Basic essentials of calligraphy introduction
If you want to write China's calligraphy well, you must master the brushwork and calligraphy.
Writing:
Su Dongpo said: "There is no fixed way to put pen to paper, but it should be open-minded." Five-finger pen holding method: hold the pen holder with the fingertips of thumb and forefinger (appropriate height) to ensure that the pen holder does not fall off; The middle finger is placed on the outside of the pen under the index finger, which not only strengthens the power of the index finger to pinch the pen, but also plays the role of hooking the pen in; When the nail of the ring finger touches the inside of the pen, it plays the role of pushing the pen outward; The little finger is attached to the lower part of the finger belly of the ring finger to help the ring finger push the pen outward. When holding a pen, as the ancients said, it is convenient to carry a pen. When learning books, you should often practice holding the pen, returning the hook, pushing out and rotating the pen holder (plus the role of the wrist) and drawing straight lines and arcs. The level of writing and whether to hang your wrist or elbow depends on the size of the written words. Small print low, wrist pillow. Hold high the big characters and hang your wrists; No matter how big you are, you need to hang your elbow.
Word method:
Calligraphy is a line modeling art. The so-called brushwork mainly talks about how to shape ideal lines (stippling).
Lift and press-write by the pen, the strokes will be thick, just lift it. Just like a person's walking feet, one falls and the other rises, constantly alternating, and the pen keeps pressing in the process of writing. Only in this way can lines with different thicknesses be produced.
Every time you write a stroke, there are three processes: input, writing and receiving. There is a method of "exposing the front" to make the pen tip sharp or square; There is a method of "hiding the front", in which the front enters the pen, the horizontal painting wants to be straight first, and the vertical painting wants to be down first, so that the front of the pen is hidden in the stroke, and the beginning of the stroke is basically round. Learn to "use the pen from the middle" when writing, so that the front tip often runs in the middle of the strokes. In order to make strokes more powerful, we should learn to use the pen unsmiling, leaving lines in the middle and lines in the middle to avoid glitz. There are "exposed front" (the pen is gradually lifted off the paper, drawing a sharp point, such as hanging the needle vertically, skimming, pressing and hooking) and "hidden front" (the pen tip is retracted into the painting, such as hanging vertically, and the pen tail is round).
Knot-also known as knot or shelf structure. Mr. Qi Gong once pointed out that to write a brush, it is necessary to grasp the structure of the pen holder and practice the characteristics of strokes. Frame structure is more important than stippling. Words with good spacing are not prominent in stroke characteristics and pleasing to the eye; Not the other way around. Therefore, it is very important to study and master the structural rules of words carefully. The so-called "beginner distribution, but seeking fairness".
Calligraphy learning steps
1. Choose a suitable tool, such as a pen for hard pen or an artistic 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.
