1, wrist relaxed, fingers naturally bent, left hand picked up the pen, put the pen on the fingertips of the ring finger, middle finger and index finger, and the little finger relaxed. Hold the penholder between thumb and forefinger to keep it vertical, and then adjust the angle of ring finger and middle finger to make the penholder write stably.
2. The curvature of the hook should be rounded: the curvature of the hook is another difficulty in hook writing, and the curvature should be rounded and natural to avoid the hook being too small or too large, which will affect the appearance of the font. The strokes should be coherent, and the beginning and end should be in place: the strokes should be coherent, and the pens should be hooked in place to avoid the strokes from breaking or dislocation.
3. Adjust the angle between the pen holder and the paper surface to make the pen holder form a 45-degree angle with the paper surface, and then push the pen tip to the upper left to make the pen tip tilt to the upper left. When the wrist is relaxed, the fingers naturally bend. Press the nib down with the fingertips of the middle finger and the ring finger, so that the nib tilts down. Repeat the above steps until the required hook length is completed.
Use of hooks
1. Connection glyph: hooks are often used to connect two or more strokes to form a whole. For example, when writing the word "er", the upper strokes and the lower strokes are connected with hooks to form a beautiful and smooth font. Change glyphs: Hooks are also often used to change the size, direction and shape of glyphs.
2. Enhance the aesthetic feeling of the glyph: The radian and length of the hook can enhance the aesthetic feeling of the glyph. For example, when writing the word "elephant", the word "day" and the word "mouth" are connected with hooks to form a small arc, which increases the aesthetic feeling of the whole glyph. Representing animal features: In some Chinese characters, hooks are also used to represent animal features.
3. When writing the word "pig", use a hook to represent the pig's tail to make the whole glyph more vivid. Decorative glyphs: In some calligraphy works, hooks are also used for decoration. For example, when writing the word "longevity", the word "inch" and the word "mouth" are connected with hooks to form a big arc, which increases the aesthetic feeling and artistic sense of the whole word.
