It is widely believed that the best way to learn calligraphy is to practice it consistently. This method of learning emphasizes learning from tradition and learning from the ancients. In ancient calligraphy, almost all calligraphy can be found. In contrast, practicing handwriting in general is not as good as meticulous posting. It is the most effective way to learn calligraphy at the source, and it has also been proven to be a practical method.
Why do you want to post it? Pro posts are a form of training. First of all, it exercises the eye's ability to see. By carefully observing the characters in the notebook, you can accurately identify the characteristics and quality of the characters, which is the basis for writing good characters. Secondly, the post can exercise the control of the hand. By accurately imitating the characters in the calligraphy, you can improve your ability to express and control your hands, and you will be able to express the image you imagined. If you persist for a long time, you will be able to form an expressive ability, which in turn will improve your ability to create calligraphy.
For adults or seniors, it is also a good way to break bad habits and improve the quality of calligraphy. Through the temporary post, some of the stubborn problems that have been formed can be corrected, so that the calligraphy is more standardized and standardized. At the same time, the temporary post can also make calligraphy more individual and characteristic, and improve the artistic value of calligraphy.
Learning calligraphy should aim at the "center of the circle" like practicing shooting, and this metaphor vividly expresses the importance of the post. Only through continuous practice and hard work can we accurately master the skills and essence of calligraphy, so that we can be comfortable and handy in calligraphy creation.
There are a lot of calligraphy now, and if you don't choose it, you won't be able to finish it for a lifetime. In the case of a copybook, not every word should be learned. What to do? It is an effective method to select a small number or even a few words that are representative of them, repeatedly study, study, and thoroughly understand the doorway, learn its essence, and touch the analogy.
I once let a student who had just entered the school and did not have a very good foundation experiment: in a period of time, she wrote the word "yes" in (Lan Tingxu), and asked her to ponder while writing, and finally wrote the image, and tasted the sweetness of using a pen, knotting and posting. I encouraged her to persevere.
In fact, if you can write this one "yes" character, you will be able to write other words well, and the more you write, the more your skills will naturally improve. If your starting point is high, the quality of the words you learn will also be high. I think that taking a post as a foothold, and then alongside others, eclectic, and integrated, can get twice the result with half the effort.
This is much better than writing this today and that tomorrow, or even picking up a pen and writing casually and blindly. The ancients also affirmed this method. Writing is not only about effort, but also about a little ingenuity. To achieve the effect of refinement, we must have "understanding", use our brains, ponder more, be good at figuring out from the aspects of brush, knot, chapter, ink and artistic conception, comprehend with our hearts, find out the rules, accumulate over time, and constantly summarize and improve.
God loves to take care of honest people".
Learning calligraphy is a slow job, it takes a considerable amount of time to accumulate, there is no shortcut, it is difficult to achieve it quickly, it is too urgent to do it, and it is not possible to work hard.
Only by learning step by step, practicing honestly, persevering, laying a solid foundation, and gradual progress, will you learn to achieve something.
Calligraphy should not be mystified or simplified.
I believe in the saying: God always loves to take care of honest people. The method is right, the kung fu is used, and with good understanding, it is natural to be able to write well.
Of course, this is only in terms of "writing", as the art of calligraphy, as a quintessence of the country and a broad and profound knowledge, also involves literature, history, writing, Chinese, aesthetics and many other extra-literal skills, then it is a long story.
