Is it better for beginners to practice the calligraphy of their predecessors or today's calligraphy?

If it is the enlightenment stage of practicing brush calligraphy: you can find your favorite font, regardless of ancient and modern times. But when you are interested in it. It is necessary to have formal study and counseling. As for the question of whether to practice the predecessors or the present in the primary stage of calligraphy practice, I can tell you so;

Your handwriting is good both in calligraphy and calligraphy. In the contemporary era, after several years, it has finally been recognized by history and formed a model. And it was imitated by later generations and even became a model of calligraphy. This person is you today. How can you become a generation without studying those excellent copybooks through the ages? .

Today's handwriting is not bad, but it has not been honed and washed by history, and I dare not say that it is good. In the words of people in the field of cultural relics, it is "doubtful".

Because with the development of society, people are gradually getting rid of the habit of writing with a brush. Even if a few people study hard and become so-called "calligraphers", they are far from the ancients. Therefore, to learn China's calligraphy today, we should take the ancients or what you said (predecessors) as a model.
