The center refers to the pen used in the center, which means that the pen tip always stays in the middle of the stroke trajectory and runs vertically downward. The lines written in the center are full and powerful, with a three-dimensional sense. The ancients said: "Make the pen heart always move in stippling", that is, the center refers to the pen.
The center pen can't be too dry, and it can't be finished at once. You should lick the pen at any time as needed and keep it "conical". Therefore, for the center, there are two kinds of calligraphy effects: one is "folding hairpin"; Second: "Leak marks". The lines of the two special effects give people a sense of beauty, but the charm is completely different, one is "charming" and the other is "vigorous". The former writes fast and the latter writes slowly. Of course, deliberately fast or slow in writing can't achieve the goal. This is also related to the skill of calligraphers.
The reason for emphasizing that use of brush as the central stroke are:
1, which is conducive to the familiarity and control of writing tools. When the center holds the pen, the pen is soft and your hand needs constant adjustment. Push the pen forward or left, eg to hide the front. Drag the pen backward or right to master the thick and fast lines.
2. No matter how big the word is written, it is conducive to a wider range of activities and a better grasp of the overall font. When writing the checklist, you need a wide activity space, and the center can develop good writing space consistency with pens. If you can write big, medium and small characters, you can have a very good exercise effect regardless of font size and structure or creative shelf.
3. The central pen is the basic skill of calligraphy introduction. When practicing calligraphy, if you can use the center flexibly, you can hide the front, the reverse front, the side front, the exposed front, etc., and the strokes will naturally be solved. Learning calligraphy has made rapid progress and improved efficiency.
