There are some painting techniques, radical techniques and structural techniques in the running script, as follows:
First, stippling techniques:
In order to write quickly, stippling is often omitted. At the same time of omission, the gesture is more vivid and interesting. Common omissions include omitting hooks and turning vertical hooks into vertical ones. Common substitutes are horizontal, vertical, left-handed, left-handed, horizontal-handed, "mouth" and so on. For example, the word "clothes" is vertical. In the stroke, the pen front is first hidden, the pen front is turned down and pressed, and the pen front is returned to collect the pen, or the pen front is left down and reflected with the lower horizontal tie.
second, radical techniques:
Chinese characters are all combined characters except single characters. The radicals of Chinese characters are the main components of all Chinese characters. Therefore, it is relatively easy to get started when practicing the structure of Chinese characters, starting with radicals. The lines of running script are relatively smooth and unrestrained. The pen is more flexible, or broken or connected, and can change freely. When writing the words with upper and lower structures, you should write "Gu" and "Ying".
Third, structural techniques:
The shelf of Chinese characters refers to the proportion of each part, the structure refers to the combination law of Chinese characters, and the layout is the trend and echo between the parts, with a stable center of gravity and symmetrical density. Running script is a little faster than regular script, so its strokes are mostly fluid, and its strokes and structure no longer maintain a certain pattern.
Principles and characteristics of running script:
1. Principles:
