Basic knowledge of calligraphy practice 1. A little knowledge of calligraphy
The seal script of Qin Dynasty is also called "Xiao Zhuan" or "Qin Zhuan". It is different from the graceful and complicated style of Da Zhuan in Zhou Dynasty, and it is the development and evolution of Zhou Dynasty philology. Looking at the genre of Xiao Zhuan again, it has both round and uneven characteristics and neat and mellow style, which can be described as "beautiful and smooth, steady and dignified".
The characteristic of official script in Han dynasty is to simplify the "round tone" of seal script in Qin dynasty and make it "horizontal and vertical", but it is easy to seal. In other words, the whole glyph is mainly composed of horizontal straight lines. It is much easier for people to write and use this kind of characters in an emergency than to write seal script. To write a good official script, we must master eight important laws: swallowtail silkworm head, out of round, full of twists and turns, decisive, heavy turbidity and too clear, perfect two silkworms, and swallows with different tails. In addition, we should master the structure and special writing method of using official script.
Calligraphy in Han Dynasty evolved from Xiao Zhuan to Li Shu, and a new cursive script was further developed on the basis of Li Shu. This cursive script originated from the folk characters of reducing strokes. Because when people exchange letters frequently, in order to write faster, it is inevitable to save pen and continue writing, so it has formed a unique cursive style intentionally or unintentionally.
Calligraphy flourished in the Three Kingdoms period as well as in the Han Dynasty. Eight-part essay in the Eastern Han Dynasty evolved into "Cao Zhang" and "modern cursive script" due to the decrease of strokes and sloppy brushwork, and it didn't become a modern regular script until the Three Kingdoms period, and "running script" became popular.
What is "regular script"? Kay's meaning is correct and exemplary. Regular script is transformed from "eight points" of official script. In addition to the "eight-point" swallowtail and twists and turns, it definitely focuses on "straight and square." Grasping a pen and writing should be meticulous, not a little frugal and sloppy. This font is called regular script. Regular script is also called "regular script" and "regular script". In terms of strokes, regular script is not as colorful as official script, but it is graceful, vigorous, concise and correct, even more peaceful and vivid than official script. Through the efforts of great calligraphers of past dynasties, many different styles of regular script have been passed down to future generations.
What is a running script? Running script is between block letters and cursive script, which is written casually, without block letters, not as formal as cursive script, and not as dissolute as cursive script. As the word "walk" explains, it is neither a slow walk with square steps nor a rush with flying steps, but a free start and a free walk. Therefore, the ancients called this font "running script" the most appropriate.
The genre of cursive script is almost connected with the whole word. Although there is occasional disconnection between words, the upper and lower strokes run through, echoing, caring and connected by blood from beginning to end, and there is a kind of momentum of dancing with pen and ink in one go. I have been studying calligraphy for more than 50 years since I was six years old, but I am more interested in cursive script, which I think is the highest realm of calligraphy. In the process of writing, the standing position of each word seems to be full of danger, but it is wonderful to buckle firmly in danger, so that the font is not suspected of being skewed and soft, but has a delicate flying posture.
2. How can parents help their children practice calligraphy well?
Let me answer the first question, about the basic brushwork you must know. If you practice basic brushwork, you will make rapid progress. You can write the basic brushwork with more practice. You can also buy some copybooks to describe it.
Qiu Jin learning network calligraphy basic brushwork teaches you to write 30 episodes of calligraphy art video album, 1, the writing method of points (1), and the characteristics of points: the head is pointed and the tail is round. Its back is arched and its abdomen is flat.
It's like a single clove of garlic, and it spills like a drop of water. (2) Right lower point writing method: When writing, gently pick up the pen and press down to the right.
Write slowly and heavily, and return to the front to collect the pen moderately. Left and right points: the left point is opposite to the right point, and the right point is the lower right point in front.
Alignment: Pick up the pen lightly at the left point and press it down to the right; Click the pen with the right mouse button and press it again, turn the front to the left and flick the pen gently. Three-point water: the first and second strokes are all points on the lower right, and the third stroke is a painting.
At the end of four points: the first point is the lower left point, and the other three points are the lower right point. The second and third points should be smaller, and the first and fourth points should be bigger. 2, write horizontally (1), understand the characteristics of horizontal: in several basic strokes, horizontal painting is the most used.
A word plays the role of a beam. Therefore, when starting, writing and collecting pens, every action should be clearly explained and not vague.
(2) writing methods. Long horizontal: start the pen slightly heavier, then lift it slightly, collect the pen from left to right, take the left low and the right high, and tilt to the horizontal line.
Finally, go back to the front to collect the pen. Left tip is horizontal: the pen is light, and it is forced to the right, and the trend is slightly higher, and the pen is heavy.
This kind of stroke looks like a flat stroke, but the stroke moves from left to right. The right tip is horizontal: the pen is heavy, and gradually slides upward to the right, showing an upturned shape. You don't pause when you collect the pen, but you take it lightly, but you can't get a sharp edge.
Oblique pen: Start with a slightly heavier pen, and then gently lift it to the right. The transverse slope is greater than the long transverse slope.
The pen is slightly closed, heavy and slow. 3, write vertically.
(1), the characteristics of vertical: vertical plays the role of a pillar in a word, so you should write straight, not crooked, as vertical, straight and powerful as possible. Some people even call vertical painting direct painting.
Only by writing in this way can we keep our center of gravity and gain a firm foothold. (2) The writing method is vertical: the pen is slightly heavier, draw to the right, and then slowly draw down after dinner.
Go to the end, have a good meal, and then go back to the front to collect the pen. The whole stroke is straight and not stiff, giving people a light and heavy feeling.
Hang the needle vertically: lower the pen to the right, then face down to write evenly. A little slower in the middle.
Keep it straight, slightly faster, like hanging a needle, and the front end should be tapered. Short and vertical: the pen should be heavy, and write after dinner until the end.
Stop writing, stop trying. When you go back to the front, slowly collect the pen.
4. How to write. (1), the characteristics of the school: "school" painting is a stroke extending to the left.
Its morphological changes are diverse. No matter how you change it, you should pay attention to the characteristics of posture stretching.
The change of head and tail thickness should not be too sudden, and the radian should be appropriate. The strength should be carried out to the tip of the pen.
(2) The writing method starts from the right, moves vertically downwards, and strokes slowly in the middle, thus accumulating pen gestures. When approaching the pen collection, push it down to the left.
When you leave, you should carry the capacity to the end, and the front should be fast. 5. The way of writing.
(1), the characteristics of Si: Si painting is a stroke extending to the lower right. It is the main stroke in Chinese characters.
Si writing should have ups and downs, and the upper edge should be straight and not concave. Feet should be strong enough, not lacking horns, not dragging down like a fox's tail, and not too high.
(2) The writing method is straight: use the pen lightly. On the machine, use the pen to the lower right, and the lines gradually become heavier. At the end of the stroke, you should stop the pen a little and then draw it.
The bottom should be flat. Horizontal stroke: after the front stroke, turn left and lower right to run parallel to the arc. Finally, press the stroke and quickly pull out the previous stroke to the right.
The bottom edge of si should be inclined to the upper right. The whole stroke ends on the same plane.
Short stroke: gently put the pen on the right. Line from fine to thick, pause, turn the pen to the right, and force the pen out.
6. How to write the hook? (1) The "hook" painting is written with other strokes, including vertical hooks and horizontal hooks.
Hook painting presents different forms according to the needs of Chinese character structure collocation. (2), writing method vertical hook: the pen is slightly heavier, and the pen is written.
When the pen is close to the pen, it will hook out obliquely to the left and form an acute angle with the vertical. Hook: Hook is also called curved color.
When writing, use the pen tip to gently drop on the paper, from light to heavy. From top left to bottom right, double turn to bottom left, showing right bend.
Turn left near the pen collection, pause, and tick off the pen. Vertical hook: draw vertically with a pen, then bend the draft to the right and move it to the hook, and fold the pen to the hook.
In the process of writing, pay attention to make the vertical picture fall to the left. Elbows should be round without edges and corners.
Oblique hook: write slowly to the right with the pen slightly down. When you get close to the hook, turn the pen hard to hook it out after gaining power.
Hold your chest and abdomen in the whole stroke, don't bend. Horizontal hook: put the pen gently, from fine to thick, slightly inclined to the right and down, then translated to the right, and finally lifted out to the right and up.
The hook should face left. Cross hook: the pen in the east is slightly heavier, and the pen in the right direction is evenly applied.
At the corner, make a short stop to the right, and quickly hook to the left after gaining momentum. 7. How to write the discount?
(1), the characteristics of the fold: the "fold" painting, like the hook painting, is attached to other strokes. Often appears in Chinese characters.
The change of fold mainly depends on its angle. (2) The writing method is vertical: the pen is slightly heavier and awkward.
At the turning point, write back to the left, cross out the right and go back to the front. There should be an arc at the turning point, which is elastic.
Vertical bending: like vertical painting, a pen should have radian and radian at the turning point. Pause when closing the pen and go back to the front.
Like a goose floating on the water, it draws an arc at the corner and turns slowly. Cross-folding: Cross-folding is first of all cross-folding, and the folding angle is also 90 degrees, just like the bending of human arms.
Bend slightly to the left horizontally and vertically. That's what it says. If it breaks, it will break.
Folding: Start the pen again and apply force to the left. Stop at the turning point, turn the pen to the right and pick it up quickly.
8. The way of writing. (1), the characteristics of Ti: "Ti" painting, also called "Tiao", is a stroke selected from the lower left corner to the upper right corner of Chinese characters.
Write a summary and recall the pen method of writing short notes. This is actually the opposite of short skimming.
(2) The writing method is flat: start the pen with force, and after a short pause, quickly pick it out with force to the upper right. In order to gain momentum to increase the pen force, the pen can be reversed.
At the same time, be careful not to pull the handle too long, which looks weak. Vertical lifting: used for writing.
3. Basic knowledge of calligraphy
Basic knowledge of calligraphy Calligraphy is one of the traditional arts in China.
It is the art of writing Chinese characters with a brush to express the author's spiritual beauty. Its basic requirements are: one is to use a soft brush, and the other is to write Chinese characters with rich images.
Therefore, there are two meanings: first, it refers to the rules of calligraphy, which mainly include methods such as holding a pen, using a pen, stippling, structure and distribution; Refers to the art of expressing the author's spiritual beauty by writing Chinese characters. It expresses the author's personality, interest, knowledge, temperament and other spiritual factors with the help of exquisite techniques and vivid modeling, with the focus on "heart painting"
The combination of the two forms China's calligraphy art. Therefore, from the elements of calligraphy, it includes three aspects: first, brushwork, which requires skilled use of brush, and correct fingering, wrist, body, brushwork and pen and ink; The second is the pen gesture.
It is required to properly organize the relationship between stippling and stippling, between words and between lines; The third is the brushwork. It is required to show the author's temperament, interest, learning elements and personality in the writing process.
In style and style, it is even more colorful. China's calligraphy art has a history of over 3,000 years. The reason why it has become an art mainly depends on the fact that China people are good at turning practical things into exquisite art, and it is also closely related to China's unique brush.
Its characters brew the soul of calligraphy art with the characteristics of image conception and imagery. The square configuration with brilliant conception and posture constitutes the formal basis of calligraphy art, and its tool is "only soft and strange", which can give birth to the charm of Fiona Fang's hiding, advancing and retreating, thickness, thickness, wetness, cadence and convergence.
Break and follow-up momentum, both rigid and flexible; With special paper and ink, the art of calligraphy is more unpredictable. Charming.
Calligraphy has not only become a national art to express the highest artistic conception and sentiment, but also ranks first among all arts. Calligraphy is not only popular all over the world in China, but also has already gone abroad and become a medium for spreading friendship. It is influential in the eastern world and attracts the attention of the western world.
Composition refers to the method of arranging and arranging the relationship between words and lines in the whole work. That is the "white cloth" of the whole work.
Also known as "big rules". Traditionally, it is also called the arrangement of one-word stippling, and the relationship between one-word arrangement and numbers is "small chapter method"
Zhang Shen explained calligraphy in Ming Dynasty: "The ancients used a writing method to write articles. Composition, article method and final structure are all corresponding.
Therefore, the cloud says:' One is divided into one word rule; A word is the owner of the last article. Dong Qichang's "Essays on Painting Zen Rooms: Comment on Books" in Ming Dynasty said: "The ancients took the composition of books as a major event and covered the so-called thick lines.
See Mi Chi in fine print, and write an elegant collection of West Garden. It's ten thousand fans, straight as a string. There must be another way, but you should pay attention to the rules and regulations on weekdays. Xu Lanting by the right army is the first in ancient and modern times, and its words are reflected, small or big, and all the things it likes are in the law, so it is also a masterpiece. "
It can be seen that the number of sheets is important in a calligraphy work. When writing, we should deal with the white cloth in words, word for word and between lines, so that stippling echoes stippling, words keep pace with emotion, and lines reflect each other. If you are self-sufficient, fluent, exquisite and harmonious, you will have the effect of "gold in the word and jade in the line". Generally speaking, there are three forms of cloth white: first, there are ranks, second, there are ranks (or ranks), and third, there are no ranks, which may have the artificial beauty of "picking gold by mistake" or the natural beauty of "hibiscus".
The method of writing and drawing with a pen. China's paintings and calligraphy are dominated by lines, and the tools used are all sharp pens. In order to enrich the line stippling of calligraphy and painting, we should first pay attention to writing, and grasp the weight, speed and correctness when lifting the pen.
Straightening, straightening and other methods are called "brushwork". Zhang Tang Huai Guandao's "Forbidden Classics in Yutang, Digested with a Pen" says: Generally speaking, the brushwork is eight types of stippling, and the word "forever" is prepared.
Therefore, Yuan Zhao Mengfu said in the Postscript of Lanting: "It is not easy to use a pen through the ages, because it takes a long time." Ink method is also called "blood method".
One day: using ink. The predecessors called it ink painting, and the blood of the word is also.
Therefore, when writing books in the field, I am extremely particular. Too light ink will damage the color, too thick ink will delay the pen.
Must be "eager to live, talk about it." Song Jiangkui's "Continuation of Book Spectrum with Ink" says: "To write a script, you should do it, but not too dry.
When the grass is dry, it is good to moisten it, and it is risky to dry it. It is not known that thick ink leads to sluggish pen and dry ink leads to dry pen. "
Bao Qing Chen Shi's "The Story of the Art Boat II Series" said: "Painting and calligraphy are both based on pens and formed in ink, so ink painting is a key to calligraphy. In fact, the pen is heavy, but it is floating.
..... "The style of pen and ink, on the one hand, often varies from person to person. For example, the thick ink in the Northern Song Dynasty is practical, while the thick ink in the Southern Song Dynasty is flexible. Liu Yong likes to use thick ink, while Meng Lou just uses light ink.
On the other hand, it is often different because of different book styles and paper properties. Second: the method of grinding ink.
Su Song Jianyi's "Four Books of Study: Ink Spectrum" said: "Learning ink is like a disease, and it is important to be even without mud." Grinding ink should be cold, and it will give birth to light when it is cold.
Don't heat the ink, it will blister when heated. The cover avoids the urgency and ink fever of its research.
Li said, "users won't stop for a long time, but the dust pollutes each other for a long time and the glue will die." It's too dull to write. "
Chen Yuan-Yi once said in the book "The Essentials of Hanlin Meat Method": "The method of grinding ink is both pressing and pushing, and the operation is nearly folded." "Never use inkstone to grind the ink, so that the ink will stagnate, and you must temporarily worry about it with water drops." "Don't grind your own ink, your hands will tremble and your bones will be strong. It is also a taboo. "
Structure is also called "knot", "frame" and "structure". Refers to the arrangement and layout of each dot.
Chinese characters are formal, and calligraphy is "metaphysics" (Qing Kang Youwei), so knot is particularly important. Yuan Qian's Postscript to Lanting: "Calligraphy is based on the use of pens, and it also requires labor to form words."
All kinds of fonts of Chinese characters are connected and matched with dots and strokes. The length, short, thick, thin, prone, upturned, contracted and stretched strokes, and the width, narrow, high, low, narrow and straight radicals constitute different forms of each character. In order to make the stroke matching of Chinese characters appropriate, appropriate and uniform, it is necessary to study its structure.
As Feng Ban said in the Pure Book of Songs in the Qing Dynasty: "Learn the frame first, and the ancients call it a knot; Learn to use a pen when the shelf is clear. You can see the stone tablet on the shelf, so you must use a pen to create it.
Jiezi, Jinren.
4. Some common sense needed to practice calligraphy and how to calm yourself down.
1. Which font should I start practicing? The traditional way to learn calligraphy is to start from Tang Kai, and practice Nanbei Han Liqin seal script on the basis of writing regular script in reverse time.
Another way of thinking is that starting from the immature characteristics of young people's hand muscles, we can start from Qin Zhuan, which has not changed much, from cursive script to regular script. These two concepts have their own reasons.
However, I think the hard pen calligraphy we learn is essentially different from the brush calligraphy mentioned above. We can't follow its practice method, and we can't be confused by the traditional concept of learning brush first and then learning hard pen. Hard pen is widely used now. You can still write hard pen if you can't write well in calligraphy, so it is necessary not to take a detour quickly.
What font should I practice in hard pen writing? In my opinion, starting from the characteristics of young people's hand muscle development and the characteristics of uniform strokes and less changes in hard pen calligraphy, we should start with fonts that never require fast strokes and heavy changes. It is best to print in bold. The beauty of this font mainly lies in its structure. We can master the structure of fonts by trying to figure out and analyzing bold.
On this basis, you can choose your favorite font according to your personality and hobbies and practice hard. 2. What should I practice when practicing calligraphy? First of all, practice your eyesight, that is, read the post carefully.
Huang Tingjian, a calligrapher in the Song Dynasty, said: "The ancients learned to write, not all of them copied. They often hang ancient calligraphy works on the wall, watch them intently, and decide to start writing. " Ou Yangxun in the Tang Dynasty found the inscription written by Suo Jing in the Jin Dynasty, and was reluctant to leave, so he sat down and read it for three days.
The more posts you read, the higher your horizon, and you will know how to write. There is an idiom called "eyes are superior but eyes are inferior". I think: eye height is the premise of hand height.
If you can't find beauty, you don't know what beauty is, let alone create it. Many students think that scribbling is the so-called running script, and the reason why ugliness is beautiful is because "the eyes are superior and the eyes are inferior."
Secondly, we should practice our brains or our hearts. On the basis of careful observation, we should keep well-written model figures firmly in mind and engrave their glyphs deeply in our minds. Whenever the word is mentioned, we can immediately guess the shape of the word on the copybook.
Do it with confidence and words in your heart. Third, we should practice our hands.
Practice your eyes and brain to find out how to write words. You can think of the best effect of words in your mind, but it may not be written in your hand, because your brain may not be able to command your hand, and your hand may not be able to command your pen.
Hand training is to achieve the consistency of heart and hand and handwriting, so hand training is also very important. Hand training mainly refers to strength, wrist strength and hand feeling.
If you write for a long time, you will feel sore fingers, sore wrists, hands that don't work, and exercise more. This phenomenon will disappear. Students who often help teachers copy questions on the blackboard and students who run blackboard newspapers often write quickly and well. This is how their finger strength and wrist strength are trained.
Also pay attention to practice the sense of touch, let the brain command the hand, and feel that the pen has become a part of the hand and an extension of the hand. Hands can easily command the pen, think fast, think slow, think light, think heavy, and write whatever effect you want. Fourth, we should practice structure, because the key to practicing Chinese characters is to master the structure of Chinese characters.
The structure of a word refers to the proportion of stroke length and the relationship between strokes. Xie Xiaodong sang in the song "China People": "The favorite character is the square character taught by Mr. Wang, and the square character should be like him …" The square character summarizes the structural characteristics of Chinese characters.
I have mastered the structure of Chinese characters, and I have written square and beautiful bold characters. With a little change of strokes, I can write Chinese characters in various fonts, such as Song Ti, Wei Ti, Kai Ti, Imitation Song Ti, Pang Ti, Sima Ti and Li Shu. If you can't master the structure of Chinese characters, no matter how the strokes of Chinese characters are decorated and beautified, they are ugly.
Therefore, mastering the structure of characters and writing bold characters is the key and foundation for practicing all fonts. Fifth, we should practice strokes.
Many students have practiced calligraphy. Since they began to practice regular script, they have forgotten many writing rules and only remember pens. As a result, the words written are very cumbersome, like ghost symbols.
I advocate practicing in bold, mastering fonts and canceling pens. Let me introduce several common strokes and the common problems of most students when writing these strokes: ① At a certain point, there is a stroke movement from upper left to lower right.
Note that "points" are also long and cannot be rounded into points. (2) Put the pen horizontally and divide it equally from left to right.
The key is to be "horizontal and vertical", not high at one end and low at the other, nor wavy. The length should be controlled according to the font of the square characters, not too short or too long.
(3) vertical pen, vertical pen from top to bottom. The key is "vertical to be straight", and it can't be skewed left and right, let alone written as a vertical hook.
The length should be controlled according to the font of the square characters, not too short or too long. (4) Left, from the upper right to the lower left, no dots or horizontal left.
⑤ Folding: When writing a folding pen, the folding angle should be square, not round. Don't put the pen heavily on the corner and write it as two obtuse angles from the shoulder, but as a right angle.
The words written in this way, if written with a ballpoint pen, are small round artistic words similar to matchsticks; If you write with a pen, it is in standard bold type. Although the strokes are monotonous, they are beautiful as long as the structure is accurate.
Just like squatting is the basic skill of practicing martial arts, horizontal and vertical is the basic skill of writing Chinese characters. Many people can't write well because they are uneven, vertically arranged and inaccurate in structure.
If the structure is wrong, no matter how rich the strokes are, you can't write good words. 3. General steps of practicing Chinese characters On the basis of practicing bold characters, mastering the structure of Chinese characters and practicing basic skills, you can choose your favorite fonts for practice.
The process of choosing fonts is called post selection. On the basis of selecting posts, it goes through five steps: reading posts, describing posts, copying posts, carrying posts and creating posts. The first step is to read the post.
We all know the pronunciation of the posted Chinese characters, so we don't need to read them any more. Read what? Read fonts, read structures, read strokes, and analyze the relationship between stroke characteristics and strokes of Chinese characters.
For example, when we read the word "Zhong" in bold, we should read that a vertical line of the word "Zhong" passes through the middle of the word "Kou". The horizontal line of the word "Kou" is slightly flat, which is twice as long as the vertical line. The long vertical line in the middle is divided into two sections with the same length by the lower horizontal line of the word "Kou".
5. What should I pay attention to when practicing calligraphy? What are the essentials?
People's need to practice writing is not spontaneous, but gradually formed under the guidance of practical experience and educators, thus generating emotion and strong interest.
Only in this way can we better stimulate the motivation of practicing calligraphy. Otherwise, I'm not going to practice calligraphy, so I can barely cope. It must be a slippery brushwork, loose structure and slow progress; This will affect the interest in writing.
Will is especially important for people who practice writing. People realize the importance of writing, and after they have the desire to practice calligraphy, they should make plans, choose practice methods and practice step by step according to the requirements of practicing calligraphy.
This kind of psychological activity, which consciously determines the purpose, dominates and regulates one's actions, and overcomes difficulties to achieve the expected purpose, is the process of tempering the will. It is not easy to practice good handwriting. As the saying goes, "write a word for a hundred days."
Practicing calligraphy should go through a process of repeated training, gradual improvement and formation of writing skills. In this process, you will feel bored, the practice time is difficult to guarantee, and the effect is not obvious.
At this time, if there is no good will to practice calligraphy, there will be a phenomenon of abandoning the pen and not practicing. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the exercise of the will quality of practicing Chinese characters, overcome the difficulties encountered in the practice process with patience, perseverance and confidence, and take time out of your busy schedule to persevere.
It is necessary to make long plans and short arrangements, seek quality instead of quantity, and write and practice every day. If you can write two or three words every day, you can practice more than two most commonly used words in two years.
In short, we should make progress slowly, don't be discouraged, and our achievements are obviously not worthy of pride. As long as we don't stop and practice hard, we will eventually reach our ideal destination. Second, step by step and step by step are the universal principles for people to learn scientific and cultural knowledge.
This principle requires learning according to the logical system of disciplines and the development order of human cognitive ability, and gradually and systematically mastering basic knowledge and skills. This principle is determined by the strict logical system of subject knowledge itself, and it is also the objective requirement of people's understanding and ability development from shallow to deep, from easy to difficult, and there is an "order" to follow.
The structure of Chinese characters is a logical system from simple to complex, with strokes as the smallest unit. Practice writing should follow this systematic order and practice step by step.
However, emphasizing step by step is not the only order. Because the relationship between strokes, radicals and structures of Chinese characters is interrelated and influential.
For example, the strokes of Chinese characters and the structure of Chinese characters, in order, should practice the strokes first, and then practice the structure, because the strokes are the basis of the structure. However, when practicing strokes, it is not enough to practice strokes alone, but also with the structure of words, because the same stroke has different forms of expression in different word structures. Only by combining strokes with the structure of specific words can we gradually write qualified strokes.
At the same time, in the process of practice, we should also determine the key points and difficulties of practice according to the content of practice, and we should not allocate time evenly, blindly seek more and faster, be down-to-earth, step by step, make more efforts to master the main points of writing, and write articles well to achieve the expected goals. To practice calligraphy according to the rules is to practice calligraphy according to the statutes. Only by following the rules can we practice calligraphy according to the rules.
In addition to the above-mentioned step by step, we should pay special attention to the word "serious" when practicing calligraphy. To practice calligraphy, we must first be calm and enter a quiet world. Do it: calm down and write slowly, read posts and patterns, write first, one by one, and write better than the other.
Beginners should master the structure and size of Chinese characters, practice on paper with grids, and make full use of grids to understand and master the structural characteristics and types of square Chinese characters. The way to practice Chinese characters should be copying and copying, and gradually master the writing skills of Chinese characters in the process of copying.
Third, the combination of copying and mastering the law The experience of learning books and practicing calligraphy in ancient and modern times proves that copying copybooks is the only way and an effective method. Copying is to put the copybook under transparent calligraphy paper and draw it with strokes according to the words appearing on the copybook. The handwriting required to be described cannot exceed the stroke trajectory of the words on the copybook.
If copying a brush copybook, the strokes described should follow the center line of the strokes on the copybook; If you copy a pen copybook, the strokes described should be exactly the same as those of the words on the copybook. In this way, over time, you can learn the line trace and font structure of the words on the copybook.
Sticking is to put the copybook next to the calligraphy paper. According to the calligraphy and painting "gourd" on the copybook, the strokes are required to be similar, and attention should be paid to the changes of thickness, rhythm and thickness. In this way, over time, you can learn the meaning of the words in the copybook.
Because it is difficult to copy a book, you should copy it first. Because copying and copying are two complementary means of learning books and practicing calligraphy, we should combine copying and copying step by step.
In the process of copying copybooks, we should also pay attention to the following problems: first, we should be single-minded. People who have just started to learn calligraphy should concentrate on practicing after choosing copybooks. We shouldn't change copybooks at will. This is because each copybook has its own characteristics and system. Write this today, write that tomorrow, and you can't write the last one.
Only when one copybook is done and written can other copybooks learn from others. Second, reading copybooks carefully is the premise of copying copybooks.
Reading posts is like reading a book, in order to know the truth, not just reading or copying books. Only by reading and reading carefully can you be impressed, write like it, and remember it well.
For the words on the copybook, how to write strokes, how to arrange structures, and how to arrange rules. Everyone should carefully ponder and find out the rules, so as to write interesting and vivid.
Third, we should pay attention to the effect of practicing calligraphy. In the process of copying copybooks, don't blindly pursue copying more and faster, but pay attention to the actual effect of copying, so that once you write, you will make progress and once you copy, you will gain. Only by concentrating on the war of annihilation and copying difficult words repeatedly can we achieve tangible gains and make continuous progress.
Fourth, we should pay attention to mastering the law. In the process of copying, don't stop at understanding and practicing each specific word, but pay attention to summing up the differences and connections between words, so as to understand and master the similarities and differences of a writing method.
6. Methods of practicing calligraphy
I just graduated from college, and I have been learning to practice calligraphy for some time.
My handwriting used to be ugly and was often laughed at. The main reason for poor handwriting is that I don't know the correct way to write strokes.
The most effective way is to practice writing for a period of time. The strokes of literature and art enlarge the strokes, which require higher precision than pen strokes.
When you are a little skilled in calligraphy, you will be very skilled in writing calligraphy. It is not recommended to improve the aesthetic feeling of words by writing pen words at the beginning, because it is more difficult and the effect is not obvious.
Don't think that practicing brush is a long process. People in their twenties practice fast because they have strong understanding and acceptance. I was a high school student, practicing calligraphy with primary school students. Obviously, I feel that I am learning faster than them.
You'd better find a teacher and go to his home to learn that kind twice a week, and the tuition is not expensive. This combination will be effective after a little self-study for about three months.
You can leave me a message and communicate with me if you have any questions.
