The Qin Dynasty is a pioneering period in the history of calligraphy in our country, all the bodies are new, Li Sichuang small seal, he wrote "Taishan Langya", "Weight Edict", etc., the font is slender, horizontal columns, vertical rows, laid the foundation for today's square Chinese characters.

The Han Dynasty was the foundation period of calligraphy, and the official script compiled by Cheng Miao in the Qin Dynasty gradually developed and became the dominant calligraphy style in the Han Dynasty. At this point, all kinds of Chinese characters have been available, laying the foundation for the development of the art of calligraphy.

The Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties were the peak period of calligraphy art, and the stubbornness of Zhong Xuan and Wang Xizhi made the art of calligraphy reach an unprecedented height. Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface" is known as"The first line of books in the world", which was regarded as a national treasure in the Tang Dynasty.

In modern times, the art of calligraphy is more colorful, Lixingshu, Licassiao, Lishu, Caoshu, Xingshu, Lishu, Seal comprehensive modern calligraphy, etc., a hundred schools of thought resonate.

Here's how to practice calligraphy:

1. The pen barrel is vertical.

The pen is positive, which means that the pen barrel should be basically perpendicular to the paper surface, in order to ensure that the center of the pen, specifically the pen barrel is vertical, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the eight-sided front of the pen point.

2. Refers to the real palm and the void.

Finger solid, use your fingertips to pinch the pen, not use your knuckles to hook the pen. Because the fingertip part is sensitive, it is easy to control subtle changes in the pen edge. The finger pinching pen should be moderately tight. Palm void means that the palm should be empty when holding the pen. The ring finger and little finger should not be held in the palm.

3. Relax naturally.

The pen is naturally relaxed, and the four joints of the fingers, wrists, elbows, and shoulders will be able to operate flexibly, and the writing will be easy and free. For example, if you use chopsticks to eat, if you grasp the chopsticks very tightly, the food in the bowl will inevitably not be able to catch your mouth, and the same is true for holding a pen. If the pen is mainly held by the fingers, then the pen is mainly carried by the wrist.

Finally, there is the question of where to hold the pen. The general principle is: when writing small characters and regular script, the pen part can be downward: when writing large characters or lines, cursive, the pen part can be on the upper side, so that the pen stroke runs a large range, and the penmanship flow is flexible.

4. How to hold the pen.

The ancients attached great importance to the method of holding the pen, believing that "whoever learns calligraphy, first learns to hold the pen". The ancients used many methods to hold the pen, such as twisting the pipe, holding the pipe, pulling the stirrup, three-finger method, five-finger method, etc.
