Former traveler Lin Gong teaches you how to practice calligraphy (4) How to distinguish Jianghu style? How to practice Chinese calligraphy in Jianghu style?

If you want to practice practical calligraphy, there is an ultimate question, a very direct and essential question in calligraphy practice: How to write a new character that has never been written before? And can you use what you have learned to write with maturity? We will not mention this issue for now.

1. What does Jianghu style mean? How to distinguish (define)?

Jianghu style

In fact, there is no encyclopedia entry for this term, which means that it is a new title created by a person in the Jianghu. Just like Internet neologisms, they are not professional terms.

According to my personal understanding, the Jianghu system can be defined according to the following three standards:

1. Have you received systematic training and theoretical study from academic institutions and professional teachers, or have you There is no systematic theoretical self-study. Is the personal theoretical system input comprehensive and the output professional and logical?

In fact, you only need to ask him or her to test whether it is a martial art or not, and you will know. Generally speaking, Jianghu practitioners despise theoretical learning, and many have never even learned common sense at all, and they don’t understand anything about writing skills. It's just unconscious writing. If you write regular script quickly, you think it's running script. I can't tell the difference between running script and regular script, and I can't figure out the difference between soft pen and hard pen, so now many people who have practiced calligraphy and post calligraphy are also in Jianghu style. It’s because the theoretical logic is not up to par.

Here I would like to tell you the two major differences between running script and regular script:

Many martial artists have not learned the basic theory, so they must not understand the above two points. , so when choosing a copybook, you will always choose a field-shaped grid, a square grid, a square grid, a square grid, a square grid, a square grid, and a square grid. The correct choice should be for the practice book to be horizontal lines. Only in that kind of post can the real meaning be written. If someone forces you to put your running script in a Tianzi grid and repeatedly analyzes the strokes, and also asks you to force your running script into squares the same size as regular script, it can basically be considered Jianghu style. So if you look at Pang Zhonghua's calligraphy, he basically writes it in running script as regular script, so it can be said to be Jianghu style.

2. Can you apply the comprehensive abilities learned systematically to writing, such as the mastery and application of penmanship, and the understanding and adjustment of structure. I think it is very clear and important to use professional application as the standard for demarcation.

Because I have observed a lot of Jianghu style, basically the use of calligraphy is a major unconscious use. In addition, the theory has never been systematically studied, and I don’t understand a lot of common sense. Even the most basic two aspects of running script and regular script. I can't understand the big difference. I have never systematically learned the rules and applications of calligraphy. Of course, the characters written are Jianghu style.

3. Another factor that can be considered is whether it has been recognized by a professional authority. For example, book associations at the county and city levels should not be identified by whether they have won heavyweight awards. If we measure it by winning heavyweight awards, then 80% of the people in society who have practiced calligraphy but have not won heavyweight awards are Jianghu calligraphers.

But here comes the problem. It is very difficult for you to get the opportunity to identify the top authorities, and many of the authorities three or four levels below are trying to sell others. For example, the level of various local book associations No, how do you think you are not a member of the Jianghu community? Nowadays, many competitions give you prizes after you pay the fee. That's really it. Everyone has heard of the hidden rules.

The concept proposed by Lin Gong’s practical cursive calligraphy is:

Being able to write mature and practical cursive calligraphy is not just good-looking calligraphy!

Lin Gong can clearly tell you this mature standard of practical hard-pen cursive writing:

To be honest here, many teachers’ handwriting is not written by me. good. I am really not bragging, so many teachers’ handwriting is ugly, immature and quack-like. Including many words from academic masters. If you go and observe, you will know that I am not talking nonsense. But in fact, academic performance is not ultimately determined by the maturity and beauty of words, but by the level of academic ability.

So friends, it’s no big deal to write about Jianghu style now. Keep learning and improving! Start studying systematically from basic theories.

Just like the article above about Lin Gong, you will get it after learning and practicing! As for how to further learn, of course it’s through communication on WeChat with LinGong! !
