Basic skills of hard pen calligraphy

Hard pen calligraphy is divided into hard pen calligraphy art and practical hard pen calligraphy. The former mainly emphasizes artistry, while the latter mainly emphasizes practicality. Next, I will bring you the basic skills of hard pen calligraphy. Welcome to read.

First writing posture

Correct writing posture is the premise of writing well. It can not only make the hand, eyes and brain cooperate more organically, but also better train and develop the writing ability, while keeping the body unaffected.

Generally, writing with a pen is in a sitting position. The correct sitting posture is: head should be straight, body should be straight, arms should be relaxed, feet should be flat, and chest should not touch the edge of the table. Because the pen is small, observation during writing is more important. Generally, the position of the pen is slightly to the right, so don't put it in front to avoid blocking the line of sight. But if it is too far to the right, it is easy to write crooked words or form bad habits in the long run, which is easy to cause strabismus. When writing pen characters, only the fingers and wrists are moving. Generally, only the wrist method is used, that is, the elbows are placed flat on the desktop, and the pen is transported by finger force and part of wrist force, and it cannot move in a circle with the extension and recovery of stippling. Keep your eyes about a foot away from the paper (see figure 1).

The most common incorrect writing posture is as follows, which must be overcome:

1. Buried in the neck, too close to the paper. It is easy to make the neck and eyes tired and cause myopia.

2. Hold your chin with your left hand and tilt your head. If you write like this, you can't achieve accurate strokes and neat row spacing, and it will also cause strabismus.

3. The paper is tilted and bent backward. This posture is not beautiful. Once you get used to it, it will cause hunchback and seriously damage your health.

4. cross your legs and shake when you write. When one foot touches the ground, the arm load increases and it is easy to get tired. Shake your feet while writing, it is neither beautiful nor elegant to write.

The second writing method

The correct writing method is the key factor to write good words. The writing method of steel (lead) pen is "three-finger writing". The specific requirements are: hold the pen beside the right thumb, under the thumb of the index finger and on the upper side of the first section of the middle finger, with the index finger slightly lower and the thumb slightly higher, and the front end of the thumb is 2.5 ~ 3 cm away from the pen tip. The ring finger and the little finger naturally bend together and press on the middle finger. Five fingers should closely rely on and coordinate their efforts. The front end of the little finger does not touch the palm, and the first and second joints of the little finger and the lower side of the palm contact the paper. The top half of the pen should rest on the joint between the index finger root and the palm, not on the tiger's mouth. The pen holder makes an angle of about 45 degrees with the paper. Angle, the pen can't be vertical or left (see Figure 2). Don't write too tightly, or you can't write freely; Don't be too loose, or your fingers will be overwhelmed.

The most common incorrect writing methods are:

1. The forefinger bends and hooks the palm, and the thumb presses the first joint of the forefinger. This kind of writing makes it difficult for the pen to move freely when writing, and it can't write the weight of the strokes, and it can't reflect the vitality and charm of the strokes.

2. The middle finger, ring finger and little finger are close to the palm, and the palm is not empty, so it is difficult for the fingers to be flexible when writing.

3. The ring finger bends to the palm of your hand, and the right side of the front end of the little finger touches the paper as all the supporting points, so writing is very unstable, easy to swing left and right, and difficult to write correctly.

4. The pen is at the wrong angle, so write vertically. In this way, the pen tip loses its elasticity, it can't write harmonious strokes, and it is easy to cut the paper.

5. The pen tip is written backwards. This is often because the pen tip is too thick or the water comes out too fast at first, and then it becomes a habit. Some write with the side of the nib, and only one nib falls off the paper. Writing backwards and horizontally has poor elasticity, which not only makes it impossible to write light and heavy strokes, but also easily cuts the paper and affects the writing mood.

Therefore, we must follow the correct writing method, otherwise, it is difficult to see the effect.

The third writing method.

How to write with a steel (lead) pen has certain methods and rules. The key to writing with a steel (lead) pen is lightness, quickness, conciseness and liveliness. The method of writing is roughly as follows:

1. Set is simple and clear. Write strokes with a pen. Simply switch the pen on and off. Just put the pen on the paper and close it from beginning to end. But in order to be accurate, it requires a clear distinction. The so-called "light" means that the intensity is small and the strokes are light; The so-called "heavy" means that the force is slightly larger and the strokes are heavier. With the subtle changes in the thickness of strokes, it can produce a smart charm. (See Figure 3)

2. There are fast and slow, slippery and astringent. When you write a stroke with a pen, you can't write at a uniform speed, but you should be quick and slow, and then you should be quick and slow, so that the lines of the strokes you write can be smooth and rigid, with different textures. (See Figure 4)

3. Correcting Fiona Fang's mistakes, combining rigidity with softness. To write vivid and individual strokes, it is necessary to write with curves and straightness, directions and backs, lightness and heaviness, roundness and roundness, and try to avoid combining rigidity with softness. The strokes written in this way can be both rigid and flexible.

4. Coherent response, radiant. In order to write the words vividly, the strokes and lines written must not be isolated from each other, but with the help of the changes of strokes' starting and ending, the strokes can be tilted up and down, looked around left and right, and coherent before and after, so that all strokes can become an organic whole. Qi and blood are interlinked, and words have vitality. This is an important factor in brushwork skills. In specific writing, different fonts have different requirements for writing. As far as regular script characters are concerned, the requirements of the beginning and end of strokes have implicit meanings.

In short, to write steel (lead) strokes well, we must first write good strokes, and we must master the correct strokes; We should be good at controlling the strength and speed of strokes, and pay attention to the straightness and coherence of strokes, so as to make the strokes rich in light and heavy, smooth and Fiona Fang, long and short stretches, straight breaks, leaning over and so on, thus creating a sense of jumping, rhythm and rhythm, creating colorful and modal strokes and achieving better aesthetic effects.
