Calligraphy should be more of a life and a hobby to kill time. Just like painting, it takes a lot of time and energy to become a person's main occupation, just like telling stories. No one likes it, and no one can write two strokes of calligraphy by himself. Real painters and calligraphers have to practice a lot and settle down for a long time before they can have their own place in the vast world of calligraphy.
This kind of calligraphy is not recommended as the main means of livelihood, but can be made into a hobby. Because if you want to be a calligrapher, you don't have to practice hard by yourself, but you need the guidance of a famous teacher. But we don't have a special degree or major to practice calligraphy in China. You can only rely on opportunities. If there is no corresponding interpersonal relationship and background at home, it is difficult to find a particularly prestigious calligrapher to guide you and make you a qualitative change.
The main way to make money is to set up cram schools, calligraphy practice classes, or be a tutor. However, this requires an opportunity, not something you can do if you want to. You just want to say that you need your parents to be tutors, and then you happen to know the news, so you can have the opportunity to develop your own career and expand your calligraphy career. Therefore, it still depends on your own efforts. Most importantly, your calligraphy foundation is not called calligraphy, because you can write two words. Calligraphy is a profound artistic activity, which can't be learned in a year or two.
Therefore, it is suggested to find a suitable career that you can engage in for life. It is also difficult to regard calligraphy as the foundation of one's economic life and as one's own organization, which requires much more efforts than other industries.
