There are many calligraphy styles of books, including official script, regular script and cursive script. With the inheritance and innovation of modern artists, calligraphy has become a unique art form in China culture.
I. Glyph structure
Stroke, structure and form are the three basic elements of Chinese characters, and the harmonious relationship between them needs to be considered in the glyph construction in calligraphy, so that each character looks readable, rhythmic and vivid.
Second, the brushwork
The highest state of calligraphy is that the words written are careless and natural and smooth, and to achieve this state, you need to be proficient in pen techniques. Good brushwork needs to choose the appropriate word line, font, stroke order and stroke structure according to each word.
Third, artistic expression.
Calligraphy is not only limited to the expression of glyphs, but also requires the expression of certain emotions, momentum or artistic conception in the process of word formation and combination, so as to make the works more vivid and full of feelings.
Fourth, the style of calligraphy.
Calligraphy has many different styles, such as regular script, official script and running script. These styles run through the historical development of calligraphy and form their own unique aesthetic style and cultural connotation.
V. Selection and Transcription of Materials
Compared with calligraphy techniques such as font structure, the emphasis on material selection and copying is often ignored, but in fact these two points are also important links in calligraphy creation. Good calligraphy works often show deep skill and artistic accomplishment from manuscript selection and copying.
Sixth, calligraphy education.
Calligraphy education not only pays attention to the teaching of basic skills, but also discusses the relationship between calligraphy and Confucianism, literature and art, philosophy and so on. In calligraphy education, students can also be exposed to the cultural background of calligraphy, famous works and their relationship with history and culture.
Seven. Application of science and technology
In today's digital age, many calligraphers began to try to use new technologies to transform and integrate traditional calligraphy. For example, using virtual simulation technology to realize the feeling of calligraphy writing, or using digital technology to display calligraphy works in three dimensions.
In a word, calligraphy is not only a kind of writing art with neatly arranged symbols, but also a complex system, which needs to master all kinds of skills and make unique innovations at all times.
