First, the center of gravity is stable, wrong.
The stable center of gravity is the most fundamental rule of calligraphy. Because running script is dynamic, it can't keep the structure stable like regular script, official script and seal script, but keep the center of gravity stable in a state of relative movement, just like a person leaning forward without falling down when running.
There are differences in running script styles. The so-called "upright" people, that is, dignified and straight body posture, symmetrical density and mutual care, the length and density of stippling are restricted by "law"; The so-called "couch potato" is lean, ups and downs, criss-crossing, full of interest, giving people a sense of boldness. The conclusion of the running script should be flat or flat, that is, "the potential seems strange, but anyway."
Second, opening and closing expansion, appropriate density
"Opening and closing" and "density" are the methods of laying white between stippling and stippling in the structure of running script. "Greenery Pavilion Collection" says: "Words are dense, dense and tight, sparse and vivid, static and moving, cold and hot, and the opportunity of life and death has nothing to do with human feelings, but with heaven." Therefore, if the density is appropriate, the words will be tied up and ironed, and the structure will be expressed by the method of opening and closing the pen, such as the length and thickness.
Third, it changes with the shape, and the homonym is different.
Running script is expensive and changeable. There are two ways to change, one is to change the pen shape, and the other is to change the font. These changes are inseparable from the basic law of comparison and unity, and from the basic law of "seeking differences in similarities and seeking common ground in differences"
When the same word or words with similar glyphs appear at the same time, the form changes with the trend and there is no repetition, which is homonym; However, some glyphs are very different, which are born according to the situation, ever-changing, inseparable from statutes, unnatural and in line with emotional appeal, which is to seek common ground in differences. Structural changes should be "from the heart without exceeding the moment."
Fourth, the radical is flexible, and the old woman is young.
Radicals are widely used in the structure of running script, and whether they are used properly is related to the aesthetic feeling of words. The radical of running script, which comes from regular script and cursive script, is very flexible. It can be written more formally or casually, or it can be written longer, shorter, wider and narrower, and it should be changed at will according to the requirements of font or the whole text.
Generally speaking, words with left and right structures should be written alternately, just like "an old woman beat her little", which is both comparative and harmonious, or low left and high right, or low right and high left, or small left and big right, so as to be vivid. The most taboo is that the left and right sides are almost the same, and they are tied neatly. As Bao said, "the size is far from each other, like an old woman marrying a child."
Five, clutch avoidance, size change
In the running script structure, if a word is composed of left, right and upper parts, then the left, right and upper parts should become a whole, or a tangible Lian Bi can be formed by dragging, or an invisible brushwork continuity can be produced by picking out the front of the shackle. In short, there must be avoidance and concession, and there must be a series of events so that backward people can rely on them and those who are far away can combine.
Sixth, avoid the same shape and don't repeat it.
The biggest feature of running script is vividness and naturalness, and keeping it unchanged is the most taboo. Many Chinese characters are similar or similar in shape. These similar characters are superior only when their structures are written in the same but different ways.
Seven, the change of strokes, coordination and harmony
In short, the same strokes must be changed, long or short, thick or thin, or inclined up and down, so as to coordinate with each other. If three horizontal lines are written like three chopsticks and three strong lines are drawn like poles, then the structural modeling of the characters will appear dull, monotonous and repetitive, and there is no artistry and interest at all.
Eight, the rational use of "points" is just right.
Running script is ever-changing, colorful and diverse, and it is also the finishing touch in structure. Points in words can be roughly divided into three categories: one is the point of the structure of the word itself; The second is the point derived from the change of running script font; Third, the original structure has no points, but points are added to decorate and balance the structure.
Nine, not weird, strive for nature
In order to achieve colorful effects, exaggerated and distorted artistic techniques are often used. However, this method must have courage and insight. Some people write running scripts, and they are meticulous and follow the rules all their lives. If you dare not cross the line, you will have no courage if you are bound by statutes. Some people write running scripts, blindly curious and strangely presented. This is ignorance and can't be careless.
