First of all, we should know what we are practicing.
You may wonder that practicing calligraphy is just practicing calligraphy. Why do you ask this question? Let me put it another way. What makes you think other people's handwriting looks good?
Maybe you will feel that this is a feeling, a comfort, a refreshing, or a beautiful and so on. . In fact, these are the results of our aesthetics, not the causes of the results.
For hard-written words, the first element is definitely structure, and a word with symmetrical and balanced structure will definitely look better than a word with unbalanced proportion. If you look closely, you will find that,
The figure is also very important, including three parts: starting, loading and receiving. In practical problems, there are two main reasons why we can't write well: first, the structure, including the center point, horizontal axis, vertical axis, stroke length, collocation ratio and so on. This word, we can't accurately grasp the body structure. The second is rhythm, because writing is the result of muscle memory. After a long period of muscle memory, many people's word feelings have been fixed and difficult to change, which is also the key factor for us to try many times and finally fail.
Next, I want to talk about what I did in this month.
Step 1. Find a regular script to copy every day, which is the slowest.
Purpose:
1, find the center of the word, because every word has a center, and we usually write around the center.
2. Find the vertical centerline and horizontal centerline of the word, that is, the cross on the copybook.
3. Grasp the writing rhythm.
Duration: 20 minutes to 30 minutes
The second step is to find the running script and read the copybook to practice, which is faster.
Purpose:
1, find the balance of words, and experience the sense of symmetry of structures such as up, down, left, right, up and down.
2. Find the proportion of words and experience the structural changes of a certain part of a specific word.
Specific operation:
1 is also a copybook. When writing, all the horizontal lines are parallel.
2. Constantly adjust the local structure of the word, such as the word "Qun", in which all horizontal lines are parallel, and then adjust the structure left and right to observe the changes of the word and find the law.
Duration: 20 minutes to 30 minutes
The third step is to find a favorite article to copy at a normal writing speed.
Purpose:
1, find the relationship and balance between words.
2, equivalent to practice, correct your muscle memory.
Duration: 20 minutes to 30 minutes.
Specific operation:
1, find a favorite article or poem to copy, normal writing speed.
2. After completion, observe the copybooks of articles with words connected together.
Finishing process carding:
Operating steps:
Step 1. Find a regular script to copy every day, which is the slowest. (20 minutes)
The second step is to find the running script and read the copybook to practice, which is faster. (30 minutes)
The third step is to find a favorite article to copy at a normal writing speed. (20 minutes)
Precautions:
1, don't be greedy, just practice one article at a time. For example, practice only one regular script. Running scripts is similar.
2, regular script: attention must be slow, find the center. Running script: We must try to change the local structure of words repeatedly. Finally, when copying, you must read it several times and find faults.
Last words:
1 first of all, you must believe that practicing calligraphy must not be a matter of rote memorization.
2. Stick to it for one month.
