Two basic questions about brush calligraphy

1 Finger force and wrist force coexist, should be used at the same time, you can feel that no matter the size of the word, if the lines that appear in the pen have to be spiritual, you can't only use finger force or wrist force, so their boundaries should not be very clear.

2 I just tried it, I tried it while I was standing and sitting, and I thought that when I was pillowing my wrist, my left arm was in a parallel position to my chest, and I was holding it on the table, so I was supposed to keep my body balanced, so the position of my left hand should be immovable.

So, as for the right hand holding the pen, it should move from top to bottom in the order of writing, and when you write the words above, the right arm is naturally resting on the palm of your left hand, and when you write the words below, your right wrist is resting on the palm of your left hand, and both things happen

I'll answer. 1, little brother, of course, the wrist moves. How small the range of finger movements.

2. Under the arm. It's hard to move under your wrist.

1.Of course, it is wrist movement, finger movement is a manifestation of the level is not good, and writing mainly depends on the strength of the wrist.

2.Pillow wrist means to raise the right arm and not put it on the table, and it has nothing to do with the left hand.

Except for the people of Yuyang Mountain, who are experts, the others don't know how to pretend to understand, and they suggest him.

None of them were right......I've been practicing calligraphy for 5 years. Writing brush words is to refer to strength, larger words are also moving wrist and arm, but wrist arm is just translation, glyph or finger strength, to ensure that the pen has been held vertically, if the wrist strength, the pen can not be guaranteed to be upright. (However, the pen word is wrist strength, and the chalk word is arm strength).

It is usually pillow between the wrist and the elbow, and there are also pillows under the elbow. This doesn't make much sense, it's just for comfort and cultivation, and there's no need to deliberately learn it.

1.Do you use finger force or wrist force when moving the pen (that is, whether it is wrist movement or finger movement)?

Finger power is used for small characters, and wrist force is used for large characters.

2.The pillow wrist is to put the palm of the left hand under the right hand So what exactly is the pillow (is it placed under the right wrist or the arm)?

Place it under your right wrist.

Brushes are divided into wolf hair, wool and both.

Wool is generally yellow or dark yellow, wool is white and hair is yellow on the outside and white on the inside.

For beginners, wolf fur is generally used. Because wolf hair is a little harder, while wool is softer, wool and hair are suitable for students with skills.

Commonly used good inks have Yidege, Cao Sugong and Zhonghua. But just use the normal ones for practice.

Xuan paper is divided into raw Xuan and cooked Xuan, raw Xuan is easier to dissolve water, and cooked Xuan is thinner, suitable for beginners. For economic reasons, it is better to use rough-edged paper and old newspapers.

To learn calligraphy, the first thing is to learn regular script. Beginners generally learn three regular script fonts, namely Yan Ti, Ou Ti and Liu Ti, which are from the three major calligraphers of the Tang Dynasty, Yan Zhenqing, Ouyang Xun and Liu Gongquan.

Yan body and willow body are known as Yan muscles and willow bones, there are many kinds of changes of Yan body, the glyph is larger, pay attention to the change of strokes, follow the horizontal and vertical thickness, left and right thickness, and the European body and willow body of the glyph are relatively thin, but give people a sense of angular and angular. Beginners should choose the font they imitate according to the characteristics of their hard pen font.

The most important thing in writing calligraphy is the structure, before writing to think about its structure, if the structure is good, even if the strokes are not too careful, you can also write a better effect.

My family has been writing for more than ten years, and I have studied it.

Suggestion: Brush (not soft or hard).

Newspapers are OK, but they are generally made of rough-edged paper, if you are a beginner.

Paper, I personally recommend using raw edge paper, pen with a fine wolf hook, if you want to get started writing Yan Zhenqing, I recommend using a larger brush! Depending on the font, I recommend preparing a few pens with different performance sizes in case you need them!

(1) There are four requirements for pen selection: "round and sharp", round, which means that the pen body is round and not concave; Jian, refers to the elasticity of the pen after turning the pen away with the hand; pointed, the nib of the pen should be pointed; Qi, pinch the flat pen to see if the pen is neat, if it is uneven can not choose (2) beginner calligraphy to start from the regular script, that write the regular script pen can not be too long, the long edge pen is used to write the line of grass. The grid of the rough-edged paper is 10 cm, so it is very suitable to choose a 5 cm long pen. It is best to use a pen for beginners to write regular script, and the pen is a mixture of soft and hard, soft and hard always easy to melt, easy to recover and easy to grasp.

Generally, there are more mixtures of wolf hair wool and rabbit hair wool. (3) To choose a good pen, after the four requirements are met, it is best to feel it yourself, repeatedly experiment, don't be afraid of trouble, this is the best. Hope it helps.

A good pen should achieve "the pen barrel should be straight, the thickness should be moderate, the edge should be sharp, and the hand should be pressed to the tip."

It should be sharp, slightly bulging in the middle of the pen, olive-shaped, and have a certain elasticity". For beginners, it is advisable to take the long edge sheep's hair.

It is advisable to use a small Kai wolf pen;
