How to improve your calligraphy appreciation level

To appreciate the beauty of calligraphy, we must first learn calligraphy. When your calligraphy level reaches a certain level, you will naturally have this ability. There is also a premise that you can't learn one person's calligraphy simply, but learn from others. As long as you are recognized as a good calligrapher, you must see where his calligraphy is good. Learning calligraphy can't just make you feel "beautiful". The first feeling like running script is visual comfort. But this is only the appearance of it. When learning regular script, official script, etc. Your vision will be broadened and your appreciation of a calligraphy work will not be limited to a single sense and understanding.

"Vivid charm, unity of form and spirit, combination of point, line and surface, combination of reality and reality, blending of pen and ink, and flying literary talent"

Vivid charm: this is the first instinct given by calligraphy, which refers to the aesthetic feeling in form.

"Unity of form and meaning": This means that the appearance of calligraphy is integrated with the meaning that the author wants to express.

In fact, when I first started learning calligraphy, I also had the same blind obedience and understanding as you. At that time, my teacher asked me to practice when I was young. I thought I was self-righteous. I feel that many words in it are "ugly", so I skip it and don't practice. Later, the teacher repeatedly instructed me to practice. After a long time, I practiced more calligraphy, learned more calligraphy and improved my level. Looking back at those words that I thought were "ugly" in those years, I now have a unique aftertaste.
