? He is famous for "Epitaph of a Spring Boy" and "Taoist Monument", especially the latter. I was very unhappy when I saw it before, and I didn't like it at all because I thought it was too rigid. But strictly speaking, it is said that he still surpasses his father in structure, and his overall performance is certainly not as good as that of Europe. Therefore, the main thing for Qing people to learn from him is to learn his structure, and Mr. Qi Gong is also highly respected in this respect, so sometimes I will practice it. As you can see, I have a very obvious feature that my brushwork is soft and fragile, so I have to work hard on the structure. This is a good medicine, although a little bitter, but I think it should be able to save my words well.
? During this time, many friends who have met or have not met, including some friends in the calligraphy field, saw my handwriting and said at the beginning, Oh, you are a scholar of Song Xue, which made me very depressed. Because although I want to go this way in the future, I really haven't written much about Zhao Ti, which shows that my handwriting is really weak, which I have to admit and can see. Although I feel uncomfortable and don't like it, this is the feeling that Jing Shizhong suddenly looks back.
? I have said many times that regular script should start from Tang Jie, and only write the European style of Yan Liu. Why can't we start with Zhao Ti? There are two reasons. First of all, you must have a basic knowledge of regular script and running script. Second, you should have a very high cultural literacy. Third, do not be weak in writing. Once you start here, you're finished. The weakness of some female calligraphers and some elegant women in the history of China began with Zhao Ti.
? Zhao Ziang is a genius of ice and snow. At the same time, he works hard and writes thousands of words every day. He also studied Wei Bei and Li Beihai, so his handwriting is not weak, so he can surpass the Tang Dynasty and enter the Jin Dynasty, but his beauty is very elegant and natural. Because of his efforts, he casually wrote into a super mysterious realm. That is to do whatever you want and not cross the line. Many people are not talented enough and have no profound knowledge and cultivation (learning and cultivation). From him, they got a wonderful shape and left their air, so they naturally fell off, so they were admired by later generations. This is a wrong path, and learners should not be careless.
? Some time ago, there was a popular saying in the book world that self-learning calligraphy was tantamount to suicide. This sentence is also right and wrong, and it is right because someone does it. I remember that Mr. Tian, the calligraphy tutor of Nankai University, once said that he had met many people in his life and practiced hard for forty, fifty or even sixty years, but he was still a Jianghu character, which made people feel pity. It is wrong to say this, because many calligraphers are really self-taught, and the flowers they pick become the honey in their hearts, as sweet as a cup of tea. So this is not necessarily the case.
? Many people adopt the correct plan, such as the doctoral supervisor of the Central Academy of Fine Arts. Qiu once said that many students have never touched a brush. Starting from the formal methods and systematic brushwork, three months has exceeded many efforts of 65,438+00 years. Why? The reason is that he broke the cellophane in one sentence, and naturally he can get good results.
? But isn't this over? This is also the problem of many academic calligraphers I mentioned. They have learned the training of the standard system, but they lack a real interest and behavior behind it. I have met many so-called calligraphy graduate students, and they are still at that level after graduation for several years or even longer. Why? On the one hand, they lack motivation and need to continue learning. On the other hand, they only regard it as technology, which can never be called art. I often say to students: Only when it is difficult can they have a level, think and think.
? Calligraphy world, let's make progress together. Thank you for your attention.
