I have been in contact with calligraphy practice since kindergarten, because every day I pass by the place where children practice calligraphy, and I see grandfathers teaching children to write one by one, and the black and white words are opened one by one under the nib. At that time, I thought this calligraphy practice was both magical and interesting, so I begged my mother to let me join the writing team. But my mother always said that I couldn't practice calligraphy before I entered school, because I was young and illiterate. I can't really experience the integration of pen and ink, and I can't satisfy my inner curiosity about splashing ink. Every time I pass by, I just watch people practice calligraphy. I didn't expect to be addicted to watching others practice calligraphy. I began to practice writing brush calligraphy from the first year of high school, and since then I have gradually learned a lot of knowledge outside the classroom. It turns out that Four Treasures of the Study refers to pen, ink, paper and inkstone, while China's calligraphy evolved from official, mold, line and grass?
Practicing calligraphy begins with holding a brush. Don't underestimate a simple pen. It takes a lot of effort to make it obedient. The same brush is easy to take in the teacher's hand; But it doesn't work if it's transferred to me. The teacher said that if you can't hold the brush well, you can't write it well, just like a gun in a soldier's hand. If you aim badly, you won't hit the target.
In fact, it is not difficult to practice the skills of holding a pen. The difficult thing is to write by lifting your elbow and hanging your wrist. Perhaps I am good at observation, strong copying ability and high understanding. I'm faster than most children, from practicing writing to writing fine print, to practicing writing and writing couplets. During the study time of calligraphy practice every Monday, I not only wrote several Spring Festival couplets and birthday couplets for my grandfather in the countryside, but also participated in calligraphy competitions for primary and secondary school students many times, and won the first prize in the school-level competition, the second prize in the municipal competition and the third prize in the provincial competition. Seeing that I have a strong interest in calligraphy learning and a high understanding, the teacher is going to teach me to copy Wang Xizhi's running script and rubbings. I know that if we really want to reach the state of flowing water, we still need to continue to study hard and practice calligraphy.
Calligraphy intoxicated me, not only because I experienced the pleasure of learning from it, but also because I won many awards in the calligraphy competition. More importantly, I learned the wisdom of China's quintessence and felt the pride of being a China person.
Calligraphy fascinates me, not only because I have roughly learned a skill, but also because I can write Spring Festival couplets and birthday couplets with pen and ink. More importantly, in the calligraphy practice of combining static and dynamic, I have cultivated my learning endurance and cultivated my sentiment.
