1, read the post. Reading is an important way to acquire knowledge and the first step to learn calligraphy. The first step in practicing calligraphy is to practice your eyes first. The best way to practice your eyes is to read posts.
2. copy. Imitation can also be called tracing red or similar tracing red. If you paint red without the concept of reading posts, it is only a very mechanical action and has little effect. Only when you read the post carefully in the first step and copy it in the second step will you have the effect of cutting wax. The method of copying is relatively simple, and the most important thing is to remember the characteristics and structural characteristics of Chinese characters and pens again in the process of copying.
3, copy the copybook. A copybook is a copybook. Put the copybook aside and watch it write. The more you like it, the better. There is a saying that you can copy the structure with brush strokes. The previous copying training will lay a certain foundation in structure, but it must not be just copying, because only when you get rid of copybooks can you really write a template, which will test your writing ability.
4. Contrast. After writing, you must analyze and compare the differences between your own text and the original post, and don't miss the slightest place, especially in the beginner stage. This action is essential, and it is also an important way to practice your eyesight. Without comparison, we don't know the difference. We can find the differences by comparison, including font, length, size, width, thickness and so on.
Specific steps:
On the basis of practicing bold type, mastering the structure of words and practicing basic skills, you can choose your favorite font to practice. The process of choosing fonts is called post selection. On the basis of selecting posts, it goes through five steps: reading posts, describing posts, copying posts, carrying posts and creating posts. We all know the pronunciation, reading font, structure, strokes, analysis, trying to figure out the stroke characteristics of words and the relationship between strokes.
The word "mouth" is slightly flat, and its horizontal length is twice as long as its vertical length. The middle vertical line is divided into two sections with equal length by the lower horizontal line of the word "Kou", and the upper horizontal line of the word "Kou" is divided into two sections with equal length. This is an interpretation of glyphs and structures. Different fonts and strokes have different characteristics. The changes of strokes in hard pen calligraphy are not obvious, and it is not easy for middle school students to master them, so I won't say much here.
