Running script is a calligraphy style between regular script and cursive script. Those who write more freely and freely, closer to cursive script, are called Xingcao; those who write more upright and steady, closer to regular script, are called Xingkai.
In the process of writing, the movement of the pen is more obvious in various forms of stipples. This movement of the pen often leaves traces between dots and characters. There are traces of mutual involvement, as thin as a gossamer. This is a silk connection.
Running script is the fast writing of regular script and the flow of regular script. After analyzing several groups of characters in regular script and running script, it was found that when writing in regular script and running script, the stipple writing method and the guidelines to be followed when using the pen, such as center front, spread hair, reverse in and out, lift and press the main, hide the front, etc. are all The same, except that the running script is more stretched and flowing when written.
Both size and size. That is, each character appears in different sizes, and the pens of a character are connected to each other. The connections between characters are both real and intentional, broken and connected, and they echo each other.
Retractable and retractable combination. Generally, those with short lines are closed, and those with long lines are released; returning to the front is closed, and flanking is released; most of them are left closing and right opening, upper closing and lowering, but they can also be converted into each other, and it is not ruled out that left opening is closed, right closing, and upper and lowering receive.
Depending density. Generally, it is dense at the top and sparse at the bottom, dense on the left and sparse on the right, dense on the inside and sparse on the outside. The middle palace is tightly knotted. The smaller the blank space for the frame, the better. The smaller the blank space for the circled strokes, the better. In the layout, the word spacing is tight, the line spacing is wide, and the writing is vigorous and colorful.
Blending shades and lightness. Running script writing should be easy, lively and quick, and master the combination of speed and delay, movement and stillness. In the design of ink color, the first character should be thick and the last character should be dry. The lines are long, thin, short and thick, with appropriate weight and alternate shades. It's similar to cursive writing, but not as cursive.
