Characteristics of European calligraphy: both square and round, with squares as the main focus, strong stippling, and concentrated writing. The strokes should be straight. The right side of the horizontal painting is slightly higher than the left side, and the middle section of the long horizontal painting is thinner. Vertical drawings are upright. If the hanging needle is vertical, press it slightly before striking, so that the end of the pen is subtle and powerful. When drawing, the strokes are often made with a hidden edge, either square or round. The strokes are tilted out and pressed at the front, making the lower part slightly thicker and making the strokes appear vigorous. In Na paintings, the flat strokes are often folded to hide the edge, while the diagonal strokes are mostly used to reveal the edge. Whether it is flat or diagonal, the stroke should be square at the foot, and the stroke should be raised to the right. The arcs are very small. The structural characteristics of the European body are both steep and steep, yet rigorous and neat. It remains steady on the side, compact yet sparse.
Characteristics of Liu style calligraphy: Liu Gongquan’s calligraphy is as famous as Yan Zhenqing, and is also called Yan Liu. The characteristics of Liu style calligraphy are sharp edges and corners, strong bones, sparse, open, elegant and square style.
Xue Ji is inferior to Chu Suiliang, his pen is thin and his characters are smooth.
Li Yong's calligraphy starts from the "two kings", which can penetrate the inside and come out of the outside. The glyphs are high on the left and low on the right, and the writing force is stretched and vigorous, giving people a sharp and hearty feeling. He once said: "Those who resemble me will want to be vulgar, and those who imitate me will die." Su Dongpo and Mi Yuanzhang both absorbed some of his characteristics. In the Yuan Dynasty, Zhao Mengfu also tried his best to pursue his style of writing and learned the "elegant and elegant" calligraphy realm from him.
Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, was not only good at painting, but also had high attainments in calligraphy. Zhao Ji's calligraphy was based on learning from Xue Yao and Chu Suiliang, and created a unique "thin gold style", which is thin and sharp, with side edges like orchid and bamboo, which complements the meticulous and colorful calligraphy of his paintings. However, Song Huizong's calligraphy has the shortcoming of being soft and frivolous, which may be caused by the times and his own artistic accomplishment.
