For calligraphy enthusiasts, there are also skills in choosing a brush. You cannot buy it casually. You must pay attention to the "roundness, sharpness, neatness, and health" of the pen tip, which is also called the "four virtues" of the brush.
1. Round. After dipping in ink, the pen belly should be "round" so that it can exert force in every direction.
2. Pointing, the tip of the pen should be "pointed" when it is closed, so that the edge will be sharp.
3. Qi, the brush tip should be flattened and the brush tip should be "Qi". After the brush tip is unfolded, the wool will be neat and uniform, and it will be even when the force is applied.
4. Healthy, the pen tip can quickly return to "healthy" after absorbing water and pressing the pen. The three parts of the pen tip, pen waist and pen root must be tough, and the pen tip can quickly return to its original shape after deformation.
After the brush is spread out, you can smooth the edge of the brush with your hands. The brush tip should be smooth and delicate, not pricking your hand, and not rough. Then, hold the pen in your right hand and write in the palm of your left hand, so that you can feel the toughness and elasticity of the pen. A good pen is one that can quickly return to its original shape after deformation.
At the same time, you can look at the tip of the brush against the light. For a good brush, the tip is transparent and you can see the "glow" at the tip of the animal's hair. If it is not obvious, you can distinguish it more clearly after dipping it in ink and cleaning it. If the tip of the pen is white, it is a good pen.
