifestation of your inner spirit captured through the "five colors of ink." It is perfect for works where you feel you have truly poured your emotions onto the paper.
