About me

My name is Christy Luo. I am 22 years old. I graduated from university in the July 2007. I became a Christian since I was 19 years old. Just then, I graduated from senior school and had a 3 months long vacation. My sister shared the gospel with me after she got to know this from a missionary who worked in her University. And she went to the bible study with me every week. The words of God attracted me. They answered all the questions I had in mind. So I believed, simply without any struggling. I used to think what will happen if people die, where we will go after… Once I lay on bed and came out an idea of have the answers by suicide, at that time I was only 7 years old. Praised the Lord, I didn’t. I didn’t want to apart from my family, because they were so dear to me.

In my family, there are 4 people: my dad, my mom, my sister and I. My dad is a taxi-driver. He is over 60 years old and has poor eyesight. So he can’t work as a driver for long. My mom doesn’t work because she has had a series of diseases: chronic nephritis, uremia, high blood pressure, etc. for over10 years. She needs to be well looked after. My sister is a worker in
Beijing, the capital in the North of China and far away from where we live the Southern city of Guangzhou, where I live. As Dad works often outside, and my sister does not live nearby, I always stay at home taking care of Mom.

Therefore my goal is to be able to stay at home
with my mom and still help my family financially.
I thank our gracious heavenly Father that He has
provided a way for this. Having studied the
art of Chinese calligraphy since I was 8 years
old, I am now proficient and can make
all kinds of scrolls and artwork using beautiful
and traditional Chinese. I love creating artwork.
Before I considered it a hobby, but special thanks
to my best friend from America, who gave me the
idea to start a business selling Christian scrolls with
Bible verses on them in Chinese after giving her one as a gift. In this way, I can spread the love of God to Christians who love China through the talent that God has given to me. In addition, I can earn an income at home, allowing me to take care of my mother.

Then this friend introduced me to her friends and some American adoption families, and advertised for me. So I have already filled many orders since September 2005. However, it’s not so convenient for people to make an order without having a look at the samples a way to contact me directly. So I have developed this web site with the help of brothers and sisters and through God’s grace. Hope it will give you a good idea of the products I can make so that you can select the kinds you like.

Shu Fa, Chinese calligraphy, is very interesting. Every character has its meaning. It can lead you into a story or teaching in the bible.

For example, “義”（righteousness）the upper part is one character “羊”（sheep）, the bottom one is “我”（me）. When the sheep is on the head, that means we put our Lord Christ Jesus first, it is righteous way we must do. If we take away the sheep, then only the “我”（me）left, it is a self-center way people usually do, but not a righteous way that pleased God. Or “船”（boat）, it can be divided into 3 part: “舟”（ark）, “八”（eight）, “口”（people）. It shows the story of : when God used the flood to destroy the world, He saved eight people of the house of Noah by the ark.

Generally speaking, there are 5 kinds of calligraphy, the ones I used to do Kai Shu & Li Shu are more orderly and easier to read and recognize. I think when people read the verse they can think of the wonders of God’s mighty hand. He gave wisdom to people that they are so creative that amazing character. And the people used these characters to express their love, thanksgiving to Him.

Shu Fa, Chinese calligraphy is used Mao Bi to write. They are different kinds big and small for different size of character used. Black ink is the necessarily in calligraphy.
