Tools and materials: pen, Tian Ziben
Method/step-by-step reading
1. Sitting posture: The head should be upright and the body should be straight.
2. How to hold the pen: The method of holding the pen is not difficult. The key is to use the finger to hold the hand and the palm to hold the hand. The thumb, index and middle fingers are stuck in the penholder, and the penholder is leaning between the tiger's mouth.
3. Dot: The basic writing method of hard-pen regular script dot painting is to start the pen gently, gradually increase the pressure, pause for a while, and then return to the peak. For a hard pen, the range of return to the peak should not be too large, and it is often just one movement; right point: stroke lightly, from light to medium, stroke downward to the right, press briefly and then close the stroke, do not re-draw, and complete the painting in one go. The key is to have a writing process, and never put the pen away as soon as the pen tip touches the paper. Left point: When starting the pen, the tip of the pen is exposed, and when the stroke is stroked, the tip of the stroke is to the left. Note that when retracting the pen, return to the peak to the right to retract the pen, that is, to hide the front.
4. Horizontal strokes: Horizontal strokes play the role of beams in Chinese characters. They should be slightly flat, with the left side low and the right side high. The length and width are different, the length is slightly flat, the short is slightly upward, and the force is basically the same.
5. Vertical: Lift the pen to the lower right and draw vertically. Do not use too much force. When you close the pen, draw back to the peak. Note: The direction of returning to the peak should be determined according to the position of the next stroke. The short vertical writing method is the same.
6. Sketch: Make the stroke slightly longer and shorter. For short strokes, the writing method is to put down the pen slightly heavier, then write strokes downward and to the left, and then close the stroke when the stroke ends (note: whether it is short strokes or long strokes, the strokes must have a certain arc, and should not be too stiff or too curved. The arc cannot be too large). For vertical strokes, the writing method is the same as for short strokes. The pen is slightly longer, vertically downward first, and the pen is lifted three-quarters of the way out and closed (note: the control of the arc).
