Calligraphy is an artistic expression of the unique beauty of words in China and neighboring countries and regions deeply influenced by China culture. Including China calligraphy, Mongolian calligraphy, Arabic calligraphy and English calligraphy. His China Calligraphy is a unique traditional Chinese character art in China.
Calligraphy in a broad sense refers to the writing rules of characters and symbols. In other words, calligraphy refers to writing with its brushwork, structure and composition according to the characteristics and significance of words, making it a beautiful work of art. China's calligraphy is an original performance art of the Han nationality, which is known as: poetry without words, wireless dance; Paintings without pictures, silent music, etc.
The usage of the word "meter" has always been controversial among calligraphy learners and enthusiasts. On page 48 of Introduction to Calligraphy published by Mr. Qi Gong 1986, the interpretation of the word "meter" is wrong. Today, I wrote in detail what Qigong told me and my practical experience, so that others can practice calligraphy structure without detours.
The word "meter" mentioned by Mr. Qi Gong is an important rule of calligraphy structure and a great contribution to calligraphy art, which is different from the word "meter" or "well" printed on the red mold.
The grid on the red mold is for beginners to arrange the stroke position for reference. The structural rule of "Mi" is that ∠ 1 less than ∠3, ∠2 less than ∠4, ∠5 less than ∠7 and ∠6 less than ∠8 when writing rice.
In other words, the two points in the upper part of the rice word should be slightly correct, and the lower part should be slightly flat, so that the word looks good.
The most common misunderstanding is that writing two points and one left and one right of Chinese characters on the diagonal grid with a 45-degree angle on the red grid is considered as the standard. This is as bad as the so-called writing should be horizontal and vertical, so the words written in this way have no aesthetic feeling
There are many characters in Chinese characters that can use the rule of "meter" case.
The first category is the two-point and one-vertical figures in the upper half, such as light, time, dang and Xiao.
The second category is the characters with one left, one right and one vertical in the lower part, such as: wood, east, etc. Writing these words in violation of the "meter" rule, the effect is clear at a glance.
