Characteristics of seal script
1. There are many hieroglyphics of Da Zhuan, and their expressions are also varied. Most of them are pictographs, such as horses, sheep and elephants. The rules of distribution structure are not standardized. Writing a Chinese character can represent bending over to work or kneeling. The shapes and positions of the radicals in Oracle Bone Inscriptions were also scattered, until the Qin Dynasty unified the characters. After finishing, the characters tend to be unified, but there are still many graphics and characters with different meanings.
2, the body is right, the shape of the small seal should be correct, the horizontal painting should be flat, and the vertical painting should be straight. It is a rigorous and neat book form. The structure and brushwork of Xiao Zhuan are mainly round, and the outer contour of the word is elongated because of the central intersection line of the word, such as the middle and the sky. Form a natural oval. The word potential of Xiao Zhuan is an arc at every corner. A few Miao Zhuan and Qin Zhuan used for seal cutting also have some room potential, but after careful observation, they are still mostly circles in a square, which is quite different from Li Zhuan's square potential.
3. Confusion between left and right is an ancient calligraphy style in China. Unlike regular script, there are many different changes. The basic methods of composing characters are useful points, lines and arcs. The strokes are the same thickness, and the beginning and end should be hidden in front. The left part does not need to be skimmed, and the right part has no si. It's all curves.
