First of all, understand the history and basic characteristics of the tablet.
The full name of "Dawang Monument" is "the Tomb of the King of Koguryo in Peace", which is the achievement monument of the 19th generation of Wangtan De (374-413) of Koguryo. Historically, Koguryo was a minority on our northern border. A good understanding of the monument is of great reference value to the study of Koguryo, the Korean Peninsula and the activities of Japanese pirates in those days.
The font features of "Good King Monument" inherited the official script and showed signs of developing to regular script. The whole font adopts a round pen, which has a neat and concise appearance and a sense of adduction, but the internal structure is blank and not crowded, and the whole font is full and concise. This may be a change process in which the author wanted to innovate when writing fonts at that time, but did not want to completely inherit the style of official script, and deliberately innovated in the direction of regular script. Use the pen as a whole. "When the round pen is twisted, Fang Bi will turn. If the round pen is not twisted, it will be soft. If Fang Bi does not turn, it will stagnate." The process of stippling calligraphy is natural, and the ending returns to the original, not deliberately.
Second, generally learning any kind of copybook calligraphy is carried out in the order of reading, copying and copying.
Post reading: a kind of post reading that first understands the history and basic characteristics of rubbings. Then deeply understand the font structure, composition, pen, charm and so on.
Copy paste: We learn anything from imitation. Copying is the beginning of imitation. Only by imitating the rules and skills of calligraphy can we master the structure and overall style of fonts more quickly in calligraphy learning.
Pro-post: it is no longer necessary to follow the description, but to write against the copybook, which is also an imitation. In the process of pro-calligraphy, we must be loyal to the original post, learn from the essence of previous calligraphy, master the essence of its font, and master the stroke structure.
Practicing calligraphy depends on persistence, and there are no more shortcuts. Only by accumulating day after day can we grasp the beauty of calligraphy more quickly.
