Vertical is the main bone in Chinese characters and is often regarded as a pillar. Standing at attention is like a soldier, holding a pen is the most outstanding, holding his head high and holding his chest like an iron column, and if you want to be a crossbow, you must go up and down first. "Vertical" is indeed the backbone of the word, and it plays the role of "pillar" in the word. Write hard, stand at attention and hold your head high.
Word method:
Calligraphy is a line modeling art. The so-called brushwork mainly talks about how to shape ideal lines (stippling).
Lift and press-write by the pen, the strokes will be thick, just lift it. Just like a person's walking feet, one falls and the other rises, constantly alternating, and the pen keeps pressing in the process of writing. Only in this way can lines with different thicknesses be produced.
Every time you write a stroke, there are three processes: input, writing and receiving. There is a method of "exposing the front" to make the pen tip sharp or square; There is a method of "hiding the front", in which the front enters the pen, the horizontal painting wants to be straight first, and the vertical painting wants to be down first, so that the front of the pen is hidden in the stroke, and the beginning of the stroke is basically round. Learn to "use the pen from the middle" when writing, so that the front tip often runs in the middle of the strokes.
In order to make strokes more powerful, we should learn to use the pen unsmiling, leaving lines in the middle and lines in the middle to avoid glitz. There are "exposed front" (the pen is gradually lifted off the paper, drawing a sharp point, such as hanging the needle vertically, skimming, pressing and hooking) and "hidden front" (the pen tip is retracted into the painting, such as hanging vertically, and the pen tail is round).
