A cursive script with aromatic characters

The cursive writing of the word "Xiang":

Classification of cursive script:

Cao Zhang's brush strokes are very simple, connected by twisted ribbons, similar to today's grass. However, its structure is straight, its brushwork is blunt, and there are waves in the strokes, especially at the beginning and end of the painting, which obviously retains the brushwork of the official script, and its words are independent, intermittent and orderly, which is obviously different from grass and weeds.

This kind of grass, commonly called cursive script, is based on Cao Zhang and regular script. It is made by removing the traces of official script left by Cao Zhang, speeding up the writing, and adding a hook.

Weeds was founded in the Tang Dynasty, and Zhang Xu was the founder of Weeds, so he was called "the sage of grass". Huai Su, a later monk, was also a master of weeds. Weeds are simpler and faster than today's grass, and their brushwork is more continuous and tortuous, lively and flying, and they are unrestrained and have the potential to gallop thousands of miles.

Composition principle

(A) momentum through

Momentum needs to come from being good at using pens. If the pen is stagnant, stiff and stiff, it is impossible to talk about it, let alone smooth. Therefore, the art of calligraphy can only be effective if it is in power, and it can only be effective if it is effective and fascinating. The cursive writing is the writing spirit and temperament between ecstasy and handy.

Complicated changes

The complexity of cursive changes is indescribable. Simplification refers to the simplification of character size, density, pen thickness and accuracy. Huai Su's autobiographical notes and Zhang Xu's Four Ancient Poems have done their best, and their composition is often referred to as "sleet".

(3) Actual situation and actual situation.

Cursive script should be "virtual and real". "Reality" refers to stippling on paper, that is, black places painted with ink; "Virtual" refers to the blank space other than stippling on paper, that is, the blank space without ink. Laozi said: "Knowing white and keeping black" refers to the truth and falsehood in philosophy, which is a way to understand and reconcile the contradictions of all things in the world.
