First, the pen is used properly in running script and calligraphy. Running script calligraphy can be pressed and lifted at the moment of writing. Writing running script characters with a small brush will be stretched and withered. In fact, the size and depth of the calligraphy font of running script are often closely related to the size and depth of the pen. If the pen is too small, the strokes of running script calligraphy will be stiff, flat and thin.
Second, the running script and calligraphy use a pen, which needs to be sent with a pen. Running script calligraphy is a very full work of calligraphy art. The so-called running script calligraphy requires a stroke, that is, in the process of running a running script calligraphy stroke, the nib should be in place, and the nib cannot be picked out or folded out at the end of the stroke. This is the key to the promotion of running script calligraphy. The kung fu of issuing this pen comes from our basic skills of regular script calligraphy. Otherwise, the delivery is not in place, the quality of strokes is poor, and the delivery of running calligraphy pens relieves the noise of calligraphy art.
Third, the pen for running script should be horizontal first and vertical first, and the tie is not thick. Whether the horizontal and vertical strokes of running script calligraphy are hidden or exposed, they all conform to the principle of mold opening. In horizontal painting, it is particularly important to be careful not to make too many sharp pens, to prevent thin strokes, and to use full and thick pens. When writing calligraphy, if the words are intertwined, it is suspected of being distracted and constantly entangled.
Fourth, when using a pen for running calligraphy, we should pay attention to the changes of the pen front when writing, such as tendon, vertical pen and front. Running script calligraphy should achieve the same effect as tendon circle and have a three-dimensional effect. When writing, you can be free and easy, create boldly and freely. This kind of running script calligraphy will present an artistic effect of unrestrained momentum and clever brushwork. When we talk about the change of feng, we must say that feng can change posture and increase rhythm in a running script.
Fifth, when using a pen for running calligraphy, we should handle it gently, wind the pen smoothly, turn the pen vividly and conform to nature. Running script calligraphy involves the relationship between each line of characters and is an important part of running script composition. It is expressed by charming, interesting and vivid changes through the internal (intangible) or external (tangible) movement trajectory. Therefore, we say that we should use a pen when running a script, be dexterous when receiving a pen, be fluent when winding a pen, and be vivid and conform to nature when turning a pen. The beauty of calligraphy lies in the fact that nature is embodied by manpower, which is a very high realm.
Running script calligraphy is an old-fashioned pen, which is a sign that "people's books will be old" and is not intentional. The characteristics of running script calligraphy are also summarized in the development process of running script according to the artistic creation of predecessors. Learning calligraphy should understand every feature of the development of calligraphy art, which will be beneficial to the development of calligraphy in China.
