How to write a good running script?

Running script is a calligraphy art form with traditional aesthetic charm, which expresses the beauty of words with smooth lines and changing strokes. Here are some tips to make calligraphy look better:

1. Choose a suitable font: there are three fonts: regular script, running script and cursive script. Choosing the right font can be decided according to personal preference and theme. Regular script font is clear and dignified, suitable for writing formal occasions; The running script font is smooth and stretched, suitable for writing long articles; The cursive script is concise and suitable for writing titles or slogans.

2. Pay attention to the structure of the font: the calligraphy of each word pays attention to the structure and proportion of the font, and pays attention to the thickness, length and curve change of each stroke. Whether the glyph structure stretches symmetrically or not directly affects the overall aesthetic feeling.

3. Control the rhythm and speed: When writing calligraphy, control the rhythm and speed of writing. Too fast can easily lead to confusion and instability of strokes, and too slow can easily lead to hesitation and delay. Maintain a certain sense of rhythm and fluency, so that the handwriting looks natural and powerful.

4. Pay attention to the thickness change of strokes: in the calligraphy of Chinese characters, the thickness change of strokes can create rich artistic effects. According to the structure and artistic conception of each word, master the thickness change of strokes and highlight the weight and layering of glyphs.

5. Appropriate use of decoration and embellishment: When writing calligraphy, you can appropriately add some decoration and embellishment, such as flies, jade hooks, dots, folds and so on. These decorations and embellishments should be coordinated with the font and layout, not too much or too complicated, so as not to affect the overall aesthetic feeling.

6. Deeply understand the artistic conception of the characters: the writing of calligraphy is not only the expression of glyphs, but more importantly, it is necessary to deeply understand the artistic conception and connotation of the characters and show their beauty and temperament through writing. Only by truly understanding and understanding the meaning of words can we express it better in writing.

7. Keep practicing and improving: If you want to write a better script, you need to keep practicing and improving. You can read more calligraphers' works and learn their writing skills and styles. At the same time, we should practice hard and constantly improve our writing level.

In short, we should master the skills of font structure, stroke thickness, rhythm and so on, and at the same time deeply understand the artistic conception and connotation of words. Through continuous practice and improvement, the calligraphy written by the recipient can be better.
