How do adults practice pen writing well
It is not so easy for adults whose fonts have been finalized to practice pen writing well. Because we didn't pay attention to the quality of words before, some ugly or even misspelled words have become a bad habit, which is difficult to correct. They want to practice calligraphy now, but they often just tinker with the existing fonts and choose fonts similar to their own. This is often the case, the good ones are not learned, and the bad ones are not lost, so that the more you practice, the uglier you get.
So how do adults practice writing well?
First of all, let them forget the previous fonts completely, start from scratch and practice from the most basic point strokes. Then practice the structure. For pen words, the most important thing is structure, and the quality of structure directly affects the beauty of words. Therefore, it is most important to write a good pen and ink structure. But now there is a difficult problem to solve, that is, it is difficult to forget the previous fonts, and old habits are often brought into new fonts during the posting process. To change this situation, the best way is to choose block letters different from your previous fonts for copying. Practice orthography in block letters. Practice for a week or two or more, and you can achieve orthomorphism. When the shape is straight, I also want to choose a running script copybook that is completely different from my original font and I think it is very beautiful to copy. If the font was stiff before, choose a bold copybook; If the font is sloppy, choose a rigorous copybook; If the font is plain, choose smart copybook; If the font is soft and smooth, choose strong copybooks, if the font is bloated, choose exquisite copybooks, and so on. After practicing for two or three months, you can learn new fonts. I often encounter such problems in my study. I made rapid progress in the first few days, but after a while I felt that my writing was getting worse and worse. This is a normal phenomenon. At this time, as long as you just hold your horses and keep practicing, after a period of hard work, you can get out of the predicament and get on the right track. The purpose of copying is to forget the previous words, remember the words in the copybook and use them. After that, we should sort out the relationship between words and lines, which is the so-called composition. For people who just want to write beautifully, but don't want to make achievements in this respect, it is enough to do the above. This is the experience I got in my study, and I also introduced these experiences to others, and the effect is good.
You can't achieve something in the art of pen calligraphy overnight. We should not only learn from the use, structure, composition and charm of brush calligraphy, but also give full play to the inherent characteristics of the pen. Only in this way can the art of pen calligraphy flourish and make her have strong and permanent vitality. Otherwise, pen calligraphy can only be a vassal of brush calligraphy, and it will not develop and innovate, and it will not have strong and permanent vitality.
Second, the basic knowledge of pen calligraphy
Calligraphy is the skill of writing. "Book" is writing; "Fa" means methods, skills and rules, that is, the art of writing Chinese characters. It is a unique advanced art form of our Chinese nation.
Pen calligraphy is a kind of line writing and plastic art that uses pen to express Chinese characters. Its "running script" is a method of expressing various strokes of Chinese characters with pens, and its "modeling" is the structure and composition of Chinese characters. Therefore. Pen calligraphy is the same as brush calligraphy, which includes three basic and key factors, namely lines (strokes), structure and composition, which are called the three elements of calligraphy.
The so-called line (stroke) refers to the trace left by the first stroke of Chinese characters on paper. The appearance and image of the same stroke written by writers at different levels are very different.
The so-called structure refers to the correct and ingenious organization of strokes, so that all strokes of each Chinese character are arranged reasonably according to the rules, which meets the aesthetic requirements.
The so-called composition refers to the method of text layout, even if a calligraphy work is beautiful as a whole. It emphasizes the coordination, echo, coherence, density and reflection between words and lines, and makes use of the distribution of black and white, the size of fonts, the distance between words and the state of words equal to the singularity of paragraphs, so that all kinds of words can form harmonious, beautiful and interesting works of art under reasonable and ingenious layout. Can arouse people's aesthetic feeling.
Correct, clear, fluent and beautiful calligraphy. It is not only beneficial to work and study, but also the embodiment of cultural accomplishment and a kind of beautiful enjoyment.
