Want to learn hard pen calligraphy, ask a master for advice! Thank you~

Sun Shu Pu: For beginners, the first thing is to be fair, and the second thing is to pursue risks and be fair. Generally speaking, it is difficult to write regular script with hidden dangers. This is in line with the "rare confusion" expressed by Zheng Banqiao. There is a story worth your reference. A monk has been practicing in the mountains for decades, and someone asked him what he thought. The monk said that this mountain will still be this mountain in ten years, but it will not be this mountain in twenty years, and it will still be this mountain in thirty years! It is unrealistic to reach the sky in one step. Chinese characters have changed from knives to pens for more than two thousand years, and there are dozens of calligraphers in history.

The formulation of hard pen calligraphy is open to question. After practicing the brush, the hard pen will naturally come, and it is not difficult, otherwise it will not be like this! From hard pen to writing brush, it takes some effort. In modern society, hard pen emphasizes practicality, while brush emphasizes artistry. Hard pen writing is helpful for writing brush. Without the foundation of brush, the common problems are floating characters, thin characters and lack of traditional charm.

The effective method is: find one or several favorite copybooks, read them often when you have nothing to do (so-called reading stickers), choose one copybook and stick to it for 20 minutes every day (hard pen and brush). It was a little difficult at first, but it was still considerable to stick to it. Breaking through difficult words can achieve the goal of writing beautiful and handsome words. (Of course, it is still far from calligraphers.)

Persistence is the most important thing. Practicing calligraphy means practicing heart and perseverance! Be careful. Be patient!
