What is the best font order for practicing calligraphy?
To be honest, it depends on the purpose of learning calligraphy. If you are studying for the exam, you can start practicing Yan Zhengqing's block letters. His printing is easy to learn and beautiful. If the purpose of practicing calligraphy is not so utilitarian, and the focus is on finding artistic inspiration and creating a classical and quaint calligraphy atmosphere, then you can consider practicing seal script from the beginning. Practicing seal script can cultivate the harmony and aesthetics of your word formation. It requires a higher sense of art, and the written works are more lasting and will not fall into the stereotype. If you are interested in seal script, you can copy Li Si's. His seal script is more representative. I was the first teacher to let me practice block letters for several weeks. I didn't make much progress and felt bored. Later, I was taught by a teacher who majored in calligraphy in Hu Mei. He didn't advocate me to practice block letters at first. He said that it takes a long time to write well. At first, learning calligraphy was mainly to cultivate one's interest and feeling in calligraphy. You can choose one of seal script and official script to start copying practice. When you have a certain calligraphy foundation, a sense of harmony in word formation and a sense of beauty, you can consciously choose and practice in block letters, small letters, running scripts, cursive scripts and other calligraphy systems according to your own preferences! At first, I practiced seal script, but now seal script is more interesting and I can write a long article. I also participated in the school calligraphy exhibition!
