First, the origin and development of skimming points
Apostrophe, as a part of Chinese character strokes, originated in Oracle Bone Inscriptions, and gradually formed a unique form through the evolution of inscriptions on bronze, seal script, official script and regular script. In ancient calligraphy works, we can see apostrophes of various styles, such as Wang Xizhi's running script "Preface to Lanting" and Yan Zhenqing's regular script "Yan Liqin Tablet". The apostrophes in these works have their own merits and become classics in calligraphy art.
Second, the correct way to write apostrophes
1. Start from the top left and bottom right, draw a stroke down gently, and then draw an arc to the bottom left. The upper part of the arc should be slightly round and the lower part should be gradually tapered.
2. Stroke: At the bottom of the arc, turn to the lower right and gradually exert force to make the stroke heavier. In the process of writing, it is necessary to keep the strokes stable and coherent, with moderate strength, and not too big or too small.
3. pen collection: in the lower right direction, the strokes gradually become thinner and stop at one point. Grasp the rhythm when closing the pen, so that the strokes present a natural and smooth aesthetic feeling.
Thirdly, the application of apostrophe in Chinese characters.
Apostrophes are widely used in Chinese characters, such as "person", "mountain" and "water". When writing these characters, we should pay attention to adjusting the direction, length and thickness of apostrophes reasonably according to the structure of the characters, so as to make the glyphs beautiful and harmonious.
Fourth, practice skimming.
1. Comparative copybook: Choose ancient classic Copybook for calligraphy, such as Liu Gongquan's regular script copybook and Yan Zhenqing's regular script copybook. , and practice apostrophe writing against copybooks.
2. Red drawing exercise: buy a red drawing exercise book and practice red drawing with a brush dipped in red ink according to the shape of the model.
3. Practice more: Calligraphy is a skill that needs a lot of practice to master. In the process of learning, we should be patient and practice persistently.
Fifth, the application of apostrophe in calligraphy creation.
In calligraphy creation, the proper use of apostrophes can make the works more artistic. Calligraphy creation should pay attention to the following points:
1. Change: In the writing of apostrophes, the thickness, direction and length of strokes can be appropriately adjusted according to the needs of the work, so that the work is rich in changes.
2. Layout: Reasonably arrange the position of apostrophe in the work, so that it can complement other strokes and glyphs.
3. Rhythm: Master the writing rhythm of apostrophe, so that the strokes are natural, smooth and rhythmic.
4. Artistic conception: Through the writing of apostrophe, the meaning and emotion of the work are expressed, and the artistic conception of the work is enhanced.
