? As a calligraphy learner, your relationship with calligraphy is actually your relationship with the world. The problems you encounter in the process of learning calligraphy may also be the problems you face in your life.
0 1/ Why should I learn calligraphy?
? Growing up, I was the one whose handwriting was particularly ugly. I still remember when I was in primary school, because my handwriting was too ugly, the teacher tore up all my homework and wrote it again. I don't seem to have a special feeling about writing, but I have been instilled with the idea that writing well is very important, and writing well will add points to my life. In retrospect, I became attached to calligraphy and stepped into the kingdom of calligraphy. It should be in last summer vacation that I was amazed by the official script written by a sister in my circle of friends, so I immediately found a calligraphy teacher to start learning official script. Think of it this way. I study calligraphy because I am attracted by the beauty of calligraphy, and I think I can express such beauty myself ~
? During studying calligraphy with teacher Xixi, I feel more and more that the beauty of calligraphy is not only the beauty that is finally presented on rice paper, but also the beauty of the whole writing process. Only the process is beautiful, and the final result is beautiful. In a hurry and perfunctory state, you can't write words that make you feel good.
02/ Why do you want to learn calligraphy from Teacher Xixi?
? At first, I paid attention to Xixi because of her best friend Rita, who has been my role model for several years and is a very positive girl. So I silently paid attention to teacher Xixi for a long time. But I never thought that learning calligraphy from teacher Xixi could have such a great harvest. This kind of harvest is not only technology, but also internal nourishment and change of thinking. Teacher Xixi's words often hit my heart and cause deep thought. Like a breeze in the mountains, like a gurgling stream in a valley. Teacher Xixi is probably the person with the most inner rhythm I have ever met ~
Changes during the study period of 03/ 5 weeks?
? In the course of five weeks' study, I think what I have gained the most is the change in my understanding of such skills as calligraphy. I used to think that calligraphy is a skill, just like cooking, which focuses on the result, that is, the Chinese characters written in the end.
? Since I studied calligraphy with teacher Xixi these days, I have gradually understood what real calligraphy is. Calligraphy learning is a whole. It is not only necessary to practice day after day, but more importantly, to observe with a pair of eyes that appreciate beauty, so as to feel beauty, express beauty and create beauty. Teacher Xixi said: "Every word has its own unique character. We must remember it before we can make friends with it. " This sentence made me suddenly enlightened. Yes, just like the process of making friends, it takes time and attention, as well as the flow of love, to truly gain friendship, and so does practicing calligraphy. How can you make good friends if you are always perfunctory? Calligraphy is an art full of ritual sense. In the process of writing, we should carefully observe the shape, thickness and structure of each word. Calligraphy is a way of practice, not the ultimate goal. By studying and practicing calligraphy, we can finally cultivate our own mind and quality.
04/ What are your expectations for your future?
Pay attention to your breathing and rhythm, and write confidently and freely with a quiet heart and relaxed state ~
