To what extent can calligraphy be considered a calligrapher?

if you practice to become a calligrapher, even if you finally become a calligrapher, you can only be an ordinary calligrapher.

You should practice calligraphy because you love and pursue the art of calligraphy, and keep imitating the ancients. Don't be fooled by the so-called modern masters. In the end, you will gain a lot!

You have to be conscious for more than ten years or even a lifetime. Maybe you can mix some tricks in a few years if you are lucky, but it doesn't mean that you have understood all of calligraphy ... Remember that.
