How do I create calligraphy?

In my opinion, to create a successful calligraphy work, we must first meet some basic conditions. First, a solid foundation and strong strength are the most basic elements of calligraphy creation. Without it, calligraphy creation would be impossible, and it would become a passive water and a tree without roots. With a solid foundation and strong strength, creation is possible. To create calligraphy works, we must have a strong desire to create and an impulse and passion to try, so as to enter the role as soon as possible. In the concrete implementation of the creative process, we should not only follow the ancient law, but also dare to break through the dogma; Don't stick to the rules, copy mechanically, copy the ancients or clone modern people, but highlight their artistic personality and style. Because works without individuality are not art. Only by creating according to one's own understanding can artistic creation have distinct personality and vitality. Second, we should selectively participate in social calligraphy activities. Nowadays, there are many calligraphy and painting activities, exhibitions and competitions everywhere, which requires us to participate selectively and purposefully, because one's energy is limited. To this end, I set myself a principle: actively participate in exhibitions and competitions organized by China Book Association and Beijing Book Association; Similar activities organized by other social organizations or other provinces and cities and some invitation exhibitions. , as the case may be. In this way, it is easy to concentrate, highlight key points and create works with certain weight. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the fact that no matter what works we send to the exhibition, no matter what level of exhibition, we must represent our own style and level, and we must never make do with it, that is, we must be responsible for ourselves, especially the audience. Third, we should have a broad vision and extensive knowledge. Calligraphy creation is different from learning calligraphy. When learning calligraphy, you can learn one template or multiple templates to achieve the purpose of exercise and improvement. Therefore, you only need to learn or learn images, whether they are similar in shape or spirit. Calligraphy creation is an artistic re-creation. You need to write works with your own wisdom and aesthetics to realize your creation of calligraphy art. Therefore, we must not be limited to or satisfied with simply writing a certain style or a certain post, but express our creativity on the basis of a certain font. Therefore, calligraphy creation must have comprehensive qualities in many aspects. According to my understanding and experience, broadening one's horizons is the premise of calligraphy creation. Vision includes two aspects: on the one hand, ancient inscriptions, we should read more, write more, possess more information, learn more from them, and draw nutrition from the ancients; On the other hand, we should read more works of exhibitions and competitions, learn as much as possible about the trends and information of contemporary calligraphy through various channels and ways, and master the concepts and trends of modern calligraphy, but don't blindly pursue fashion and cater to the times. As long as the above two points are achieved, calligraphy creation can be solved easily. Calligraphy creation is a complicated process, which requires the author to have a high comprehensive analysis, judgment, choice and innovation ability, otherwise the creation will not succeed. Therefore, while studying calligraphy, I also pay attention to strengthening all kinds of cultivation and practice outside the words to improve my overall quality. Fourth, several points for attention in creation. First, choose the writing content that suits you, which is also one of the key factors for the success or failure of creation. Once the content is determined, don't shake and change it easily, and stick to it no matter how difficult it is. The second is to be familiar with every word in the work, especially those words that are not often written or poorly written, because this will affect the success or failure of creation. Third, we should pay attention to the creative mentality, adjust our thinking to the best state, be highly concentrated and have no distractions. After a work is finished, I am satisfied with it. Please ask more experts and teachers to criticize and correct me, solicit opinions, and then create, strive for perfection and complete the creation.
