恵 megumi Grace

恵 is grace in the sense of a blessing, such as the grace of God. Dictionaries write the word both ways, 恵 and 恵み, and this design writes the character alone. A welcome rain after a long dry spell is 恵みの雨, a rain of grace. For grace as in graceful movement, Japanese uses 優雅 (yūga).

Each design is Master Japanese Calligrapher Eri Takase's hand-brushed calligraphy of the word or phrase on this page, delivered as a PDF you can print. Every PDF includes the line art, so a tattoo artist or a craftsperson can work from the outline as well as the brushed image. The line art prints sharp at any size. The brushed image is sized to print at the dimensions shown on the PDF, so for a larger piece, work from the line art.

Your purchase includes a personal-use license: use the design as a tattoo reference, frame it, engrave it, print it for yourself, or make it into a gift. For more information see Licensing, which also covers commercial-use options that may be purchased separately.

Your PDF is available for download the moment your order completes, and a copy is attached to your emailed receipt.

If you need your design again later, ask us for it and we will send it.
