How to practice calligraphy and hard pen calligraphy?

First, matters needing attention in calligraphy learning

People are keen to practice hard pen calligraphy now. Some people have made remarkable progress in a short time, while others have worked hard for several years without any progress. Learn to write brush strokes should pay attention to the following points:

1: Select a template, copy first, then copy, and copy and copy together.

Look at the pen Copybook for calligraphy published in the market. The word is small because of the pen word. Although the strokes are fine and the structure is rigorous, it is not convenient for beginners to copy (write with words). Most people are lazy to copy, thinking that only primary school students will do this, but they don't know that copying is a key step in learning books and an effective way to avoid the futility of "copy and paste" learning. A person who doesn't copy, but only writes according to copybooks, can hardly find the shortcomings of his writing. Only by copying first and then copying, and combining copying with writing, can he make progress. After selecting the copybook, you can use the copier to enlarge it to 1.5 χ 5 cm. If you like to write clearly and delicately, you can choose an elastic pen. In the process of learning, we should combine imitation, presence, memory (words after dictation) and creation (writing words similar to words after dictation). In addition, you can write down what you haven't learned on the back page of the copybook in your mind or ask someone to read it, and then write it in your accustomed way, and then compare it with the original copybook to see the gap between yourself and the copybook, so as to check your own shortcomings.

Step 2 choose the right method

Learning hard pen calligraphy can directly learn running script for quick success. However, influenced by the orthodox concept of "write the book first and then write the running script", many math books have been meticulously writing regular script for a long time, and once they need to actually write the running script, they lose confidence. Therefore, writing running script directly or combining the main lines is a short-term effective method.

3. Choose the right Copybook for calligraphy.

In Copybook for calligraphy, there are strict norms and generosity. Everyone's personality makes their hobbies different. The same copybook varies from person to person. A bold and exposed person often does not stick to stippling and likes to write cursive scripts. Although natural and unrestrained, fluent, but the statutes are insufficient, the cursive script is not bad. An introverted person often likes to write neat and exquisite books, but when writing running script, he pays too much attention to the fineness of stippling, so it is difficult to get rid of rigid writing habits. Therefore, it is the first step to choose various styles of copybooks and then decide your own special target. The second step is to change copybooks according to your own characteristics during the learning process. Only by selecting, deepening, diluting and merging can we gradually improve. Wang Xizhi's Preface to Lanting, Preface to Saint Education and Yan Zhenqing's Xitie are all excellent running script models in history. You can learn directly. In order to solve the weakness of writing with pen, you can temporarily write with 2B-5B soft pencil. There are three advantages to using a pencil: first, there is no problem of improper use of a pen, and writing is smooth and easy; Both of them avoid the pursuit of meticulous stippling and ignore the overall effect when using the pen, which lays the foundation for rapid writing; Three thick strokes can be written in big characters similar to the original post, which not only has statutes, but also eliminates the sense of formality and freedom.

4. The pen should be suitable

Brush calligraphy pays attention to the central strokes, and pen calligraphy also pays attention to the correctness of strokes. If the pen is too tight and hard, or the tip of the pen sticks to paper, it is easy to hang paper and it is difficult to write fluently. The correct way to hold the pen is to be elastic and moderate, so that the water of the nib is sewn in the middle of the pen. In the process of writing, the strength is determined according to the thickness and the primary and secondary strokes. This technology requires learners to pay attention to observation and analysis when practicing their posts.

5. Be good at thinking.

To learn to write Chinese calligraphy, it is important to practice hard for a long time and be good at using your brain, otherwise the written words will only become a mere formality and be devoid of god. It is also necessary to overcome the shortcomings of not loving meditation, facing copybooks, being in a spirit, knowing only madness and not knowing the rules, and raising a pen is the dragon and phoenix dance. Only by studying hard and being good at thinking can we write calligraphy well.

Second, learn the "five essentials"

1: Learn from the ancients

China's calligraphy has a long history, with many famous artists and schools. Famous historical sites and beautiful outposts are even more dazzling and tireless. This undoubtedly provides us with extremely favorable conditions for learning calligraphy. Therefore, beginners should learn from the ancients, and don't rush for success. A teacher once said: "A real learner must first be a person who is good at learning from the ancients. We must' sink' ourselves, learn the law, study ancient inscriptions for a long time, and practice solid calligraphy skills. Then it is possible to integrate the strengths of a hundred schools of thought, become a personal style, and embark on our own calligraphy road-deep roots can flourish! "

2. Be good at reading posts.

"If you read a book a hundred times, you will understand its meaning." It is also important to learn pen calligraphy and read posts. Feelings after reading: read the words apart first, that is, read a word apart, first look at the beginning, line and receipt of each stroke, and then look at how to match the strokes, how to avoid them and how to arrange them harmoniously; Second, single-word reading, that is, only looking at a certain word, mainly depends on its frame structure, form and charm. Through the appreciation of one word, we can grasp the word-formation law and overall style of the post; Third, linking words, that is, linking several words or lines together, is mainly to find out how words work, how to expand and contract, and how to seek change in unity; Fourth, compare and read similar words, find out the words with the same or similar font in the post, compare the similarities and differences between the actual use of pens and words, especially how they treat the same strokes differently; Fifth, special words are stressed, and there are always some words with unique structures in each post. Memories should be imposed on such words so that they can be used conveniently when creating.

3. Always observe.

Open your eyes, observe widely and ponder carefully, so that you can have both. In addition to reading more famous inscriptions and accumulating beautiful glyphs on the chest, we should also carefully ponder the works of famous artists. Read more, read more, in order to learn from others, keep in mind and absorb the essence. Over time, the characters have reached the situation of "expected font" and "meaning comes first" in their minds, and at the same time, the various writing methods of some characters are organically dissolved in their own creation, which will avoid the similarity in the works and increase the sense of spirituality and change.

4. Don't be ashamed to ask "modest benefit, full loss". "Don't be ashamed to ask questions" is one of the most direct and convenient ways to acquire knowledge and experience.
