Key points of pen regular script stroke writing
To learn regular script, you must first practice strokes. The quality of strokes directly affects the structural effect of words. The strokes are like parts, and the structure is like assembly. If the strokes are well written and combined into words, it is easy to make them all qualified. The stroke writing requirements of pen regular script can be summarized as three words, namely, "writing, standing and accuracy", that is, writing each stroke has three steps: writing (heavy or light), writing (light, straight or arc or bend), collecting (or stopping or lifting the pen tip lightly), and not dragging or drawing. In the basic strokes of Chinese characters, horizontal painting can represent the stroke process of various strokes. The reason lies in: thousands of strokes are born at one point, painted with dots, and accumulated into words. For example, the point extending to the right is horizontal, the horizontal vertical downward is vertical, the horizontal lower left is skimming, the lower right is pulling, and so on. As long as you master the basic essentials of horizontal writing, that is, rewriting-lightly writing-retracting the pen, other strokes can not be separated from this pen-lifting route, but the parts and forms of force are different. Draw a line with a horizontal brush, as shown in the above figure:
When writing a stroke, whether it is writing or dragging horizontally, the effect of the stroke is different.
Quite, that is, the strokes are straight, strong and powerful. There are two main factors that reflect the "strength" of strokes: first, strokes that are horizontal or vertical should be straight, and strokes should not tremble up and down or left and right, so as to be straight as a line. Second, the strokes with "arc" or "bend" should not be bent, but should be turned from circle to bow.
Accuracy means to look at the position of the pen before writing the strokes, which mainly means to look at the position of the strokes in the middle of the grid in the copybook during copying; Second, it depends on the shape of the strokes. The same stroke has different forms of expression, such as length, short, horizontal, vertical and oblique, in the structure of different words or in different parts of the same word. It is necessary to read and write accurately. Third, we must look at the thickness of strokes, whether they are heavy or light, whether the pen is closed or sharp, and we must look at the accuracy of writing. Make sure the location is accurate, the length is appropriate and the rent is appropriate.
Horizontal and vertical skimming
The following is a detailed introduction to the writing of various strokes.
(a) horizontal painting should be written smoothly, because horizontal plays a balance role in a word, and uneven words are unstable. There are long strokes and short strokes horizontally. The stroke is slightly heavier, the stroke to the right is slightly lighter, and the stroke to the right is slightly pressed. The whole stroke is in the form of low left and high right, prone down. Because of people's visual illusion, horizontal painting cannot be written horizontally, but should be written as left low and right high. Gently press the pen when you close it to make the strokes heavier, so it looks more stable. Therefore, people often say "horizontal and vertical" does not mean horizontal and vertical writing, but requires smooth reading.
The short horizontal is written like this: write lightly, from light to heavy, write to the right, and stop writing when you write about half of the long horizontal. The strokes tilt slightly to the right.
(2) vertical painting should be written vertically, because vertical painting often plays a key supporting role for a word. Not vertical, not straight. Vertical is divided into hanging dew, hanging needle and short vertical. The writing method of vertical hanging is slightly heavier when writing, lighter when writing vertically, and slightly heavier when connecting.
The writing of hanging needle is the same as hanging dew, except that the pen is closed from heavy to light, the pen is closed in front, and the stroke is pointed.
Short and vertical, the writing is the same as vertical, but the strokes are short, and the short and vertical writing should be short and powerful.
(3) Skimming the painting is very decorative. If you can write naturally, it will increase the aesthetic feeling of words, and sometimes it can play a role in balancing and stabilizing the center of gravity. There are oblique, vertical and short skimming. Oblique writing means that the pen is slightly heavier, from heavy to light, the pen is down to the left, and the pen tip is sharp when it is closed.
Vertical stroke, slightly heavier, from heavy to light, downward stroke, to two-thirds of the length, downward stroke to the left; When the pen is closed, it is pointed vertically, slightly heavier when it is closed, from heavy to light, strokes down to two-thirds of the stroke length, strokes down to the left, and fingers vertically when it is closed.
Short strokes are written the same as oblique strokes, but the strokes are shorter. When a short stroke appears in the prefix, the shape of the stroke is relatively flat, such as "dry, reverse, granular and backward"; When a short stroke appears in the upper left of a word, the shape of the stroke is oblique, such as "raw, granular, damaged, Zhu" and so on.
(4) It is difficult to write because it is thick and clear. There are oblique strokes and flat strokes. Oblique, write gently (lightly), draw to the right with a pen from light to heavy, press the pen at the foot of the stroke again, and then drag it out from heavy to light in the horizontal direction to the right, with a sharp pen.
Si, write oblique Si, but write short horizontal lines first, and then write down (slightly flat).
Point hanging vertical hook and curved hook
(5) stippling is as important as human eyes in a word, which is the spiritual embodiment of a word. Stippling can be divided into right point, left point, vertical point and long point. At the right point, write lightly, write from light to heavy to the right, press slightly and then close the pen. You can't redraw it, you can draw it all at once. The key to writing is to have a writing process, and never close the pen as soon as the pen tip touches the paper. These characteristics of the above strokes reflect the richness and variability of pen regular script lines, and reflect the dynamic beauty and dynamic beauty of Chinese character stroke lines from different angles, which lays the foundation for the artistic creation of pen calligraphy.
