Trying to practise calligraphy of those special characters. Do you know what’s the meaning of the words? These words are “在涅贵不淄,暧暧内含光”. It’s the Qin Dynasty text. We call it as 小篆. It’s my favorite motto which means "Even if you are in silt, you can still shine. " Happy Lunar New Year~~And I’m so happy since I’m gonna go home.

This looks great!

Lovely work! The small seal script really has such a different feel to it—almost otherworldly.

Is that little 二 looking thing on the lower right part of 暧 a repetition mark? I’m only familiar with Japanese where 々 is the norm (although to be honest I’m not sure if it’s used in calligraphy).
