Running script is a writing style between regular script and cursive script. Write more freely and smoothly, and those close to cursive script are called cursive script; The writing is relatively correct and stable, close to regular script.
In the process of writing, the brush strokes are obviously manifested in various forms of stippling. This brush stroke often leaves a delicate trace between stippling and characters, which is silk thread. Running script is the quick writing of regular script, and it is the stream of regular script.
Through the analysis of several groups of characters in regular script and running script, it is found that when writing in regular script and running script, the writing method of stippling and the principles to be followed when using the pen are consistent, such as centering, laying the pen, pushing the main body and hiding the front, while running script is relatively stretched and smooth.
