How to practice calligraphy quickly in senior three (don't copy a lot)

1. Which font should I start practicing?

The traditional way to learn calligraphy is to start from Tang Kai, and practice Nanbei Han Liqin seal script on the basis of writing regular script in reverse time. Another way of thinking is that starting from the immature characteristics of young people's hand muscles, we can start from Qin Zhuan, which has not changed much, from cursive script to regular script. These two concepts have their own reasons. However, I think the hard pen calligraphy we learn is essentially different from the brush calligraphy mentioned above. We can't follow its practice method, and we can't be confused by the traditional concept of learning brush first and then learning hard pen. Hard pen is widely used now. If you can't write China's calligraphy well, you can still write well. There is no need to take a detour.

What font should I practice in hard pen writing? In my opinion, starting from the characteristics of young people's hand muscle development and the characteristics of uniform strokes and less changes in hard pen calligraphy, we should start with fonts that never require fast strokes and heavy changes. It is best to print in bold. The beauty of this font mainly lies in its structure. We can master the structure of fonts by trying to figure out and analyzing bold. On this basis, you can choose your favorite font according to your personality and hobbies and practice hard.

2. What should I practice when practicing calligraphy?

First of all, practice your eyesight, that is, read the posts carefully. Huang Tingjian, a calligrapher in the Song Dynasty, said: "The ancients learned to write, not all of them copied. They often hang ancient calligraphy works on the wall, watch them intently, and decide to start writing. " Ou Yangxun in the Tang Dynasty found the inscription written by Suo Jing in the Jin Dynasty, and was reluctant to leave, so he sat down and read it for three days. The more posts you read, the higher your horizon, and you will know how to write. There is an idiom called "eyes are superior but eyes are inferior". I think: eye height is the premise of hand height. If you can't find beauty, you don't know what beauty is, let alone create it. Many students think that scribbling is the so-called running script, and the reason why ugliness is beautiful is because "the eyes are superior and the eyes are inferior."

Secondly, we should practice our brains or our hearts. On the basis of careful observation, we should keep well-written model figures firmly in mind and engrave their glyphs deeply in our minds. Whenever the word is mentioned, we can immediately guess the shape of the word on the copybook. Do it with confidence and words in your heart.

Third, we should practice our hands. Practice your eyes and brain to find out how to write words. You can think of the best effect of words in your mind, but it may not be written in your hand, because your brain may not be able to command your hand, and your hand may not be able to command your pen. Hand training is to achieve the consistency of heart and hand and handwriting, so hand training is also very important. Hand training mainly refers to strength, wrist strength and hand feeling. If you write for a long time, you will feel sore fingers, sore wrists, hands that don't work, and exercise more. This phenomenon will disappear. Students who often help teachers copy questions on the blackboard and students who run blackboard newspapers often write quickly and well. This is how their finger strength and wrist strength are trained. Also pay attention to practice the sense of touch, let the brain command the hand, and feel that the pen has become a part of the hand and an extension of the hand. Hands can easily command the pen, think fast, think slow, think light, think heavy, and write whatever effect you want.

Fourth, we should practice structure, because the key to practicing Chinese characters is to master the structure of Chinese characters. The structure of a word refers to the proportion of stroke length and the relationship between strokes. Xie Xiaodong sang in the song "China People": "The favorite character is the square character taught by Mr. Wang, and the square character should be like him …" The square character summarizes the structural characteristics of Chinese characters. I have mastered the structure of Chinese characters, and I have written square and beautiful bold characters. With a little change of strokes, I can write Chinese characters in various fonts, such as Song Ti, Wei Ti, Kai Ti, Imitation Song Ti, Pang Ti, Sima Ti and Li Shu. If you can't master the structure of Chinese characters, no matter how the strokes of Chinese characters are decorated and beautified, they are ugly. Therefore, mastering the structure of characters and writing bold characters is the key and foundation for practicing all fonts.

Fifth, we should practice strokes. Many students have practiced calligraphy. Since they began to practice regular script, they have forgotten many writing rules and only remember pens. As a result, the words written are very cumbersome, like ghost symbols. I advocate practicing in bold, mastering fonts and canceling pens. Let me introduce some common strokes to you, and the common problems that most students have when writing these strokes:

1 o'clock, the pen is transported from the upper left to the lower right, and there is a pen transport process. Note that "points" are also long and cannot be rounded into points.

(2) Put the pen horizontally and divide it equally from left to right. The key is to be "horizontal and vertical", not high at one end and low at the other, nor wavy. The length should be controlled according to the font of the square characters, not too short or too long.

(3) vertical pen, vertical pen from top to bottom. The key is "vertical to be straight", and it can't be skewed left and right, let alone written as a vertical hook. The length should be controlled according to the font of the square characters, not too short or too long.
