Many book lovers say: It is difficult to write a line book, and the pen is not natural enough. Today we will discuss how calligraphy masters write calligraphy. In general, the pen used in the book has flexibility, flexibility, and diversity, and it is much more natural to understand these characteristics.
01/
Use it properly
The pen used for writing is generally only one-third of the full front of the millimeter, and the heaviest pen should not exceed one-half. In this way, when writing, it can be pressed down and lifted. Of course, this is not absolute, and those who like to use short and long pens to write books are often not subject to this restriction, or use full fronts, or use sharp tips, as long as they are properly mastered, as required by Liang Wei's "Commentaries": "It is advisable to use the pen to be real, and it is necessary to jump up, and not to make the pen die on the paper." "If you write big words in small letters, you will be stretched to the limit, like a withered mallet." The fatness and thinness of the word are often closely related to the size and depth of the pen, and if the pen is too much, the stroke will be rigid, flat, floating and thin.
02/
The pen is written at a good pace
The speed of writing and writing cannot be generalized, it should be said that it is late or fast, and it must also be according to the needs of the whole text, although it is a word, it can be as fast as the wind, and it can be late with the boat. Therefore, the delay of the writing can not only be said to be at a medium speed, let alone accelerate the urgent book, but should be calm and calm, take advantage of the heart, and a lyric is better. In the Qing Dynasty's "Calligraphy Secrets", it is proposed: "If you can use a pen, you are a famous artist, and the pen must be interesting." ”
03/
Pen and pen delivered
The so-called pen is sent to the pen, that is, in the process of running a stroke, the pen tip should be in place, and the pen belly cannot reach the end of the stroke, and the nib is picked out or folded out halfway through. This is the key to the lifting of the pen, and the kung fu sent by this pen comes from the foundation of the calligraphy, otherwise it is not sent in place, and the quality of the stroke is poor.
04/
Want to be horizontal first vertical, want vertical first horizontal
The starting brush of the horizontal and vertical paintings, whether hidden or exposed, is consistent with the principle of kaize. In the horizontal painting, the exposed pen that does not bear the upper painting should be paid special attention to not making the tip pen too much, in order to prevent the thin and thin carving of the stroke, so that the starting pen is plump and thick. The vertical stroke should first be cut to the right, and then pressed straight in to prevent too much vitriol.
05/
The wire is not thick
Jiang Kui proposed in the "Continuation Book Notation": "It is the pointillist painting that is heavy, the non-point painting, the occasional phase leads, and the brush is light." "If the painting and painting, the words and words are thick, there will be a suspicion of being noisy and entangled."
06/
Turn the edge like a tendon
The turning edge is to rotate the pen with the wrist, so that the sharp ring rotates and writes lines without edges and angles, that is, "turning into a circle". For example, the main pen or hook pen that writes words such as "also", "for", "get", "and", etc., the turning edge should achieve the same effect as a tendon ring, with a three-dimensional sense.
07/
Vertical pen spread
That is, it is necessary to boldly ink and drop the paper, and enjoy the longitudinal and horizontal, so that you can receive the artistic effect of exuberance and flexible pen posture. In ancient times, Zhu Yunming, Xu Wei, Chen Daofu, Wang Duo, Fu Shan, Zhang Ruitu and others made good use of this method.
08/
The striker changes
The end of the previous word is followed by the stroke of the first stroke of the next word, and it is necessary to pay attention to the change of the front, in one article, try not to appear similarly. In a bookish work, it can play a role in changing posture, producing rhythm and increasing change.
09/
Pick up the pen quickly
In the knot body of the word cloth white, between the various strokes some left and right, some up and down, some crossed, all have a certain "seam" position and writing, because the joint should not be applied heavy ink, more use of light and sharp pen connection, so also known as "sharp connection", with the pen needs to be light and dexterous.
10/
The pen is smooth
When writing some characters, the pen method of small coiling and large loop is used, such as "emperor" and "belt" are written as large and small loops, and the outer enveloping structure of "country" is written as a large loop, which is called a pen or pen. Writing this stroke requires a mastery of the forward transformation of the sharp, in order to obtain the effect of strong lines and smooth flow, this method is mostly used in cursive writing.
11/
Turn the pen vividly
It is a kind of action that changes the direction of progress according to the needs of the body shape in the process of moving the pen, and uses the flip pen edge to continue to speed. It is mostly used for the turn of the square pen, and is applied with the folding pen to draw the edges and corners of the pen to avoid the appearance of stiff pen disease. The pen turning method is more difficult to master, and more practice and experience should be added.
12/
Go with the flow
Even with a pen, you can't pretend to be trembling. The brilliance of calligraphy lies in the embodiment of nature in human beings, which is a very high realm. Nature is the nature of man to do his best to conform to the conditions of nature, so the meaning and value of the use of techniques lies in the nature embodied in the creation of calligraphy. The use of a pen is old and spicy, which is a sign that "when the meeting is over, everyone is old", and it is not deliberately made up.
