The main points and essentials of writing calligraphy

Since ancient times, many writing methods have been handed down through the exploration and practice of calligraphers, mainly including "double hook method", "single fishing method", "wrist returning method", "stirrup pulling method" and "phoenix eye method".

The five-character formula of "falling", "taking the lead", "hook", "case" and "arriving" in writing is also called drawing pen. Pen is the basic method of calligraphy. In a broad sense, using a brush refers to the method of writing calligraphy works with a brush, including the method of holding a brush and the method of lifting a brush. In a narrow sense, brushwork refers to the method of sending pens when writing points, paintings and characters in books.
