When Xue Yi was a child, at a family gathering, her aunt Zhu Fan, who was taught calligraphy, accidentally noticed that she imitated her aunt and drew stroke by stroke on paper with a brush, so the journey of calligraphy enlightenment began. My aunt thought she had a little talent, so she became her enlightenment teacher on the road to calligraphy. It is very inconvenient to take a taxi from the town where Xue Yi lives to her aunt's urban area for about an hour, but she insists on going there once or twice a week, so Xue Yi is deeply grateful to her parents for their unwavering support and cultivation on the road of learning calligraphy.

After elementary school, due to the gradual increase in Xue Yi's schoolwork, it was inconvenient to go to the city, so he found a famous calligraphy teacher in the local town, Mr. Shiraishi. Under the strict teaching of two teachers, her calligraphy foundation is very solid. She chose to major in Chinese painting during her university years and was fortunate to be a student of Professor Miao Xiaojun, and under the guidance of her tutor for many years, she had a deeper understanding of the integration of Chinese painting and calligraphy.
After graduating, she became a university teacher, and her interest was more focused on combining this traditional art with modern cultural creativity. He led the students to create a series of calligraphy works, from flat to three-dimensional, from paper to trying to create on different materials, etc., reinterpreting traditional calligraphy from the perspective of visual communication with popular elements and young people's perspectives.
