First, the evolution of regular script:
1. The current regular script is gradually evolved from Han Li, which can be divided into Weibei and Tang Kai according to the period. Weibei refers to the calligraphy style in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. It can be said to be a transitional calligraphy style from official script to regular script. Zhong Zhishuai's "Learning Calligraphy" said: "Wei Bei's calligraphy can be seen in the old style of Han and Qin Dynasties, but since Sui and Tang Dynasties."
2. Weibei often has the writing style of official script of Han Dynasty in it, so its regular script nature is not mature, but it is because of this immaturity that a hundred flowers blossom and its posture is strange, forming a unique beauty. Kang Youwei's evaluation is "ten beauties in Weibei". Regular script in a narrow sense refers to Tang Kai, which gradually matured after the Tang Dynasty. Its representatives are Ou Yangxun, Yu Shinan, Chu Suiliang and Xue Qi in the early Tang Dynasty, Yan Zhenqing in the middle Tang Dynasty and Liu Gongquan in the late Tang Dynasty.
3, we often say that the four masters of regular script "Yan Liu Ou Zhao", the first three are from the Tang Dynasty. By the end of the Tang Dynasty, regular script had reached its peak and its style was too regular, so it gradually declined. In the Song Dynasty, Su Shi, with his poetic demeanor, created a rich and naive "Su Ti", which can be called "the first in the Song Dynasty".
At the end of Song Dynasty and the beginning of Yuan Dynasty, Zhao Mengfu formed "Zhao Ti", that is, "Zhao" among the four families, but "Zhao Ti" should strictly belong to a regular script, not a regular script, so beginners generally choose from "Yan", which is also recognized as the correct way to learn books.
Second, the classification of italics
1, lowercase
Small script, as its name implies, is a small regular script, which was founded in Zhong You during the Wei Dynasty of the Three Kingdoms. He was once an outstanding master of official script, and the brushwork of regular script was born in Han Li. His brushwork is as vivid as playing in the sea.
However, the structure is wide and flat, the horizontal painting is long and the vertical painting is short, and the legacy of official division still exists. However, the model method is ready, and it is actually the ancestor of the official book. When Wang Xizhi came to the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he studied the lower case calligraphy more carefully and made it perfect, which also set a good appreciation standard for China's lower case calligraphy.
Step 2 print letters
Under normal circumstances, people call block letters one inch or more and a few inches or less block letters. The larger characters in real books are called "Bangshu" and "Broken Book". According to the accumulated experience of calligraphers in past dynasties, learning calligraphy should start with writing big characters and doing basic exercises.
Mastering the stippling, structure and white cloth in block letters, and making stippling accurate and proper, then writing in block letters can be comprehensive and the stippling rules are clear; Moreover, the study list can be intimate, open-minded and not distracted.
