The forefinger and thumb hold the pen at a distance of 3 cm from the pen tip, and at the same time, this part leans against the middle position of the first joint of the middle finger (the forefinger holds the pen, the middle finger holds the pen upward, and the three fingers hold the pen stably). Pay attention to the index finger and thumb relax and bend naturally. The pen stands slightly at the root of the index finger, not in the tiger's mouth. The palm of your hand is naturally empty, so keep your fingers away from it. The tip of the little finger and the root of the wrist are stuck on the paper.
The position of the index finger on the pen holder is slightly lower than the thumb, which makes the pen more stable and can properly prevent the index finger from bending inward. The nib is 30mm between the index finger and the middle finger, and the nib rests on the tiger's mouth, and then the thumb presses the pen, and the pen is pressed just right; The ring finger and the little finger touch the middle finger in turn, offsetting the power of the thumb, leaving the palm empty and lifting the wrist.
The advantages of practicing calligraphy and choosing pens
It's best to practice writing with a pen. Regardless of the calligraphy of any pen, mainly the combination of Chinese characters and the use of strokes, the use of strokes is mostly hidden front, center, side front, back front and hook front. When practicing hard pen calligraphy, only a pen can do it. Where you can exert your strength, the strokes are thick and thin, and you can see the strokes of a brush.
Whether for children or adults who have just started practicing calligraphy, the strength and style of pen words give people a sense of beauty and increase their self-confidence. Write quickly, write fluently and be more effective. Skillful use of the pen can produce muscle memory, and it will naturally bring out strokes when writing in the future. Practicing calligraphy can improve personal quality and cultural connotation.
