Calligraphy is a unique traditional art in China. Chinese characters in China were created by working people and began to be recorded by pictures. After thousands of years of development, it has evolved into today's writing. Calligraphy came into being because our ancestors invented the writing brush. Throughout the ages, Chinese characters were mainly written with a brush.
As for other writing forms, such as hard pen and fingering calligraphy, their writing rules are not completely different from those of brush calligraphy, but they are basically the same. Calligraphy in a narrow sense refers to the methods and laws of writing Chinese characters with a brush. Including writing, calligraphy, stippling, structure, layout (distribution, lines, composition) and so on.
Benefits of learning calligraphy:
1, to enhance children's aesthetic taste. In the strokes, structure and composition of Chinese characters, bones, tendons, flesh, blood and even movements in Chinese characters are everywhere.
From pictograph to sound, sound and sound complement each other, enriching the image and artistic conception of Chinese characters. Therefore, a beautiful quatrain, if expressed in beautiful calligraphy, can not only appreciate poetry, but also appreciate painting.
2. Cultivate children's pattern awareness. Learn calligraphy from the strokes of a word, to the shelf structure of a word, to the reaction of the upper and lower words, and then to the overall effect of the whole article. Children should have a clear idea before writing.
In this training process, children will pay attention to the meticulous details and priorities of strokes from an early age, pay attention to the control of strokes, and take into account the overall beauty and generosity of words. At the same time, they must have a complete word layout in the process of writing each word.
