How to master the pen edge of the brush word, what does the brush edge mean

When lifting the pen, you should pay attention to whether the posture is correct, and the pen is deeper.

There is a transparent or bluish part near the tip of the brush. The role of the brush tip in the brush head is very important. For example, in the process of writing, the center, the side, and the open edge are folded, such as the pen is not reversed, and the front is not scattered, etc., all of which can be completed through the pen.

But the quality of various animal hair grades are very different, such as goat hair, weasel hair are according to its origin, breed, male and female, hunting season, as well as parts, age, etc.

But the key to quality lies in whether the tip of the hair has a sharp edge, and only with a sharp edge can a high-quality pen be made, and a pen made without a sharp edge is an inferior pen without a sharp edge.

If the sharp edge of the Fengying area is as long as centimeters to 2 centimeters, this is what the calligraphers call the rhyme long edge pen, like this long edge pen has a long body and a short body. The so-called long sharp pen of ancient calligraphers is the length of the sharp edge rather than the length of the hair of the pen.

Basic skills required for practicing calligraphy.

The first is to hold the pen. Su Dongpo said: "There is no definite way to put the pen, and it is necessary to make it empty and wide."

Here is an introduction to the commonly used "five-finger pen holding method": that is, to pinch the pen barrel (appropriate height) with the fingertips of the thumb and index finger to ensure that the pen barrel does not fall off; The middle finger is placed on the outside of the pen under the index finger, which not only strengthens the strength of the index finger to pinch the pen, but also plays the role of hooking the pen inward;

The nail flesh of the ring finger is against the inside of the pen barrel, which plays the role of pushing the pen outward; The little finger is attached to the lower part of the belly of the ring finger to assist the ring finger to push the pen outward. When holding the pen, it is necessary to use the pen as the ancients said: "Make the palm empty as holding an egg", so that it is easy to move the pen.

To learn the book, you should often practice holding the pen, hooking it back, pushing out and rotating the pen barrel (plus the action of the wrist), and practice drawing straight lines and arcs. The height of the pen and whether it hangs the wrist and elbow is determined by the size of the word. The big characters are high, and the wrist is suspended; If it is larger, it needs to hang the elbow.
