How to teach yourself calligraphy? Nowadays, many people want to have personal interests in amateur time walk. We say that everyone can learn calligraphy, but there is a gap between people. After all, the situation is very different. Calligraphy seems easy to master, but it is still difficult. Let's take a look at how to teach ourselves calligraphy.
How to teach yourself calligraphy 1 Based on calligraphy theory, an ancient scholar.
Calligraphy theory has always been an experience and lesson summed up by calligraphers of past dynasties. After hundreds of years and thousands of years of calligrapher's practice, calligraphy theory, which has been spread all over the world, is the only classic rule, so as not to repeat the same mistakes.
Write first, then write.
The essence of calligraphy is writing. At the beginning, it is suggested to study hard from the practical direction, including the basic spelling and stroke order of Chinese characters, as well as elegant and smooth writing content, and not to put the cart before the horse in artistic appreciation.

Successful calligraphers have always been followers, and ancient calligraphy is the principle of calligraphy. Only when the brushwork and structure have a relationship can they be elegant. Long-term persistent copywriting is the most effective and direct shortcut of the ancients. Of course, the paste here is worth imitating. There are many ancient inscriptions, so you need to have an eye. You'd better learn them.
It is suggested to start with the main book.
There are many kinds of ancient calligraphy posts, such as original calligraphy, cursive script, official script, seal script and so on. Where is the best place to start? All along, calligraphers (calligraphers) have their own words and different understandings. I think, relatively speaking, official script is the foundation, and it is more appropriate to start with regular script, official script and seal script:
1. Beginners should pay attention to rules and statutes in order to get on the right track.
The eight methods of regular script (horizontal, vertical, skimming, pressing, pointing, hooking, picking and folding) are complete and the most stringent. With this rope, it is also a strict teaching and learning, and it will definitely make progress. Regular script is as steady as slow motion, one stroke at a time, all in place and standardized. Its stippling and structure are very fine, which can best train the basic kung fu and cultivate the mentality of not floating or impetuous. This is the right way to start. Pan Tianshou, a close friend, put it well: "When you start to learn calligraphy, you must be disciplined and formal, starting with block letters."
2. Beginners should learn calligraphy step by step, and then move quietly to improve efficiency.
If the model is standing, then the weather is stable and quiet. Walking is like walking, grass is like running and sky is like flying. Learn regular script first, then running script and cursive script. It is quiet before moving, which conforms to the operating rules and is more convenient to convert. Therefore, Su Dongpo philosophically said in the Song Dynasty: "Calligraphy is prepared in the official book and overflows in the grass. I can't change books, but I can make grass. I haven't heard Zhuang language yet, but I don't want to say it. " Hins Cheung in the Tang Dynasty even said sternly, "If you are a beginner, you should study real books first, which is not a loss. If you don't learn the real book first, learn the vertical body. If you are a patriarch, you will learn the real body. It is difficult to succeed! "
3. Beginners should start with convenience in order to see the effect as soon as possible.
In the time series of the formation and evolution of Chinese characters, regular script is the last finalized font, and it is the most widely used and popular font today. We are more familiar with its face, so from now on, compared with the beginning of seal script, official script and grass (line), the difficulty of identification is reduced. What's more, learning it will be beneficial to daily use immediately, and there is another gain. Why not?
Writing is the key to learning books.
"brushwork is a method of writing and stippling with a pen" (Shen Lun Shu). "Calligraphy is based on the use of pens, and it also requires hard work to become words. It is not easy to use a pen through the ages "(Thirteen Prefaces to Lanting Collection by Zhao Meng). "The beauty of calligraphy lies in writing. It's time to do what you want, and do it around it. The manipulation is very familiar and ingenious "(Kang Youwei's" Guangyi Ship Double Bows "). For brushwork, the ancients gave high evaluation and great attention, because this is the key to writing. Writing with different pens, or brushing words, or filling words, or drawing ducks, have different effects.
In the process of application, the characteristics of brushwork are lifting, pressing, twisting, turning or making, turning, slowing down and getting sick. In the handwriting (ink), it is light, heavy, round, square, even broken, moist and impetuous. This is the display of artistic style and the profundity of artistic language. One tiny difference is thousands of miles away. The delicacy, richness and complexity of brushwork can not be ignored, and it needs a lot of effort. Master all kinds of writing methods, stippling is more diverse and writing is more vivid. If you can use it freely and skillfully, you can say that you have mastered the key to calligraphy.
Pay attention to the internal strength of practicing calligraphy
Calligraphers in ancient times were all literati, but now "calligraphers" are rampant. When learning calligraphy reaches a certain stage, it finally determines the height of calligrapher or knowledge, and the richness of knowledge determines the artistic height of this person. The so-called word internal strength refers to the study and accumulation of traditional cultures such as Chinese studies and fine arts, which need to be built hard.
Keep studying.
Mi Fei said, "If you don't study for a day, you will feel tired. You think that the ancients didn't read the book and it was abolished. " You can't be cold when you study. The ancients said that the daily class is 3,000, and the daily paste is a necessary way to improve one's artistic level.
As soon as the water arrives, the river channel is formed ―― when the conditions are ripe, success is guaranteed.
He said: "A calligrapher must establish his own family. The purpose of this family is to cast the past and form his own family." The ultimate goal of learning tradition well is to transform and use tradition flexibly. This "transformation" is a natural and natural process, which can be casual.
How to teach yourself calligraphy? 2. Self-study calligraphy, starting with posts. Choose a copybook you like. It is recommended to learn regular script, which is the foundation. Generally choose Tang Kai. For example, Ou Yangxun's inscription on Liquan in Jiucheng Palace, Yan Zhenqing's multi-pagoda monument, and Liu Gongquan's mysterious pagoda monument.
Test what font do you like to use?
If you like regular script, you should study more. If you like official script, you must learn official script. If you like running script, you should study more. But regular script still needs to be studied more, which is the basis of writing orthography. Pay attention to details, words are composed of strokes, so we should carefully consider how the writer combined strokes into so many words, which are still so beautiful. When self-studying, we must concentrate on learning word by word, such as where to learn Chinese characters, where to end strokes, how to arrange strokes in the design of bookshelf structure, etc.
Learn to compare, improve your sense of inferiority, compare bad words with copybooks when you are unhappy, find out the shortcomings and correct them. This is the way and method to improve yourself quickly.
Don't be greedy. Don't make a few crosses a day, and a party a day will satisfy the self-taught people. Learn one thing and make it beautiful, and that is the level! Write more phrases on the basis of word practice. This practice promotes the purpose of learning by analogy.
Communicate with experts more. Learn from their detour experience, correct their own detour time, and achieve the goal of absorbing other people's experience and improving themselves as soon as possible. The most important thing is to persist and practice every day!
Matters needing attention
1. Post more, read more, practice more and write more!
2. You should stick to it!
