With the family style of reading newspapers and practicing calligraphy at home, there is always a strong ink fragrance at home.
Expert Interpretation: How long have calligraphers lived since ancient times? When practicing calligraphy, the key points should be solid, palm empty and wrist flat, which embodies the unity of form, spirit and cultivation. When lifting a pen, the fingers and wrist joints move rhythmically with the stroke order, which can adjust the muscles and nerves of the arm and drive other parts of the body to move slowly, thus achieving the effect of "invigorating the bones and muscles and moving the limbs". Of course, when practicing calligraphy and painting, we should pay attention to adjusting the body (posture), adjusting the breath (breathing), adjusting the heart (mind), eliminating external interference and enjoying it.
