The correct holding posture for calligraphy is such as the five-finger holding method.
/p>
The specific method of holding the pen is: press the inside of the first book of the thumb against the side of the penholder, and the thumb is in a slightly horizontal position at the first joint of the index finger or the second joint. Press the penholder from the outside to the inside. The middle finger is close to the index finger, and the ring finger is close to the middle finger. The root of the first nail is close to the penholder to resist the force of the index finger, and the little finger is pressed inward. Apply a little force to the lower side of the pen.
This will form the force of the five fingers to evenly surround the three sides of the pen, so that the pen is fixed and the palm of the hand is empty. The ancients called it "phoenix eye", "tiger's mouth", "goose head" and other different postures of five-finger writing.
