In addition to determination and confidence, we should expand our knowledge and improve our cultural quality and accomplishment with the continuous growth of our level, which is helpful for learning calligraphy well. As for what to learn, you can gradually realize it in practice, so don't say too much now.
Some people think that the more you write, the better. The longer you write, the better. In fact, writing too much for a long time may not be effective. I think more than one hour a day is enough. The most important thing is to have a good method. You buy a copybook you like, for example, Si Mayan's regular script. You should look carefully at how every word in the copybook is written first. Read and think repeatedly. At first, don't be greedy. Write one or two words every day, and then gradually increase. Three or five words a day, seven or eight words, a dozen words. In short, not much, not fast, but good. What are you looking at and thinking about? When you look at the shape of a stroke, what is its shape? Second, look at the font, what shape the word is, that is, how the strokes that make up the word are arranged and combined, which is long, which is short, which is big and which is small. Third, look at how excessive this word is, that is, how the upper and lower words are connected. Fourth, look at how the lines are related. If you read it clearly, you have to understand that how people write and how the pen moves is the path and order of writing. Only by reading clearly, thinking clearly and working hard can you write well. You have the desire to write good words, you have good methods, and with your perseverance, you can be sure that you can see the initial effect in one month, and there will be great changes in three months. After half a year, you will be impressed. In less than a year, your good handwriting has been practiced. Give it a try.
On the question of description, first of all, you should understand why we describe and why we copy.
Description is mainly for beginners to master the brushwork of fonts in the process of copying, which is the basis of practicing calligraphy, but writing is not just brushwork, only brushwork combined with the structure of words can be a beautiful word.
Copying is mainly for beginners to master the structure of fonts in the process of learning books. Only by mastering the shelf structure and brushwork of words more accurately can we write good words.
Therefore, when you feel that you have mastered all the brushwork in the process of tracing, you can start copying! ! ! You will master both brushwork and structure from only brushwork! ! !
