Calligrapher's story: study hard and learn ink like rice.

Concentrate on studying ink for food.

When Wang Xizhi was about five or six years old, Mrs. Bai Wei studied calligraphy for her teacher. His calligraphy has made rapid progress. At the age of seven, he was famous in the local area for his writing, which was very popular and praised by his predecessors.

When Wang Xizhi was 1 1, he read The Story of the Pen, which only adults could understand. He got up every morning and practiced writing in the dark according to the method described in Pen Shuo. He was fascinated. After a while, I looked at my handwriting, and there were some changes compared with what I wrote before. One day, his teacher, Mrs. Wei, was taken aback and said, "The child must have seen the secret of calligraphy. I found that his calligraphy has recently reached the level of an adult. In this way, my child's future achievements in calligraphy will definitely drown my reputation. "

Wang Xizhi was not complacent because of the teacher's praise. He worked harder and harder, even forgetting to eat and sleep.

Once at lunch, bookish, he brought his favorite garlic paste and steamed bread and urged him to eat it quickly several times. He still didn't even look up, as if he didn't hear, absorbed in reading posts and writing. The meal was cold, so Jibang had to ask Wang Xizhi's mother to persuade him to eat. Mother came to the study, only to find Xihe holding a steamed bread stained with ink and sending it to her mouth, making her mouth black. It turned out that when Xi Zhi was eating steamed stuffed buns, he was still looking at the words and thinking about how to write them in his mind. As a result, he mistook the ink for garlic. Mother couldn't help laughing when she saw this scene. Wang Xizhi still doesn't know what's going on Hearing his mother's laughter, he also said, "today's mashed garlic is really fragrant!" "

Wang Xizhi persisted for decades, studied hard, kept posting, and practiced very solid kung fu, which laid the foundation and paved the way for his future development.

Wang Xizhi's position in the field of calligraphy is unparalleled. Through the above short story, we can also see how much effort and sweat he put into his calligraphy learning path. Therefore, if you want to achieve your own calligraphy, you must go through the road of hard study and hard practice.
