Can I learn calligraphy at the age of 6? Learn hard pen or soft pen first. thank you

In principle, it is possible. 6-8 years old should be a good age for children to learn calligraphy. The purpose of children's calligraphy practice is not "calligraphy", but to master the stippling and structure of Chinese characters and write correctly.

It is easier to write with a hard pen, which can keep children in a good state of interest. At any time, by comparing and encouraging him before and after practicing calligraphy, his business can be further improved. But after several years of practice, some children can say that their handwriting is beautiful, but it is difficult to improve it. Why is this?

Chinese characters are not an independent combination of stippling, and there is another very important feature that parents often ignore: "demeanor." Putting words with a stick is not brilliant. This kind of genius, between strokes, between parts, between parts and the whole, between words, all take care of each other. With reflection, words can "live". The best tool to understand and master these relationships is a soft pen (writing brush).

Unlike the hard pen, the brush strokes are light, heavy, sudden, frustrated, rising, closing, turning, folding, returning, taking, returning and pointing, which the hard pen can't understand at first. Through a period of brush calligraphy practice, the child began to have an experience, and his words will gradually "live".

Is it true that when the calligraphy is finished, the hard pen is finished? Not exactly. However, when he mastered the writing style of brush and went back to practice hard pen writing, he would naturally apply the writing style of brush to hard pen writing, and he would soon understand how to realize the charm of brush with hard pen, so as to achieve the purpose of practicing pen. But also has an inestimable effect on his later aesthetic ability and the improvement of calligraphy art.

1. Choose a suitable tool, such as a pen for hard pen or an art pen, and choose wool, wolf hair or a mixture of wool and rabbit hair as the writing brush according to your own learning foundation. Generally, Olin Dan or Hero can be used as ink, and thicker ink is recommended for brush calligraphy ink, such as Yidege. Paper selection (pen can use hard paper with good water absorption, brush can use rough paper or old newspaper).

2. Copying copybooks: Friends who have never studied calligraphy can practice according to their favorite copybooks. Generally, hard pen and brush calligraphy have one thing in common-that is, the shelf structure of words is similar, and the fonts will not be ugly if they are well structured. Therefore, the choice of copybook is more critical.

3. Exercise: first observe the structural order, understand the brushwork structure, and then understand the brushwork. Keep practicing for an hour every day.

4. You have to understand the structure of pasting words with your heart, imitate them first, and keep practicing until you are proficient.

5. With the foundation, you can begin to practice writing: it is the overall layout, thickness and size of a word, which can make people feel the charm.
