Nowadays, running script calligraphy is more and more loved by people and becomes the most popular calligraphy font, which shows its extraordinary charm! So how to practice running script calligraphy? Running script calligraphy is unique because of its soft and popular lines, so it is widely used now. Through nearly two years of calligraphy practice, talk about my own experience and encourage everyone. Master the following points:
First, get rid of the rule of regular script.
When practicing regular script, I told you to hide the brushstroke, there should be changes in lifting and pressing at the turning point, first complete the ticked strokes, pick them out, and so on. These essentials should be tried to get rid of and forget when writing running script. How to practice running script calligraphy? For example, comparing regular script to martial arts routines, then running script is Sanda, and you can't start from scratch for every move and every style, but pay attention to fluency. Hard-pen running script advocates smooth writing and standard fonts, which is a good running script.
Second, serious plagiarism.
To learn running script well, we must go through special copying training and master its brushwork and writing rules. Find yourself a good copybook when copying. Zhao Mengfu's Preface to the Imperial Decree is a good copybook, which can be used to practice calligraphy with brush or reduced to practice calligraphy with hard pen. Hard-pen calligraphers such as Pang Zhonghua and Qian Peiyun can write posts temporarily. Practicing both brush and hard pen calligraphy is very beneficial to learning running script calligraphy and can complement each other. The brush calligraphy is carefully carved, and the hard pen calligraphy is repeatedly pondered, from big to small, and then from small to big, which is very conducive to strengthening the understanding of calligraphy learning.
Third, read the post.
There are only two ways to practice calligraphy: temporary posting and post reading, and it is particularly important to practice calligraphy and post reading. Reading posts can help you copy and learn better, which is a basic step, so don't ignore it.
Fourth, be diligent in practice.
Running script has an adaptation stage at the beginning, and I feel embarrassed if I can't write well. It doesn't matter. You can practice on wool paper or even old newspaper. Practice makes perfect. From a word to a paragraph, from a few words to a word, I gradually mastered the rules of running script and gradually formed my own running script style. Good at absorbing nutrition from many aspects: celebrity inscriptions, business plaques, street advertisements, school teachers and even classmates. As long as you observe carefully, you can find good words written by others, and when you learn them, they will become your words.
