What should I pay attention to when collecting cursive script?

The beginning and end of cursive script

The completion of a pen requires three processes: starting, writing and collecting. It is a process from big to small. For example, to start a pen in one go, you must have very deep skill to write good results. Collecting a pen is as important as starting to use it, so you need to clean it carefully. Take cursive script as an example. Sun in Tang Dynasty was not only good at theory, but also good at practice. Sun's "Book Score" is very unique and exquisite in starting and collecting pens, especially the mastery and application of the nib is amazing. ? First, using a pen Sun's pen is very smooth, really in one go. In the process of learning, we can observe and learn Pu Shu's writing methods from several aspects.

1, pen angle. First of all, when writing, it is not straight. It has a very small tip. Although this thin tip is very thin and small, it is neither thin nor heavy. It should be caused by a slight twist of the tube after entering the pen, so that the stroke quickly turns from the side to the middle. This kind of writing is subtle and charming. Wang Xizhi's Preface to the Lanting Pavilion is basically bare and positive, otherwise Sun would admire Wang Xizhi so much! There are many changes in the angle of entry, almost all angles, which need careful observation. Finding the angle of writing is very helpful for the next stroke. The changes are too rich, so watch the posts carefully.

2. the hidden dew of the pen. The beginning of "Book Score" is very refreshing, but it is not straightforward, but it has a change in angle direction and will not appear too burr. A small amount of Tibetan writing before is also to change the rhythm and increase the richness of Chinese characters.

3. The weight of the pen. Pu Shu's strokes are mostly light, drifting with the flow, very smooth and beautiful. But sometimes there will be some redrawing, with a sense of frustration and oppression. This combination of light and heavy strokes enhances the overall sense of rhythm and is very rhythmic.

4. The relationship between the beginning and the end of the pen. The "book spectrum" is beautifully written, and there is no feeling of blocking at all. Although there are not many Lian Bi, most of them are independent of each other, but the stroke connection between words makes the composition look beautiful. Therefore, we should pay attention to the joint relationship between the pen and the last pen, and the pen should be strong, not independent of each other. Such as the first horizontal painting of "Zhi" and the first skimming painting of "Fu".

Second, collect the pen? Many people only pay attention to pens and don't pay attention to their collection, which is wrong. The ancients attached great importance to collecting pens and were very cautious. Be sure to accept what comes, so that a word can be written completely and not lost.

1, Dunshou. This method of collecting the pen is to collect the pen with the belly of the pen, which gives people an abrupt feeling and triggers association. However, this method is not commonly used in book grading.

2. Recycling. Back to the front to close the pen, here is the back to the front after the end of the stroke is slightly raised, and the stroke is wrapped in stippling, which also has a subtle and meaningful artistic effect. For example, use the word "nothing" to collect the pen horizontally, and collect the pen at the last point of the word "order".

Step 3 put it away. This method of collecting pens is most used in the book spectrum. It is worth mentioning that when this pen is closed, Sun usually has a lifting action, which makes the tip of the pen smaller. The first horizontal of the word "mutual" is obvious. Some strokes are put away with a little more ingredients, which are not as subtle as those mentioned above.

In order to accept the next stroke, some strokes should be paid attention to.

4. Send the front tip to the end. When collecting a pen, it is most taboo to throw it hard, but to send the nib to the end of the stroke. In this way, you will not be frivolous and appear calm.
