The correct way to hold the thin gold pen is: first, put the five fingers together naturally, then lightly combine the thumb and index finger to form a ring, then place the pen on the middle finger, and then use the thumb and index finger to Clamp the penholder with your fingers, and finally lean the penholder against the tiger's mouth.
1. Brushwork.
The thin gold calligraphy is consistent with the brushwork method of his meticulous flower-and-bird paintings. The long strokes are as thin as tendons, with heavy lifting and pressing at the beginning and end, and the structure method of Huang Tingjian's central palace is tightly knotted and stretched out on all sides. There is a wonder of thinness and strength. This kind of thin character is suitable for inscription on his meticulous paintings, echoing the brush.
As an artist with both calligraphy and painting talents, he made a very important integration of calligraphy and painting, creating a new situation of literati calligraphy and painting that integrated poetry, calligraphy, painting and printing, and influenced later generations. And continues to this day.
2. Fusion.
Song Huizong's calligraphy strokes were thin and hard. He first learned from Huang Tingjian, and later learned from Chu Suiliang and the brothers Xue Ji and Xue Yao. He mixed various calligraphy styles, absorbed the strengths of others and came up with his own ideas, and finally created The unique "thin gold book" style has great influence. The calligraphy of the Song Dynasty was known for its charm and charm, and Zhao Ji's Thin Gold Calligraphy embodies the similar aesthetic taste of the era. It is said that "the sky is beautiful, the bones are beautiful, and the joy is subtle."
It also has a strong personality, so-called "like bending iron and breaking gold". This style of calligraphy has never appeared in previous calligraphy works. Chu Suiliang's thin brushes are only slightly the same, but most are different.
Introduction to Thin Gold Style:
1. Thin Gold Style is a font created by Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty. Traditional calligraphy styles such as Jin Kai and Tang Kai are very different, so it can be called an original creation in the history of calligraphy. Representative works include "Thousand-Character Classics in Regular Script" and "Poetry of Mang Fang".
2. The thin gold-style writing is agile and fast, and the handwriting is thin and strong, even thin without losing its flesh. The large characters are especially graceful and graceful. It is a very unique style of font.
3. This is a very mature calligraphy style, and Zhao Ji has given full play to its artistic personality. This kind of calligraphy style, which is thin and crisp, with sharp edges like orchids and bamboos, requires extremely high calligraphy skills and cultivation, as well as a calm and calm state of mind. Of course it is not easy for others to imitate.
4. Many descendants have studied his calligraphy, but those who have obtained his bone marrow are as few as the morning stars. Jin Zhangzong once imitated Huizong's thin gold calligraphy and inscribed famous paintings and calligraphy in Mingchang's palace that were robbed from the Song Dynasty, such as "The Spring Outing of Lady Zhang Xuan and Guo Guo" which is said to have been copied by Zhao Ji. The writing style is weak and the shape and quality are poor.
