What should I pay attention to when practicing running script?

Running script pen has the following characteristics:

[1] stippling is mostly written by exposing the front to paper;

[2] Replace flatness with side surface;

[3] Replace complex stippling with simple strokes;

[4] Strengthen the echo of stippling by hooking, picking and tying;

[5] replace the square fold with a round turn; Big and small. That is, each word presents a different size, and there is a pen-to-pen connection of a word. The connection between words is both true and intentional, and there is a connection between them.

The combination of recovery and release. Generally short-term collection, long-term release; Back and front, side and front; Most of them are left hand, right hand, upper right hand and lower left hand, but they can also be converted to each other. Left-handed and right-handed, top-handed and bottom-handed are not excluded.

Dense and decent. Generally, it is dense on the top and sparse on the bottom, dense on the left and sparse on the right, and dense on the inside and sparse on the outside. The middle palace is compact, the white space in the box is as small as possible, and the white space of the circled strokes is as small as possible. On the layout, the word spacing is tight, the line spacing is wide, vigorous and powerful, and the colors are bright.

Light and shade blend together. Running script writing should be easy, lively and fast, and master the combination of illness and stagnation, movement and static. The ink color arrangement should be strong at the beginning and dry at the end. The lines are long and thin, short and thick, moderate in thickness and alternating in depth. Pay attention to the following points when learning running script:

First, we should get rid of the rules of regular script; When practicing regular script, I told you to hide the brushstroke, there should be changes in lifting and pressing at the turning point, first complete the ticked strokes, pick them out, and so on. These essentials should be tried to get rid of and forget when writing running script. For example, comparing regular script to martial arts routines, then running script is Sanda, and you can't start from scratch for every move and every style, so you should pay attention to fluency. Hard-pen running script advocates smooth writing and standard fonts, which is a good running script.

Second, we should copy carefully, learn running script well, and master its brushwork and writing rules after special copying training. Find yourself a good copybook when copying. Danbabei in Zhao Mengfu is a good copybook, which can be used to practice calligraphy, and can also be used to practice hard pen calligraphy by copying. Hard-pen calligraphers such as Lu Zhongnan, Ding Yongkang and Wu Yusheng can write copybooks temporarily. Practicing both Chinese calligraphy and hard calligraphy is very beneficial to learning calligraphy and can complement each other. The brush calligraphy is carefully carved, and the hard pen calligraphy is repeatedly pondered, from big to small, and then from small to big, which is very conducive to strengthening the understanding of calligraphy learning.

Third, there are only two ways to read posts and practice calligraphy: temporary posts and reading posts, and reading posts is particularly important in practicing calligraphy. Tian, the plaque writer of our painting and calligraphy class, is my good friend and has similar hobbies. His method of practicing calligraphy is to read posts, rarely stick posts, and his handwriting is flowing in one go. Originally written in official script, but the running script is also very good. Learn calligraphy from regular script as well as official script. It is easy for people who write official script to make a mistake, that is, the running script is often not well written, while Mr. Tian's running script is profound and graceful. According to himself, his method is to read posts.

Fourth, we should practice running script diligently. At the beginning, there is an adaptation stage. If you feel ashamed of your poor writing, it doesn't matter. You can practice in your notebook, or you can practice writing with lines for yourself when you keep a diary. Practice makes perfect. From a word to a paragraph, from a few words to a word, I gradually mastered the rules of running script and gradually formed my own running script style. Be good at absorbing nutrition from many aspects, such as celebrity inscriptions, corporate plaques, school teachers and even classmates. As long as you observe carefully, you can find good words written by others, and when you learn them, they will become your words.
