What does it take just to learn China's calligraphy?

Question 1: What brush should beginners use to learn calligraphy? Hello, I am a calligraphy lover and won the third prize in the national painting and calligraphy competition.

Let me answer your questions one by one:

I hope it will help you:

What kind of brush do you use, the big one or the small one?

Start using the compatibility of wolf hair and wool (double brush), don't choose too big, just thumb;

What is this ink for? Do you want to use an inkstone, the one with some ink?

Ink can be used in the cupboard, and it must be mixed with water, otherwise it will stagnate, which is unfavorable to the pen-making industry; Just use a small plate for inkstone, which is easy to wash every time you finish writing;

How good is the edge paper? How about edge paper with good ink absorption and smooth surface?

Wool paper will do. You can buy thin rice paper if you can, but the price is more expensive.

What copybook is better for beginners? You'd better introduce one.

Yan Zhenqing is recommended. I chose Liu Gongquan at first. Later, the teacher told me that it was difficult for Liu Ti to become a famous figure. Practice Liu's body later.

What do you mean, copy, read and paste? Is there a sequence of posting, copying and reading?

Pro is to write in contrast, and copying is to write in the shadow covered with paper.

Suggest copying before coming;

Ask me any questions at any time. I'm happy to communicate ~ ~ ~

I wish you an early calligrapher!

Question 2: What do you need to prepare besides writing brush when you just start learning calligraphy? Wool felt (put it under paper to avoid soiling the table), ink ("Yidege" is good, generally practice with "555 odd ink" or "Pearl River"), inkstone (hold ink), wool paper (practice, similar to rice paper, cheap). If you learn from the teacher, the teacher will provide you with an inscription. If you practice by yourself, it's best. The inscription can be selected from Zhang Qianbei, Cao Quanbei, etc. You must not be impatient when learning calligraphy. You must start from the basics. You can't say that you like running script. You should start practicing from running script, which is not good for beginners. Remember.

Question 3: What brush did you choose when you first practiced calligraphy? Generally speaking, beginners can start with regular script, and they can choose short-front wool pens produced in Huzhou and Suzhou, with a hair length of about 3~3.5cm and a diameter of about 1cm, instead of long-front pens, which are suitable for cursive writing. Look at the length of the nib, not the length of the bristles, but after opening the brush, flatten the bristles to a bright place and see a transparent and shiny part on the nib. Generally speaking, the length of the transparent and shiny part is below 5~6mm, which is a short tip.

Question 4: How to learn China's calligraphy from scratch? What font should I write at first? Do you need to buy a set of brushes and copybooks to start practicing? Zero foundation must start with regular script learning. Generally, you can learn Yan style and European style first. The copybooks are Duopagoda and Jiuchenggong respectively. Just choose a copybook, you can't practice several styles at the same time.

You don't need a suit to brush, just pay. In order to save trouble, you can practice with water book cloth instead of paper and ink.

Question 5: We should start with block letters at first, because block letters can cultivate our reasonable arrangement of font structure. To practice block letters, you must first practice the basic stroke order, because those are the basics. As for the brush, just choose the center, you don't need to buy a big pen, just a small one. Also, no matter what fonts you learn, cursive script, official script, running script, etc. Regular script is the foundation.

Question 6: What brush should a novice use to practice calligraphy? Hello, the quality of brushes is not directly related to the price. I don't think your father will sell expensive pens if he doesn't sell well. The pen I use is only a few dollars. I thought an ordinary brush would do. Generally, I choose wool for calligraphy. The new pen needs to be opened, that is, it needs to be soaked in hot water. My experience is that when soaking, it will be gently pressed a few times, which will be quick and will not melt the glue of the pen root. After soaking, wash the glue, shake it vigorously, and then smooth your hair by hand, so that you can write, and then wash it after use. In fact, whether your handwriting is good or not depends mainly on your skill. You must practice your calligraphy with your heart. If you have this word in your mind, you will make progress soon. There are many kinds of brushes in China for reference, and they are well made. Among them, Hunan, Zhejiang, Jiangxi and other real estate have the best quality. According to the purpose, it is generally divided into purple hair, double brush, fountain pen, wolf hair, wool, large pen and writing brush.

Boutique features: the pen body is straight and round, the hairline is clean, straight and impartial, it does not shed hair or split when used, it is flexible and moderate, and the pen tip and pen holder are firmly combined. Pay attention to the characteristics of hair when buying, generally depending on the author's requirements.

(1) Wool Wool: Made of goat hair, it is a popular product. Among them, wool has been stored for many years, fat has dried up, and it is easy to ink; Chen is a bit rigid; Smart sheep are thin and transparent tips; A clean sheep has no impurities and its wool is soft.

(2) Purple hair: It is made of black hair on the back of the mountain rabbit. The hair is relatively rigid, and it is suitable for writing running script and cursive script.

(3) Wolf hair: made of weasel tail hair, slightly less rigid than rabbit hair.

(4) Moustache pen: made of moustache, the strokes are pure, smooth and sharp, and the written fonts are both hard and soft.

(5) Chicken brush: made of chicken chest hair, which is quite soft and difficult for beginners to master, so it is not suitable for use.

Pen selection:

The pen has "four virtues", namely "sharp, neat, round and healthy".

Sharp: When the pens are gathered together, the ends should be sharp. The pen tip is easy to write and express. Writers often refer to their pens as "bald pens", but if they are not sharp, they will become bald pens and lose the brilliance of writing. When buying a new pen, the hair is glued and polymerized, which is easy to distinguish. When checking the old pen, first wet the pen and gather the hair, then you can distinguish the sharp baldness.

Qi: refers to the pen tip after it is flattened with water. If the brush is neat, the length of the brush is equal at ordinary times, and there is no gap, then it is "ten thousand Li Qi" when writing. Because the pen needs to be completely wetted, it is difficult to check this when buying.

Round: it means that the pen is as perfect as a jujube pit, which means that the hair is sufficient. If you have more hair, you will have enough pen power to write, otherwise you will lose weight and lack pen power. The pen is perfect. The pen can turn. When shopping, there is glue in your hair. Is it perfect? Just take a closer look. Health: the elasticity of the pen waist; Press hard, lift the pen, and then return to its original state. If the pen is flexible, it can be used freely; Generally speaking, rabbit hair and wolf hair are more elastic than wool, and books are strong and firm. In this regard, press the pen after wetting, and the front is straight and healthy. Four virtues refer to the function of the pen itself, and we should also consider the copybook when choosing the pen. The same is true of the so-called "write his own words with a pen that someone has used". The best way to judge what kind of pen to use is to look at his handwriting directly: if the style is strong, choose Hao Jian; If you are charming and plump, choose soft; Hard and soft, and then choose double brush. The characteristics of the pen also affect the written calligraphy, thus achieving the wonderful scenery of calligraphy.

Another point is the size of the font. Write big words in capital letters and small words in lowercase letters. Small pen writing big characters is vulnerable to attack, so it can't be self-sufficient, and it's useless to write small characters with large pen.

Maintenance is also very important after having a good pen. To start a new pen, you must start writing. Soak the bought pen in "warm water", and the soaking time should not be too long until the nib is "completely open". Don't melt the glue at the root of the pen, otherwise it will become a "brush" and your hair will fall off easily. Violets are hard and need to be soaked in water for a while. [U

Moistening is a necessary job before writing, and you can't write as soon as you touch the ink. The method is to soak the brush with clear water first, and then lift it. Don't soak it for a long time to avoid gel at the root of the brush. After that, it takes about ten minutes to hang the pen upside down until the tip of the pen recovers its toughness. Pens must be dry when stored. If the pen is not polished, the hair will become brittle and brittle after pressing again, and the elasticity will be poor. $

Then you can start writing, and this "ink entry" is also a big problem. In order to make the ink penetrate into the writing brush evenly, the clear water must be sucked dry first, and the pen can be lightly dragged on the absorbent paper until it is dry. The so-called "dry" is not completely dry, as long as the water is removed to accommodate the ink. "The pen is divided into three parts, and you can't dip it deep into the light." If there is less ink, it will be too dry and the work will be uncomfortable. Too much ink makes the waist rise ... >>

Question 7: What tools do you need to prepare to learn to write Chinese calligraphy? How to use these tools? Four Treasures of the Study, brush, ink, raw rice paper and inkstone. And felt, copybook ... the brush is made of wool, which is very soft and easy to use. You can choose Cao Sugong as the ink. Raw rice paper, you can choose big letters and small letters when you first learn Chinese characters. If you buy an ordinary inkstone, you can find it in the stationery store. Felt can be replaced by old newspaper, and the teacher will not poke the paper if he draws a circle with a ballpoint pen. You can choose Liu Quangong's words in the copybook, which are exquisite and beautiful. I wish you a good study!

Question 8: Beginners learn China's calligraphy. . What font should I practice with? There are five forms of calligraphy: seal script, official script, regular script, running script and cursive script. Most people and I think that beginners should be based on regular script, but some people think that they should learn official script. The arrangement of regular script structure is only an intermediate stage. It evolved from official script. If regular script is flat and even, then dennis gabor's brushwork is official script. Simple writing is running script, simple writing is cursing, and now it is grass. If we start with official script, it is difficult to master the brushwork of regular script, because the brushwork of regular script is richer and more complicated than official script. It can be seen that practicing the basic skills of regular script can be used as the basis for practicing calligraphy and writing various styles.

With the basic skills of regular script, I have mastered the structure and brushwork of regular script, and then I will write regular script, official script, running script and cursive script. Even seal script can get twice the result with half the effort. Regular script can enrich and change the structure of Weibei and Lishu, such as Zhu Suiliang's regular script; The penetration of regular script into running script and cursive brushwork can increase agility, such as some inscriptions in regular script written by Zhao Meng.

Some beginners are eager to practice running script and cursive script. Because they don't have the basic skills of regular script, although they write "while flying like a dragon and dancing like a phoenix", they don't have the basic font rules and the basic skills of point strokes. As a result, they got twice the result with half the effort and took a detour.

The best way to practice regular script is to paste it. Actually, anything can be pasted. You can choose tablets according to your own preferences, such as Yan, Ou, Liu and Ji, but try to buy better quality copybooks when buying tablet stickers.

Question 9: I just started practicing brush calligraphy. How to prepare and how to do it? Choose the copybook first. Brushes can be purchased according to your own preferences. I think you are suitable for gel pen (neither soft nor hard), also called "double brush", which has two kinds: sheep purple and sheep wolf. When you are a beginner, writing in the newspaper is a good choice. I suggest you start with block letters. Block letters are the basis of all other fonts. I always feel that if regular script has no foundation, writing other poses always feels like painting rather than writing. "Yan Liu Lotus Claw" is the four calligraphy types that beginners usually choose. Yan is dignified and vigorous, Liu Ti is vigorous and powerful, Europe is white and handsome, and Zhao Ti is plump and handsome, all of which are classics. It depends on your own hobbies. You can choose one first and practice hard. Nowadays, fewer and fewer people pay attention to calligraphy, but it is indeed a hobby that can cultivate their own cultivation, and you will realize it.

Question 10: What preparations do beginners need to make to learn to write Chinese calligraphy? Brush, water book paper, that is, the kind that dries when dipped in water, ink, rice paper, pen washing and paperweight.
