(1) Choose the official script copybook that suits you best.
? Suggest that I go to see the "Yiying Monument" and "Liying Monument" first, which can be called killing two birds with one stone. It is the most beautiful two-way monument in Han Li, which is easy for beginners to learn and the earliest one for me. However, due to personality, experience, environment and other factors, everyone's aesthetic tastes and hobbies are different, just like the choice of clothes. Some people like solemnity, some people like chic, some people like luxury, some people like elegance, and the same is true for calligraphy. It's not enough just to like it. It depends on whether you are suitable or not. In the Han Dynasty, especially in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the wind of setting up funerals and carving stones to show merit prevailed, so the inscriptions handed down were extremely rich. Although these inscriptions all belong to Han Li, their styles are quite different. It can be roughly divided into two types. A kind of dignified and elegant, such as ceremonial monument, ceremonial monument, Shi Chenbei, Cao Quanbei, etc. One is rich and simple, such as the Zhang Qianbei, the Monument to the Good King, and the Monument to the Fair Square. Different styles give people different feelings. You can choose your favorite style, and you can also choose the style that suits you. At present, the book world pays more attention to vigorous and simple official script, and too beautiful and embellished inscriptions, such as "Cao Quanbei", will slip into the sweet customs if they are not mastered well.
? If you want to choose, you should compare, or you can buy more official documents and put them on your desk. This is necessary. Compared with the ritual tablet, the strokes of Yiying tablet are thicker and give people a fuller feeling. Unlike the ritual tablet, it tastes like a bronze inscription, but it is a complete official script. Fang Shuo said that he was "the best teacher in Han Li", and he probably saw this feature. Its horizontal strokes are slightly lower and strokes are slightly lower, which makes the figure slightly inclined and adds delicate beauty. The painting is heavy and powerful, and the dovetail is square and powerful. Like Rite Memorial, it is the best model for beginners. After studying for a certain period of time, you can return to Ode to Shimen, whose artistic achievements have always been highly respected. His words are extremely bold and unrestrained, thin and vigorous, and elegant and natural. Multi-purpose round pen, the pen is right in front, the back of the pen is right in front, and the middle of the pen is rigid and calm, so the strokes are ancient, thick, hidden and elastic. Throughout, the word follows the trend of the stone, uneven, open and close vertically and horizontally, free and easy, full of interest. As a representative of Han Li, Zhong You has always been proud and known as "the cursive script in the official residence". My teacher, Master Liu Bingsen, was deeply influenced by Ode to Shimen after collecting the length of many historic sites.
(2) Comply with laws and regulations
? "Fa" in calligraphy is different from other disciplines and can be defined by formulas, laws, principles and rules. As long as you follow the steps in the book, you can get the correct answer. "Fa" in calligraphy is a famous tablet left by ancient sages. The brushwork, structure and composition on the tablet are all rules and standards that we should follow. Beginners, that is, taking the tablet as the statute, standardize their own words that do not meet the statute, so the famous post is also called the law post. The so-called "compliance with the law" means learning first-class inscriptions. Fang Ji Shu: "As the old saying goes:' Take the law and you will get it; By the way, you are next. ""Beginners' eyesight is not high, and the inscriptions they see are limited. There are countless ideas about what to do. Often when you get official documents, you are eager to learn, and it is easy to take detours. What's that? Among nearly a hundred kinds of official script inscriptions, Han Li is the first one. Judging from the development history of writing, Lishu reached its peak in the Eastern Han Dynasty. From the perspective of time and space, the remains of sages nearly 2,000 years ago are bound to be full of ancient interest, while the official script of the Qing Dynasty is not lacking in new ideas, but the ancient interest is weak. Among the Han steles, although calligraphers have different views on individual steles, they have basically the same views on most famous steles. These well-known stone tablets are recognized as Shang. As mentioned above, several China official script copybooks.
? Since there is a top, there must be a bottom. What is the bottom? There are two kinds of copybooks that are not worth taking. First, the post printed by people before and after the ancient tablet, the words on this post have lost the spirit of the original tablet after two or even three times, so it is better to choose the original tablet. Second, we should be cautious about the inscriptions that are not highly evaluated or "unknown" in the book industry, and we should not treat them equally. It is controversial whether people can learn calligraphy now. In my opinion, today's calligraphy can be used for reference. Compared with Mr. Liu Bingsen, his calligraphy is world-famous, and he is good at both calligraphy and cursive script. The traditional skill is profound, and the calligraphy style is thick, steady and elegant. It is a banner of today's official script, which is estimated to be hundreds of years ahead. However, I still believe that we should carefully learn from today's people, bearing in mind what Mr. Liu Bingsen once told me: "Those who learn from me will survive, while those who imitate me will die." So don't learn too deeply, because today's people also learn from ancient steles. In fact, I am constantly breaking free and groping.
(3) For beginners, it is best to choose Zheng Ping Lu Yi's copybook first.
? Sun's "Book Score" says, "Beginners should be fair in distribution ...". Although this is a beginner's word knot, we must first type the knot correctly. Then, if you want to be honest, you should first choose honest and upright copybooks, such as Yi Ying Bei, Li Qi Bei and Shi Chenbei, which are good examples for beginners. The knot is upright and the cloth is symmetrical, which is also a style, giving people a dignified and elegant aesthetic feeling. An upright official script has unlimited room for expansion. If you want to pursue adventure, fairness is the basis of adventure. Although the copybooks along dangerous roads such as "Zhang Qianbei" are highly artistic, it is difficult for beginners to accept them emotionally because of their lack of aesthetics, and it is difficult to get the gist and grasp the techniques when writing. It's not too late to change calligraphy until you have a deeper understanding of calligraphy and a deeper skill, and have a deep understanding of the aesthetic characteristics of such inscriptions.
(4) Please ask a famous teacher for advice during the learning process.
It is suggested that in the process of posting, if possible, you can learn from a famous official script teacher, or have the opportunity to ask a famous person to give directions in person. Maybe you can make faster progress, or at least take fewer detours.
