Write calligraphy with words.

Calligraphy has two key factors, one is "book" and the other is "method". You have to write Chinese characters first, and then you have to have a method, so that you can call it calligraphy, instead of drawing a gourd ladle. You can call it calligraphy only after you write well. Just like writing poetry, you should have charm in it.

Calligraphy is based on writing and people's understanding of Chinese characters, which makes the words written by it have connotation and artistic sublimation. Before the Eastern Han Dynasty, "book" only meant writing. The real change is that after the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when people were writing, they gradually discovered the formal beauty of Chinese characters, and then gradually summed up some writing arts and performance rules.

Because of a better understanding of Chinese characters, many people express the author's emotional, interesting, self-cultivation, verve, style, thought and other spiritual factors through the form of Chinese characters, thus forming the art of calligraphy. It doesn't matter whether your handwriting is good or not. Although your handwriting is beautiful, it lacks charm and is not a calligraphy work.

Characters are tools used to spread ideas and culture, so they have a wide range of practical value. Chinese characters are rich in images and various, and they have artistic expression value in addition to practicality.

The purpose of writing is to accurately express the meaning of a word and spread its practical value, so as long as you conform to the basic structure of Chinese characters, it is not important to write the font correctly and clearly.

Calligraphy is different. Good calligraphy works will be framed for people to appreciate, taste and even copy. And artistry includes three elements: brushwork, brushwork and rhyme, which is the combination of technique and charm, and the perfect combination of calligraphy artistry and text content. Only in this way can we write a work called calligraphy.
