The specific method is: first, practice learning to write Chinese calligraphy, roughly understand the ins and outs of Chinese calligraphy, understand the direction of strokes and the structure of Chinese characters, and then write against Chinese calligraphy. It is planned to spend 2~3 years to improve everyone's running script level.
Learning to write is nothing more than putting pen and ink on paper and inkstone. Teacher Cao studied many teaching materials, and after comparison, he decided to use the Preface to Zhao Mengfu Dialect. The brush is made of Japanese marker, which is a plastic pen with its own ink, and it is very convenient to use. Hard pens are also made in Japan, because the water is smooth and uniform. Ink and inkstone are all saved. Paper is transparent paper, and there are plaid books.
The book Preface to Zhao Mengfu's Lin Ji Dialect is unusual.
The contents of the book involve two emperors in the Tang Dynasty and Xuanzang. At that time, after Xuanzang went to India to learn Buddhist scriptures 17 years later, Li Shimin personally wrote the Preface of Three Monks in the Tang Dynasty for the New Classics, and then ordered the then Crown Prince Li Zhi (later succeeded Tang Gaozong) to write the Record of Three Monks. After receiving the preface, Xuanzang wrote letters of thanks to Li Shimin and Li Zhi respectively, and Li Shimin and Li Zhi thanked each other.
The monk Huairen in Hongfu Temple collected the calligraphy of Wang Xizhi in Tang Dynasty and the ink of folk Wang Zi. It took more than 20 years to complete the Preface to Wang Xizhi's Collection, and then the Beijing Legalists raised funds to carve the tablet and deposited it in Jionji. This inscription is engraved with Preface to Emperor Taizong and Record of Tang Gaozong, as well as two pieces of Qi Xie written by Emperor Taizong and Emperor Gaozong to Master Xuanzang in those years, with the Heart Sutra translated by Xuanzang attached to it. Since then, Preface to Wang Xizhi has become one of the necessary legal posts for learners.
Zhao Mengfu wrote this post many times in his life. The post chosen by Teacher Cao is said to have been written by Zhao Mengfu.
Who's Zhao Mengfu? He is known as Song Xue and Song Xue Taoist, also known as Goulpeau and Water Mirror Palace Taoist. He is the eleventh grandson, after Zhao, the king of Qin. After the Song Dynasty, he resigned and returned to his hometown of Xing Wu, Zhejiang, to live in seclusion. Later, he was recommended by Cheng Jufu to be an official in the Yuan Dynasty, and was appointed as the director of punishments, with a bachelor's degree in Hanlin and Dr. Rong Lu. After his death, he was promoted to Wei Guogong and Shi Wenmin. Zhao Mengfu read widely, especially calligraphy and painting. In painting, he created a new style of painting in the Yuan Dynasty, and was praised as the crown of the Yuan Dynasty. In calligraphy, he occupies an important position. His calligraphy style is elegant, elegant and rigorous, and he writes well. He was called Zhao Ti, Zhao Mengfu, Ou Yangxun, Yan Zhenqing and Liu Gongquan, all of whom were from the Tang Dynasty.
Teacher Cao taught us to read the explanation of the Preface of Zhao Mengfu Characters, then carefully ponder over the 64 basic stippling analysis of Pintie, and learn to understand the length, thickness, direction, strength, speed, posture, trend, hidden and other typical characters. Then, we took the four squares of square paper as a big square of China's calligraphy, wrote China's calligraphy in this big square, and then wrote hard-pen calligraphy in a small square with a pen. The purpose is to guide writing with a brush, which is an innovation.
The following is a part of the text on the first page of the Preface to the Holy Teaching that Kyle and I copied. Although it was the first time I learned to write with a brush correctly, I was a little surprised myself. Did I copy this? Although there are still many burrs in each stroke, the whole page looks good.
That's it, I'm looking forward to practicing writing like this!
