Research on brushwork in calligraphy teaching

Do novices find brushwork particularly difficult to master? In fact, it's just that everyone is a little unfamiliar with the basic essentials of brushwork when they first learn calligraphy, so they will find it difficult to get started. The following six simple, practical and interesting methods can help you quickly master some basic brushwork essentials in the introductory stage.

To learn calligraphy, you need to practice the ability to control the pen, swing your forearm and wrist as much as possible, and keep your hand and pen relatively stable.

On the basis of the above swing, keep the center and try to hide the front, so that the lines written are symmetrical. You can start with a straight line and then try to touch an arc, but you must keep the line symmetrical and smooth.

With the practice of lines, the pen and fingertips will gradually form a tacit understanding. On this basis, you can add promotion to make the lines more saturated and diverse, but it is important to keep the center pen.

The practice of lifting pressure is followed by the practice of turning, which is divided into many kinds, including the comprehensive application of some brushwork such as hiding front, exposing front and lifting pressure.

We have all learned the center, the hidden front, the exposed front and the pressure-lifting turning point. We can try to do some combination exercises more deeply, but we should always keep the center writing.

After learning some basic skills of line brush, I will talk to you about the correct posture of line brush.
