How to write the character Zhang in a nice and domineering way: the "bow" is slightly narrow, the horizontal strokes are parallel and even, and the horizontal and vertical fold hooks are slightly inclined to the left. "Long" horizontal strokes are of moderate length, vertical strokes are straight, and short strokes are long.
1. Skills for writing hard-pen calligraphy
1. In hard-pen calligraphy, we should try to make the fonts into round shapes. This breaks the square calligraphy taught by the teacher. In fact, the square calligraphy is written in square form. It doesn’t look good. Chinese people pursue roundness, so it is generally better to use round fonts.
2. Follow the formula of the word, tighten the left and right, put the center of gravity firmly, tighten at the top and wide at the bottom. It means that characters with a left-right structure should be tightened on the left and stretched on the right, and characters with an up-down structure should be tightened on the top and stretched on the bottom.
3. Pay attention to the writing of key strokes (i.e. words). As long as the key strokes of the entire word are written well, the entire font will also be quite beautiful. For example, the slanted hooks of "I" and "Fa" are key strokes.
4. When practicing calligraphy, you must have your own observations and similarities and differences. The characters cannot be the same, but must be different to form your own calligraphy style. For example, the two characters for mountain in the picture are both mountains. But the combination is different. But still looks good.
5. We should pay attention to the overall structure of the font. When we practice calligraphy, we often only practice strokes, but when combined into a word, it still doesn't look good. What matters is the placement of the strokes, not the strokes themselves.
2. Precautions
1. Place the penholder between the three tips of the thumb, index finger and middle finger. The index finger is in front, the thumb is behind the left, and the middle finger is on the lower right. The index finger should be lower than the thumb, and the finger tip should be about 3 cm away from the tip of the pen. The pen barrel and the notebook should be tilted at 60 degrees, the palm of the hand should be rounded, and the knuckles should be slightly bent.
2. Sit upright, with your legs naturally flat, your head and upper body leaning forward slightly, your chest a fist away from the table, your arms flat on the table, your right hand holding a pen to write, and your left hand pressing the paper. Straighten up.
3. Hold the tip of the pen 30 mm between the index finger and the middle finger. The tail of the pen is close to the tiger's mouth. Then press the pen with your thumb and press the pen with appropriate force. The ring finger and little finger press against the middle finger in turn, with the strength of the thumb. When they are against each other, the palms of your hands are empty and you move your wrists.
