The ancients said: "Take the law and make it appropriate." Practising pen calligraphy, especially friends who have a certain foundation, should draw nutrition from ancient excellent brush calligraphy. Choose a clear template with more words. "The post in the law must be complete. There are many words in the book, and many words are exemplary. " At the same time, in the study and reference of brush calligraphy, we should be targeted, and we should not take our favorite copybooks casually, but choose small copybooks. Lowercase copybooks have obvious characteristics, small visual deviation and easy to master. Every Chinese character is a whole, and the face will vary with the length and inclination of stippling, and the relative position of the structure will move. For example, Zhong You's Manifestations, Wang Xizhi's Huang Ting Jing, Yue Yi Lun, Wang Xianzhi's Sonnets, and some famous calligraphy works handed down from Sui and Tang Dynasties, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties.
2. Read more theoretical articles to improve aesthetic awareness.
Reading is an effective way to enrich knowledge and raise awareness. The same is true of learning pen calligraphy. Calligraphers in ancient and modern times are not only good at creative practice, but also proficient in theoretical research, and have handed down calligraphy works, which have had a far-reaching impact on the study and research of later generations. For example, Liu Xizai's Introduction to Art, Sun's Book Score, His Praise of Pen Meaning, He Manzong's Introduction to China's Pen Calligraphy, His Essentials of Hard Pen Calligraphy and so on. At the same time, there are small articles scattered in newspapers and periodicals, among which there are many incisive theories, which are good teaching materials to strengthen theoretical cultivation. In addition, we should strengthen the study of sister arts such as literature, philosophy, aesthetics and music. "Reading more than 10,000 volumes, writing is like a god." "On talent, write first and then ink." Only by reading through the calligraphy of ancient and modern calligraphers, winning their trust, drawing inferences from others, learning from others, applying what they have learned, and combining literature and ink, can the creative level reach a handy and superb position.
3, more basic training, improve the ability of practice and creativity.
Basic skills are the foundation of pen calligraphy creation. If you don't have some basic strokes and basic techniques training, you can't reach the peak of pen calligraphy in one day. If you want to create beautiful pen calligraphy works, you must first practice some basic things, such as writing method, stippling structure, stroke order and so on. With these foundations, we should practice the structure, composition and format of pen calligraphy. Because the work is designed by stippling, structure, composition, layout and other factors. If the basic skills are not solid, and the strength, speed and focus of creation are not mastered, the overall effect of calligraphy works will be directly affected. Therefore, strengthening basic skills training is particularly important to improve the level of calligraphy creation.
4. Watch more famous performances to improve perceptual knowledge.
At present, some well-known hard-pen calligraphers should watch carefully and carefully consider the writing posture, writing speed, composition and so on. However, most pen calligraphy learners don't have this advantage, so they can get in touch with them through communication. Generally speaking, the more famous calligraphers are, the more eager they are to seek advice from post-scholars, and they will make suggestions without reservation. If we can get their guidance, we can not only find the success of creation, but also find our own shortcomings and problems. Carry forward the advantages, overcome the disadvantages, learn from others' advantages and make up for your own shortcomings. Over time, your pen calligraphy creation level will also increase day by day.
