First, about regular script;
Regular script is also called regular script, real script and official script. It gradually evolved from official script, becoming more simplified and more horizontal and vertical. Ci Hai is interpreted as "square, straight and exemplary". This Chinese character font is the commonly used handwritten orthographic Chinese character.
Second, font classification;
1, lower case: lower case, as the name implies, is the smallest type of regular script, which was founded in Zhong You of the Wei Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms. He used to be the most outstanding official script authority, and his regular script brushwork was also born in Han Li. His brushwork is as vivid as Hong Fei's frolicking in the sea. However, the structure is wide and flat, the horizontal painting is long and the vertical painting is short, and the legacy of official division still exists. However, the model method is ready, and it is actually the ancestor of the official book. When Wang Xizhi came to the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he studied the lower case calligraphy more carefully and made it perfect, which also set a good appreciation standard for China's lower case calligraphy.
2. Block letters: Under normal circumstances, people call real books that are more than one inch and several inches square block letters. The larger characters in real books are called "Bangshu" and "Broken Book". According to the accumulated experience of calligraphers in past dynasties, learning calligraphy should start with writing big characters and doing basic exercises. Mastering the stippling, structure and white cloth in block letters, and making stippling accurate and proper, then writing in block letters can be comprehensive and the stippling rules are clear; Moreover, the study list can be intimate, open-minded and not distracted.
Third, learning methods;
Learning regular script should pay attention to the rules;
1, uniform. The overall sense of regular script, first of all, is neat. The arrangement of words and lines is equidistant, giving people a steady and solemn visual effect. This form is most suitable for regular script in a strict sense. If the shapes with different knot widths and lengths change locally, there will be no disharmony or monotony in regular script that is uniform but not stiff.
2. Diversity and unity. The biggest feature of Zhao Ti's regular script is that it contains elements of running script, and its brushwork is changeable, taking characters as shapes, without deliberate arrangement, and it has a very harmonious and unified relationship in diversity and changeability. It gives people the feeling that there is movement in silence and affection in words. A calligraphy work is first infected with its overall effect, which is composed of countless parts. Therefore, when arranging the composition, we should not ignore the details of each word, such as the shape, length, change, and sense of rhythm, which require careful consideration and strict design. Only after a long period of unremitting tempering can we handle the composition freely, presenting a design beauty that seems to have no design, and reaching a higher realm of calligraphy art.
The rules of regular script are not complicated, and the main forms are nave, couplets, banners, horizontal accounts and sectors. In the arrangement of regular script, the word spacing and line spacing are basically the same, but some line spacing is greater than the word spacing; They are all written vertically from right to left, and those with fewer words are still written from right to left; Modern Chinese is written horizontally from left to right. This method can also be used under special needs, but it is better to write vertically from right to left. Writing attention
