How to write calligraphy for books

How to write calligraphy in books is introduced as follows:

When writing horizontally, pay attention to the strokes. The second horizontal stroke is the longest, and the other horizontal strokes are longer than the other. The Japanese characters are written in Japanese characters. Be careful not to exceed the horizontal line above.

What should you pay attention to when writing calligraphy?

1. The attitude must be correct. Some people do not pay attention to writing. They think that it does not matter whether the handwriting is good or not. As long as the answer is correct, you can get full marks in the exam. In fact, if you write well, you will benefit for life.

2. The writing posture should be correct. If the posture is not correct, the written words will not be correct; the eyes are too close to the homework book, which can easily cause myopia; when doing homework, the posture will be bent and the written words will not be correct. Crooked, big and small.

3. Practice diligently, only through diligent practice.

Writing posture and writing

(1) Sit upright, with shoulders flat and back straight. The body and head should not be tilted, let alone lowered; the distance between the eyes and the table should be about One foot, the front chest is about three inches from the edge of the table.

(2) Hold the pen upright, and the pen tip should be straight forward. Do not tilt it inward (as long as the palm of your hand is flat, the pen tip will naturally move forward); the tip of the index finger should be about an inch away from the pen tip. If you hold the pen incorrectly or the tip of the pen is tilted inwards, you will not be able to write smoothly, you will not be able to write horizontally, you will not be able to write well, and you will not be able to write smoothly. You may even have to move your right hand every time you write a stroke. At the same time, the written lines have no spine and no rhythm, and the glyphs cannot be said to be relaxed and generous.

(3) The inclination of the pen barrel. To write large characters, hold the pen upwards and the inclination of the pen barrel should be slightly larger. To write small characters, hold the pen downwards and the inclination of the pen barrel slightly smaller. The general slope should be at the index finger joint. If it exceeds this position, the strokes written will be either rigid or dull. If the inclination of the pen barrel is inappropriate, the pen speed will be limited, and it will be impossible to write elegant and charming glyphs, so the "tiger's mouth" should not be tilted.

(4) Hold the pen lightly so that you can move the pen freely; if you hold the pen too tightly, your writing will not be broad and generous. According to what I saw during lectures in middle schools, in a class of fifty students, forty-five students held their pens incorrectly or their pen tips were tilted inward. This is also the case in universities. It is for this reason that the characters written by these students are not hooked properly. It looks like a hook, but the 捺 does not look like a 捺. The strokes are all flat and piled up.

As mentioned before, the quality of writing is absolutely related to posture and writing. Just like a carpenter sawing wood, if your posture and holding the saw are not correct, no matter how straight the "line" is, you will saw it crookedly. This is the same as writing good calligraphy.

Start by learning the basic strokes of regular script, namely dot, horizontal, vertical, left, back, lift, hook and fold.

A character is like a machine. Practicing the basic strokes is like processing the "parts"; practicing the radicals is like starting the "assembly"; practicing the entire glyph is like entering the "final assembly" . That is to say, learn "decomposition" first, and then learn "coherence". Therefore, regular script is the foundation, and basic strokes are the foundation of the foundation.

When practicing basic strokes, practice them in categories. For example, when practicing writing "丶", you should practice 丶,丿,丶,丨, etc. separately, and then write "continuous" and combine them.

General rules: when practicing regular script, practice basic strokes first; then practice the order of strokes; thirdly, practice radicals; fourthly, practice glyph structure; fifthly, practice branch layout.

The "dots" of Chinese characters should be emphasized when writing, like a stone falling to the ground. What kind of points are needed for what kind of parts, it is necessary to "concentrate on the writing first". For example, the writing method of Zhong Shaojing and Ouyang Xun above "倀" is more powerful when written in short vertical strokes.
