Why do you write Chinese calligraphy slowly?

When using a pen, it is fast and slow, just like music, which is called the rhythm of calligraphy writing.

Can't build momentum slowly.

Fast and slow are relative.

Speed is also related to the calligrapher's mood and personal habits.

China's ancient calligraphy is practical and pays attention to the art of writing (calligraphy). Nowadays, calligraphy is basically to express artistic beauty.

Modern calligraphy style is a relative concept. On the one hand, writers are not as familiar, sophisticated and high-level as the ancients, on the other hand, the artistic form of calligraphy changes with the times. It should be admitted that there are good works in modern calligraphy style that meet the aesthetic standards of modern aesthetic taste and the inherent beauty standards of calligraphy art, but most of them are artificial, moaning and bluffing goods lacking basic skills.

Indeed, modern calligraphy is basically to express artistic beauty, and exhibitions and awards have a strong purpose.

The writing tools, the size of the characters, the aesthetic expression and the posture of writing have all changed greatly compared with ancient times (for example, most of the calligraphy works before the Ming Dynasty were within 50cm, while in modern times they were 8 feet 2 feet; For another example, modern calligraphy is written on a desk, while in the Tang Dynasty and before, it was written with a scroll in the left hand and a right hand sitting. There was a desk in the late Tang dynasty, but it was not for writing. In the Song dynasty, there was writing on the desk. It's really hard for people to compare modern calligraphy with ancient calligraphy and demand to write the same thing as the ancients.
