Is the calligraphy dictionary useful?
It should be said that you have misunderstood the usage of the dictionary. Calligraphy dictionary is the integration of a master's words or a font (true cursive script). If the word structure is unknown, it can be solved by looking it up in the dictionary. Calligraphy is not only a method of writing, but also a method of composition. The method of composition itself contains the calligrapher's mentality, charm and technique. Only by looking at the whole calligraphy work and trying to figure it out completely can we gradually gain experience. With the development of calligraphy today, our predecessors have left us a lot of precious heritage, which represents the highest achievement of their calligraphy. Now copying these calligraphy works can avoid many detours and achieve twice the result with half the effort. Therefore, calligraphy can't be separated from copying calligraphy works, not just copying dictionaries, no matter in the initial stage or the improvement stage.
