Of course, self-study of calligraphy depends on practice, but there must be good methods.

1, you'd better go to the bookstore to buy a practical college calligraphy course and read it carefully, so as to have a comprehensive understanding of calligraphy and master more comprehensive basic knowledge. This is very necessary for your development in calligraphy and sticking to the correct direction and road.

2. Choose a copybook you like and copy it carefully. Generally speaking, we should learn in the order of writing and cursive writing. When you reach a satisfactory level (if you keep practicing every day, it is estimated that it will take six months to one and a half years), you can go to the teacher with your own practice, and then ask the teacher for advice to understand the teacher's guidance, because you have practical experience and the effect is good. So I didn't ask you to learn from the teacher in the first place. Adults teach themselves, but children are another matter.

Calligraphy is a profound art and knowledge. If you want to do well, you must practice hard, persevere and persist all your life. In addition to determination and confidence, we should expand our knowledge and improve our cultural quality and accomplishment with the continuous growth of our level, which is helpful for learning calligraphy well. As for what to learn, you can gradually realize it in practice, so don't say too much now.

4. How to practice calligraphy? Some people think that the more you write, the better. In fact, writing too much may not be effective. There must be a good way. You buy a book you like, such as Preface to Lanting by Wang Xizhi (known as the best running script in the world) or Preface to the Holy Teaching. You should look carefully at how every word in the copybook is written first. Read and think repeatedly. At first, don't be greedy. Write one or two words every day, and then gradually increase. Three or five words a day, seven or eight words, a dozen words. In short, not much, not fast, but good. What are you looking at and thinking about? When you look at the shape of a stroke, what is its shape? Second, look at the font, what shape the word is, that is, how the strokes that make up the word are arranged and combined, which is long, which is short, which is big and which is small. Third, look at how excessive this word is, that is, how the upper and lower words are connected. Fourth, look at how the lines are related. If you read it clearly, you have to understand that how people write and how the pen moves is the path and order of writing. Only by reading clearly, thinking clearly and working hard can you write well. You have the desire to write good words, the desire to write good methods, and your perseverance. You can be sure that you can see the initial effect in ten days, make great changes in one month, and be impressed in three months. In less than half a year, your good handwriting has been practiced. Give it a try!
