Fonts change from slender to square, tighten up and down, stretch left and right, and change from slow to fast, showing a lively and diverse atmosphere, which brings great convenience to writers.
Then the problem is coming. Although the official script is really beautiful, it is really not easy to write it well.
For example, I have practiced official script for half a year, but I can read the written words, so I am embarrassed to make friends.
Finally, I had to have the cheek to ask the master who wrote official script. After his advice, I found that these three reasons hindered my progress.
1, slightly dry
The handwriting is too dry, that is, one word is written in two fonts.
The word "true grass synthesis" means too dry. Of course, it also includes the words "true official seal", "official seal" and "official grass".
The law of calligraphy is the standard to distinguish the artistic characteristics of fonts, and there can be no mistakes.
"If Hao (milli) doesn't pay attention, then Hu's style is awkward." Therefore, it is absolutely not allowed to write calligraphy in a dry way, but it should be regarded as an innovation of calligraphy.
The disadvantages of poor brushwork in modern times are more serious, mainly because "I want to change but I don't know what to change" and I don't understand the meaning of "every word must have several methods", which confuses meaning and law.
Of course, this is also related to misinformation, misleading and unconventional.
2. Stagnation
Because the basic requirement of calligraphy is to write the strokes vividly, calligraphers of all ages regard the stagnation of calligraphy as a major drawback.
"Books should not be stagnant, and paintings should not be hardened." In terms of brushwork, Emperor Taizong also said: "Don't draw a dead picture, you can write." Since the Qing Dynasty, people have become increasingly alienated from brushwork, and due to social and political reasons, a rigid and stagnant "pavilion" has been formed.
However, among the people who opposed the "cabinet style", calligraphers who advocated the law posts failed to get rid of the drawbacks of stagnation; Calligraphers who worship monuments, because "ancient and modern resistance, no questions",
In fact, I use a bald pen to describe seal script, and I use sheep hair to draw official script, and the strokes are also very dull.
As for the performance of stagnation, it is like dead wood, dead snake and broken flute. The dead wood-like sick pen is caused by being pulled by the straight front, which is the so-called "vertical front Gan Lu."
The snake-shaped sick pen is dead because it is dragged around and lacks realistic and realistic guidance. Poor brushwork and poor shape are caused by brushwork, which is common in Lishu and Wei Bei's calligraphy.
3, floating thin
The thinness of the pen is also a big disadvantage. The brushwork requires firmness, Qi Li, penetrating the back of the paper, "three points of human and wood", and the strokes are written as "iron-painted silver hooks" to show the vitality of calligraphy art
Most of the mistakes made by the ancients were due to improper writing methods, but now people obviously lack learning skills.
Some "calligraphers" not only can't grasp the strokes more tightly, but also can't swing them vertically, even horizontally and vertically, so it is inevitable that they will write the strokes as fine as vines;
Or use the front hair a dime, spread it out too much, can't run out of style, and the strokes are written like rotten ropes;
Or my wrist is broken, my pen is lying on the paper, and my strokes are like noodles. Calligraphy is the art of "learning with pens". Without the pass of calligraphy, you can't enter the gate of calligraphy art garden.
If you encounter the same troubles as me in the process of learning official script, I suggest collecting it.
