First of all, we should realize that writing calligraphy is no different from other jobs, especially in art, and it is normal to encounter bottlenecks. People who practice calligraphy all the year round know that writing is so strange. Sometimes, the more I want to write a word, the brush in my hand just won't work. Sometimes when it comes to handy, the word is clever and interesting, and it also illustrates a truth. Writing needs peace of mind. The more eager you are, the more haste makes waste. So when we feel the bottleneck, we can't write any more.
It is said that art is interlinked, so we can use this time to enrich our knowledge in other fields, and it is hard to say that one day we can show different aesthetics in calligraphy works.
Speaking of which, it reminds me of the great calligrapher Zhang Xu. The world only knows that his cursive script is very good, but they don't know that he has another hobby, that is, he likes to wander in the street and observe people and nature in this way. I hope to find a better way for my calligraphy expression.
Legend has it that once, he saw two people fighting in the street. He didn't try to stop the fight, but watched with relish. Later, when he came home, he remembered the two men. When you came, I was always interested in fighting with a pole, so I turned these movements into cursive strokes, thus breaking through my own expression. It's a windfall.
A good calligrapher must be a "saint" who is proficient in life. Poetry and painting, raising flowers to feed birds, playing chess and painting, even dancing, sports, food and so on. , let him indulge in this infinitely. When his accomplishment improves with the passage of time, his calligraphy attainments will reach the peak. Isn't there a saying that "Kung Fu is above poetry"? If you want to learn poetry creation well, you must ask for material from life. If you want to write good words, you must ask for material from life. Only in this way can we successfully pass the bottleneck period and usher in the spring of our own calligraphy writing.
