How to practice the pen and how to practice the pen and calligraphy

1. First of all, you must train your eyes.

Huang Tingjian, a calligrapher in the Song Dynasty, said: "Ancient people did not rely on copying to learn to write, they often hung the calligraphy works of the ancients on the wall, and concentrated on it. "The more posts you read, the higher your eyesight will be, and you will know how to write.

There is an idiom called "the eye is high and the hand is low", and I think: the eye height is the premise of the hand height. If you can't discover beauty, you don't know what beauty is, let alone create beauty.

Many students think that scribbling is the so-called calligraphy, and the reason why they regard ugliness as beauty is that they "have low eyes and low hands".

2. Secondly, we must train our hearts.

On the basis of careful observation, it is necessary to keep in mind the well-written model character, and engrave its glyph deeply in the brain, so that whenever the character is mentioned, you can immediately come up with the shape of the character on the copy. Do it in your mind and in your brain.

3. Third, we must practice our hands.

The purpose of eye and brain training is to figure out how to write words. The best effect of being able to think of words in the heart may not be able to write this best effect in the hands, because the brain may not be able to command the hand, and the hand may not be able to command the pen. Practicing hands is to achieve the same state of heart and hand, and consistent handwriting, so it is also very important to practice hands.

Practicing hands is mainly to practice finger strength, wrist strength, and hand feeling. If you write for a long time, you will feel pain in your fingers, soreness in your wrists, and your hands will not obey your calls. Students who often help teachers copy questions on the blackboard and students who run blackboard newspapers often write quickly and well, and their finger and wrist skills are practiced in this way.

It is also necessary to pay attention to the practice of hand feeling, so that the brain can command the hand, feel that the pen has become a part of the hand, become an extension of the hand, the hand can easily command the pen, want to be fast, want to be slow, want to be light, want to be heavy, want to write what kind of effect can write what kind of effect.

4. Fourth, we must practice structure.

Because the key to practicing characters is to master the structure of words. The structure of the character refers to the length and proportion of the strokes of the character and the interspersed and avoidable relationship between the strokes. Xie Xiaodong sang in the song "Chinese":

My favorite word to write is the square word taught by Mr., and he should be like him ...... be a square person"Fangfangzheng" summarizes the structural characteristics of Chinese characters.

After mastering the structure of Chinese characters, he wrote square and beautiful black characters, and with a slight change in his strokes, he could write Chinese characters in various fonts such as Song style, Wei style, Kai style, imitation Song style, Pang style, Sima style, and Lishu. If you can't grasp the structure of Chinese characters, no matter how you modify and beautify the strokes of the characters, they will be ugly and redundant, and the more they change, the more ugly they become.

5. Fifth, practice strokes.

Many students have practiced calligraphy, and they have forgotten many of the rules of moving the pen since they practiced in regular script, and only remembered the pen. As a result, the words written are cumbersome and cumbersome, like ghost drawings. It is necessary to start from the bold characters, grasp the glyphs, and cancel the pause pen.

If you want to practice pen writing well, it is not an overnight thing, you have to keep exercising, and you must have a good regular script to practice calligraphy.

As far as the practice of pen writing is concerned, it is important to pay attention to:

First of all, the way of practicing the body of the word, what kind of radicals should be in the opposite direction or opposite to each other, and how to grasp the center of gravity? If these are solved, the word as a whole will be beautiful.

Second, practice strokes. A stroke, from what position the pen starts, where to end the pen; Teton pressed how to write, these are in the traditional calligraphy, learned, then the part of the character is also beautiful.

Again, practice layout and discipline. To write a work, it is not enough to write a single word well, but also to lay out the words reasonably and seek the overall beauty.

Finally, practice personality and temperament. This is a high-level requirement. It's about writing your own personality. Personality can be based on a unique way of moving the pen, a unique structure, and a unique chapter. But no matter how unique it is, there is one principle to pay attention to, and that is to conform to people's aesthetics.

The way to practice the pen and calligraphy: choose a pen, choose a calligraphy, read a calligraphy, insist on practicing, and participate in communication.

1. Choose a fountain pen

If you want to write well, the first thing is to have a smooth writing pen, at present there are many kinds of good pens in the stationery store, when choosing, you can use your fingers to rub at the tip of the pen, and the smooth ones are basically suitable for the practice of pen words.

2. Select a copybook

With the development of the times, there are many people who have produced calligraphy calligraphy, which can be bought at local bookstores, and they can practice by choosing it. In the later stage of practicing calligraphy, with the continuous improvement of your aesthetic level, there will be good calligraphy to enter your vision again, and then practice, the characters will be better and better.

3. Read the calligraphy

Chinese pen calligraphy has a deep relationship with Chinese brush calligraphy, and it can be said that Chinese pen calligraphy is developed from brush calligraphy. Reading more calligraphy can master some writing rules and improve their aesthetic taste, so as to get twice the result with half the effort in the practice of pen calligraphy. Looking for a good script such as "Orchid Pavilion Preface" and repeatedly figuring it out will be quite rewarding.

4. Keep practicing

No matter what kind of calligraphy font practice, it is necessary to continue to practice for a long time in order to master the rules of writing, practice is a kind of long-lasting kung fu, do not expose to the cold, we must insist on continuous practice for a long time, from which to find out the progress and gaps, so as to effectively check and improve.

5. Participate in exchanges

Interacting with others, participating in corresponding calligraphy competitions, etc., these will greatly broaden your horizons, so as to play the effect of "stones from other mountains, you can attack jade", because in these exchanges, you can get in touch with some excellent works of the current popular calligraphy genres, and constantly interact with these calligraphy people, will effectively affect your calligraphy level.

Fountain pen book practice method skills:

1. Increase the joint, will use the wire. There are only dot paintings between the strokes of regular script, and there are no filaments connected to each other. Xingshu adds a hook at the end of the stroke, and connects it with the next stroke at close range, which is a connection.

If the next stroke is far away, it is connected with a lightweight filament, which is a drawstring.

<>2. Merge strokes and complete it in one stroke. Undoubtedly, the regular script should be carved meticulously, pay attention to the beginning and end of the strokes, and in order to increase the speed of writing, the book often merges several strokes into a complete pin. After the strokes are merged, the writing is smoother and faster, which is more conducive to the practical application of calligraphy.

3. Huishi Doumu uses a flip pen and is good at hooking. Each stroke of regular script is relatively complete, with a beginning and an end. There is a kind of flipping brush in Xingshu, which is turned backwards at the end of the stroke to take momentum for the next stroke.

Hooking out is brought out clockwise at the end of the stroke. When ticking out, pause for a moment before lifting the pen to tick out. The hook here is different from the hook in the regular script search, which is not a part of the original strokes, but a link formed to facilitate the fluency of writing.

<>4. Change the stroke order and increase the speed. There are strict rules for stroke order in regular script. In order to improve the speed of writing, cursive stroke order is often used. The change of stroke order makes the pen movement smoother and more concise. Please note that changing the stroke order should be based on rules and regulations, and do not act arbitrarily.

5. Flexible writing style and learning from others' strengths. The movement of the writing is very rich, so that the writing of a word is varied, some are partial to the block and some are cursory; Some are neat and some are smart. Beginners should first master one of these writing styles, and then conduct in-depth research according to their own preferences to learn from others.

<>6. Center of gravity, main pen, echo, let's go, uniformity, symmetry, change. The eight principles of fountain pen writing mentioned above are also the core rules of calligraphy practice, and must be consciously applied. A stable center of gravity remains the number one priority.
