Changes in lightness and weight: Cursive calligraphy strokes should have some changes, but blindly heavy strokes will produce rigidity and lack of spirit, and blindly lightness will produce hollowness and lightness, but there must be a degree of lightness and weight, otherwise it will only increase evil. Give.
