The most basic activity of learning calligraphy is writing, and the primary purpose of writing is to record things and communicate feelings. The minimum requirement is to write the words in a standard, neat and clear way, so that people will be happy to accept it. If the characters are written in a disorganized manner, or even if they are randomly made up as they please, it will be like interpreting the "heavenly book" and cannot be recognized by the readers, thus losing its practical value. Some people think that writing with a brush is not as convenient as using a hard pen. Hard pens can completely replace the brush, and you can only learn calligraphy when you write with brushes. Some people think that calligraphy is the preserve of "geniuses" and "we are not meant to learn calligraphy." Especially some older friends, bound by the outdated thinking that "people over thirty do not learn art", think that it is too late to learn calligraphy. Some people think that calligraphy is mysterious and unpredictable, the spirit cannot be described, the form is difficult to express, and good things are difficult to achieve. All these ideas are undesirable, because there are rules as long as writing is concerned, especially when there are many occasions where there is no "facade" of calligraphy, which is absolutely unacceptable. For example, trademarks, advertisements, slogans, couplets, calligraphy and painting banners, etc. are all inseparable from calligraphy. It is undeniable that it is convenient and quick to use pens, ballpoint pens and other tools to set calligraphy, but no matter what tool is used to write, the rules for writing are basically the same as using a brush, so no matter how you write, you should learn calligraphy. Regarding the age of learning calligraphy, there is no doubt that there are great advantages in starting to learn calligraphy from a young age or a teenager. However, there are also many advantages for older people to learn calligraphy: they have knowledge, life, experience, quick understanding, deep feelings, and good expression. Wait, young people are incomparable. As for "genius", it specifically refers to "a person with this kind of talent". Any intelligence and wisdom are obtained through enthusiasm, diligence and scientific learning. "Nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to climb." "Be determined and don't be afraid of failure." A calligrapher answered a student's question with a few phrases that were very instructive, concise and clear, and endlessly memorable. Asked: "What is the best age to learn calligraphy?" Answer: "Any age is suitable starting from literacy." Asked: "Can I become a calligrapher?" Answer: "Do you think you can - you definitely can!" Learn calligraphy Just like learning other arts, as long as we don't doubt our abilities, have confidence, enthusiasm, and use the right methods, we will definitely achieve success. Don’t be intimidated by the metaphysics of some monopolies. They describe calligraphy as miraculous, teach abstraction, neglect the basics and seek the end, and are ignorant of the closed circle, which hinders subsequent learning. In fact, calligraphy is like "window paper", which also "breaks with one poke". Its charm can be characterized, its image can be expressed, its techniques can be achieved, and its composition can be achieved. "Going up to the hall and entering the house" is within reach.
