Make calligraphy easier!

In daily writing, calligraphy practitioners often encounter all kinds of strange calligraphy practice problems, can your problems be effectively solved? And what are the chinese alphabet practice methods that are worthy of reference for all of us?

What should I pay attention to when I start and when I finish?

Starting a pen together means starting a pen together. In different strokes, the way of coming out is different. The control of the pen by finger strength is the key to the writing style, and the control of finger and wrist strength is also the core factor in determining the brushwork. Not only brushes, but also hard pens. When practicing, you can try to write corresponding lines with different strengths to feel the influence of strength, or turn the pen in your hand when writing, so that the pen tip touches the front, side, and side of the paper respectively, and observe the "eight sides of the hard pen".

Solution: Special practice pen control.

how to read posts

You can try to improve your ability to read posts from these aspects.

The first is "meditation". When we can practice calligraphy, our heart must be on writing, and there should not be too many people with distracting thoughts. The mind calmed down, and then "scrutinized". Use your eyes to compare the original post, whether it is a current post or an old post. Carefully observe the difference between the words in the original post and the words we wrote.

Start by observing the angle and position of your brush strokes. After careful observation with the eyes is "careful thinking". We have to think about it. Don't overthink it, think about the relationship between strokes and why. Consider these two points.

Finally, and most importantly, "tenacious". After we have read it carefully and thought about it with our brains, we will start writing.

How to post?

In calligraphy, it is said to be copied, that is, drawn with a red pen, written on a book with a contrasting original manuscript. The foundation of Lintie is reading. After reading the original post, you can start temporary writing. After the temporary writing, you should compare it with the original post to check for deficiencies. When you post, you can compare your text with the original post in the following dimensions: stroke position, stroke length, stroke angle, stroke strength, stroke speed, stroke arc.

How to use the power of fingers?

Fingers and wrists are the core factors that determine the brushwork, not only brushes, but also hard pens, but they are not obvious, so few people care about them. Finger strength and finger position are important factors in expressing brushwork.

One-finger exercises can be done by using these positions:

Normal writing style, both paper and pen are writing lines around 60°;

Write with a pen, so that the pen and paper are 90° writing lines;

To write with the pen next to it, move the pen to the side and touch the side of the pen tip to the paper. As you practice, look at these three writing angles.

How to use wrist strength?

The use of wrist strength is an important factor in expressing writing style. When writing long strokes, you can generally control the pen with your wrist. Wrist strength will also make writing more stable. When practicing, you can try to draw a line on the paper with a pen, keep your fingers still, and feel the strength of your wrist.

What should I do if a line of characters is always written crookedly?

Contemporary people write mostly through horizontal writing. There may be several important reasons why a line of writing is difficult to write flat. The development of the center, center of gravity, and internal control structure of the characters is not smooth, the line spacing is not obvious, the line spacing is different, and the writing ability does not have a unified style, etc., which will affect our handwriting and make it difficult to write a line. Too many negative social factors can not only make the handwriting uneven, but also make the handwriting appear messy.

Among many factors, horizontal painting is the most important. In daily writing, the text is most beautiful when the horizontal frame is between 1° and 12°. If it exceeds or falls below this angle range, the center of gravity of the characters will move up and down, so naturally the lines of characters cannot be kept horizontal.

Solution: Carry out special horizontal drawing exercises; use force when writing to keep the handwriting stable. Horizontal paintings can be horizontal, but vertical paintings must be written straight to be stable.

What should you do if you can't write well?

On the premise of the same level, it is difficult to balance writing well and writing fast. The only way to write well and fast is to improve your writing skills. So it's normal to scribble quickly.

Solution to the problem: On the basis of a good structure control, you can try to learn running script and cursive script by yourself.

If you can't write well without calligraphy, you should first look at the way you practice writing. A common way to practice Chinese characters is to copy them. To copy a copy is to paint the copy red, and to copy a copy is to compare the script to the book and write it. Lin Tie can be divided into two types: Lin Tie and Lin Tie. On the surface, I read the original post to write, experience the delicacy of the characters, and learn the structure of the characters. Comprehension and memory and experience. Backed by memory. Therefore, if the copying is not good, it means that there is no intention of copying, but just practice, without deep understanding and memory.

Solution: Strengthen the practice of reading posts.

What should I do if I practice a lot of words but it doesn’t work?

Writing too much is inefficient. Many times it is because there is no correct practice method. If you practice correctly, you can get twice the result with half the effort.

Solution to the problem: Check the existing practice teaching method and replace it with a new practice design method.

If you didn't practice the formal script, can you practice running the script?

From a professional point of view, regular script and running script are closely related. But as far as non-professionals are concerned, the correlation between regular script and running script is weak. If it is only for daily use by adults, you can practice running script directly. However, school-age children must start practicing calligraphy from Kaishu. Because children's comprehension ability is not enough, writing regular script is not only conducive to correct writing strokes, but also conducive to the stability of character growth.

How to practice formal script, formal script, run script?

First of all, you have to judge what kind of book is suitable for you to practice.

When practicing calligraphy for the first time, the practice design methods of the three fonts (block script, Xing Kai, and running script) have both commonalities and differences. No matter what kind of calligraphy students practice, it is not required to develop quickly in the early stage of temporary posts. Instead, we should pay attention to comparing the original posts, and at the same time, enterprises pay attention to learning the sense of rhythm (modern posts) and charm (ancient posts). The difference and innovation is that the regular script is more peaceful, and the running script and running script are richer and more vivid.

Therefore, the practice of regular script tends to be correct and rigorous, while the practice of regular script and running script tends to be round and elegant.
