I have never been exposed to soft pen calligraphy before. I don't know what paper to write with, what pen to use, and how many words to write. How do novices write a good brush?

Pen, beginners use double-stranded brush, and the strength of pen is better mastered, like large, medium and white clouds.

Paper, fringed paper and book paper are all acceptable. Practicing hands is more affordable, and beige plaid is the best.

Ink, the best cupboard, the second ostrich, it's been a long time.

Beginners should not practice words that are too big or too small. Personally, I feel that the grid is about 8 cm. Practice European style first and buy a printed copybook. Today, you can practice farming. You can find his teaching video "One Word a Day" on the Internet. His European Pattern Analysis is very practical and comprehensive. You can buy a textbook. Beginners should be practical, not eager for quick success. Success belongs to the persevering.
