Running script is a kind of calligraphy, which is divided into running script and running script. It is developed and originated on the basis of regular script, and it is a font between regular script and cursive script, which is produced to make up for the slow writing speed of regular script and the illegibility of cursive script. "Go" means "go", so it is not as scribbled as cursive script, nor as straight as regular script.
Whether it is cursive or cursive in essence. Those with more patterns than grass patterns are called "running patterns", and those with more grass patterns are called "running grass". Running script is both practical and artistic, and regular script is a literal symbol, which is practical and skillful; Comparatively speaking, cursive script is highly artistic, but its practicality is relatively insufficient.
Running script, from Wang Xizhi's hand, combines practicality and artistry. As a result, the colorful southern calligraphy art has emerged and become the most influential school in the history of calligraphy. Professor Peking University and pioneer Li Zhimin commented: "Wang Xizhi's calligraphy not only shows simplicity and abstinence based on Laozi and Zhuangzi's philosophy, but also shows harmony based on Confucian golden mean."
Running script must have a dynamic momentum. Method 1: increase the inclination of horizontal painting and vertical painting to enhance the dynamic situation of the whole word; Secondly, the square characters are inclined into a hypotenuse shape to enhance the dynamic situation of the characters from the dangerous potential; Third, rely on the right to make the font lively, stable and easy to open; Fourthly, the contrast between the virtual and the real is adopted to make the fonts dynamically balanced.
In addition, we should also pay attention to the size of words, white cloth, reality, thickness, dry and wet changes and their pen characteristics, so that the running script written will naturally have momentum. At the same time, due to the fast pace of running script, we should pay special attention to the composure and toughness of writing, draw vertically, grasp, unfold and maintain.
Don't slip to make the nib thin and empty, especially for writing long-coiled pens with needles. When closing the pen, it should be sharp and full, full of strength and surplus potential, inexhaustible, and cover the paper from beginning to end, making the virtual tip wander.
