The cursive script is a wild and unconstrained representative, writing at will, and the impression of ordinary people on it is messy. Huai Su became a monk in his early years, and found the pleasure of writing in the boring time in the temple, so he began to practice calligraphy from then on until he became everyone. Huai Su's cursive script is a model of later generations, which has a great influence on later generations. Cursive writing gives people a complex feeling, and it is extremely difficult to identify every word carefully. Cursive script pays attention to artistic conception, momentum, external and internal performance. There is a trace of detail in Huai Su's cursive script, and the handwriting outlined gives people a gentle but turbulent feeling.
Cursive script doesn't need strokes like other fonts, it only needs simple outlines, but it doesn't lack femininity. Huai Su is good at cursive script, and his cursive script can be heard in one go. But Huai Su's cursive script is different from other cursive scripts. Even if his cursive script is written in one go, both the inner literati atmosphere and the outer majestic atmosphere can be realized. His handwriting is thin and his strokes are not as thick as others, giving people a feeling of intoxication. The momentum of cursive script must be shown, so Huai Su's cursive script is vigorous and powerful, with a tall and straight pen tip, just like waves, with great momentum. Huai Su's cursive script combines rigidity with softness, and there is an inherent technique in its ever-changing nature, that is, statutes. There are many representative works of Huai Su's cursive script, in which he is free and easy, delicate, majestic and gentle.
As a great calligrapher, Huai Su will pay more sweat and time than others in the process of practice.
After coming to the temple, he found the pleasure of practicing calligraphy and started his career. Because there was a shortage of paper at that time, Huai Su tried hard to find a place to practice calligraphy, including clothes, walls and boards. Because of hard training, the board has been used for a long time and has been worn out. In order to practice calligraphy, he tried his best to make a tool that can be scrubbed so that it can be reused. It wasn't long before he came up with a good idea, that is, banana leaves, so he planted many banana trees in the open space of the temple. When the banana tree grows up, he can practice writing with banana leaves. When he meets smaller banana leaves, he is still reluctant to pick them so that they can grow up and practice writing more. He cherishes every opportunity to practice calligraphy. Every time he practices calligraphy, he has no distractions. He only concentrates on practicing calligraphy and carefully understands the meaning of every word.
He never misses every opportunity to learn, and when he meets everyone, he will humbly ask others for advice. At first, because he was not familiar with the structure of each word, he would recite the strokes of each word carefully and then write them one by one. The information at that time was very precious. Huai Su cherishes every stroke of calligraphy practice. He didn't get a new pen until the hair on the nib fell off. Over time, he used countless brushes. These details are enough to witness the process of Huai Su's hard writing. Perseverance and hard work bear witness to Huai Su's efforts.
Huai Su chose to become a monk at the age of 10, and later became a famous calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty. He is most famous for his weeds and is called a sage in the grass.
