Studying official script, how to write "Zhang Qian Stele" well Before studying "Zhang Qian Stele" in depth, you must first understand the historical background of its creation and the history of the book to which "Zhang Qian Stele" belongs. status. We can fully see the important position of "Zhang Qian Stele" in the history of calligraphy and its strong artistic influence. Secondly, we must be good at reading and presenting monuments. It can be said that sometimes reading the stele is better than repeating the script. In this way, it is easier to achieve twice the result with half the effort. The overall style of "Zhang Qian Stele" is old-fashioned and dignified. It uses a variety of pens and sharp strokes. The characters are internally effective, clever but clumsy. Because of the shape of the characters, they dare to take risks and make many changes. The composition is uneven and scattered, and it is natural, just like the stars in the sky, there is a secret. Therefore, when we read the stele, we must purposefully carefully study the writing, wording, and composition in the arsenic, savor its spirit carefully, and strive to transform the shapes in the stele into the meaning in our hearts. At the same time, we must be diligent in setting up monuments. The requirements for facing the stele are: through the method of facing and carrying, not only the appearance but also the spiritual similarity should be achieved. That is to say, the use of brushwork, structure, style, momentum, etc. must be similar to the original stele. At the same time, we must learn from the courage and courage to break the rules, express individuality, dare to capture the spirit of the past, and make every stroke, every word, and every word Each one of them is written with a clanking sound, like a bronze vessel with deep and dense claws.

Calligraphy is mainly about brushwork. Brushwork, simply put, is the way the hairs of the brush operate in stippling. The strokes include ups and downs, middle and side, square and round, hidden, light and heavy, quick and astringent and other changes. Therefore, Kang Youwei said: "The beauty of calligraphy lies entirely in the way the brush is used." The beauty of "Zhang Qian Stele" lies in the variety of strokes used in the "Zhang Qian Stele". This book details the eight original strokes of "Zhang Qian Stele" and nearly a hundred types of strokes. The styling changes may not be detailed. Therefore, if we want to truly write "Zhang Qian Monument", we must pay attention to the method of using the brush to make the strokes and lines change. For example, the issue of Zhongzheng's writing style. This is the standard of calligraphy that calligraphers have always practiced. Only with a firm and straight brush can the stipples written be perfect and vigorous. Therefore, when writing "Zhang Qian Monument", the center should be mainly used, but the side forwards should also be used in combination. Because the center forward and the wing forward are two kinds of wood-breaking skills that depend on each other and coexist. Without "side", there is no such thing as "center". Combined with the use of side strikers, the strokes can be more varied. Another example is the change in the weight and weight of the square and circle of the Sichuan pen. The square strokes are solemn, strong and forceful. If you use square strokes purely, they will appear stiff and rigid, lacking in spirit. If you read the strokes with round strokes, vigorous, lively and beautiful, just like "a single Yin", it will easily become frivolous and thin. "Zhang The Sichuan style of "Qian Bei" is mainly square. However, after years of weathering, these knife marks have become blurred, making people feel square and unfavorable. Therefore, we should not be limited when writing "Zhang Qian Bei". The first method is to adhere to the use of square and round strokes. In addition, when writing, we must also pay attention to the changes in Sichuan style such as hidden zheng, exposed zheng, light lifting of claws, and quick and slow movement. We must be loyal to the original stele. , and don’t stick to one method. We must dare to break through and innovate.
