What are the basic skills of hard pen calligraphy?

There are eight basic strokes for practicing basic strokes: horizontal painting, vertical painting, skimming painting, holding painting, stippling painting, sketching, picking painting and folding painting. Every word is composed of basic strokes, so writing basic strokes is the basis of writing good words. Actually, the number of strokes is small. As long as you carefully observe and study patiently, you will soon be able to master their characteristics and lay a solid foundation for writing Chinese characters.
