First, the axis of the word and the axis of the line
The so-called word axis refers to a straight line that passes through the center of gravity of the word and divides the word into two equal parts. In the second line of the picture, we give each calligraphy and painting their coordinate axes, which can show the movement trend of the words.
The movement line of a line refers to the axis of a reference word, and a curve is used to represent the movement change of the word in a line. In the fourth line of the above picture, we use the green line to represent the movement line of the line.
In the third line of the above picture, after the axis of the word is adjusted, the moving line of the line presents the effect of a straight line. If you don't change the size of the word, it is really what the ancients called "the word is like a symbol."
Second, the change of the outline of a single word in a line and the change of the outline of a line.
If we draw the outline of each calligraphy and painting as a line, we find that the characters on a line are not all rectangular square characters, but several wonderful figures with different shapes are connected in series to form a line.
Given the outline of a line of calligraphy and painting, we find that the outline of a line of words presents an undulating curve, which depends on the creative expansion and contraction of words, the dispersion of size, the contrast of density and so on to cope with the change.
Third, change the route.
We can see that in a few words work, the length, thickness and dryness of lines are different. If we can separate three or four different but subtle lines before and after Lanting, we can feel the strong contrast between the lines in Sacrifice to My Nephew.
Thick lines are heavy and steady, and thin lines are smart and elegant; The round line is warm, and Fang Bi sees Jiao Ling; Long-term stretch, short-term neatness; Thick ink, dry pen flying white ... The works are done in one go, and these lines are organically combined, seemingly random, but in fact they are cleverly arranged.
Fourth, the change of ink.
The ancients intentionally or unintentionally glued the ink once and wrote a few words until the ink was dry, and then glued and wrote again, thus suggesting a kind of flow, the continuation of time and the change of emotion through the change of ink color; Another meaning of the change of pen and ink is that calligraphers deliberately use different shades of pen and ink to match paper and pen, and write running script works with different aesthetic feelings. For example, Mi Fei's "Value Rain Post" uses dry ink, and the effect is completely different from that of "Book in the Basket".
The change of writing speed of verbs (abbreviation of verb)
As can be seen from the calligraphy works, the first three lines are slow, the penultimate three lines should be like flying pens, killing paper is more enjoyable, and the last line should be jumping. Every time I have this incredible creative performance, such as the last few lines of Yan Zhi and Shi Guo, they are all strange, crazy and wonderful!
