Not a child's play
The original meaning of "child" refers to children, but also refers to young men, and also makes noun suffixes, such as: small carts, flower pots. The content created today, "Non-Trivial Play", is a metaphor for how important things are, not a joke.
In the creation, the glyph of the first word is slightly larger, the ink color is heavier, and the size and position of the four words are reasonably arranged.
When writing the word "Er", because there are more strokes in the upper half, it is necessary to arrange it compactly, put away the upper part, and stretch the lower part.
There are also more strokes of the word "drama", so when writing, pay attention to the sparse strokes to be interspersed appropriately. When using ink, it is also necessary to be dry and moist, and it cannot be all very thick ink. When the money is placed, record the time of creation, and then stamp your own name.
"Non-Tong Children's Play" is from the ninety-fourth time of Qing Cao Xueqin's "Dream of the Red Chamber": "Play is play, laugh is laugh, this matter is not the same child's play, you don't mix it!" ”
Well, "Non-Child's Play" is here, I hope you like it!

Know one's business
The "dry" oracle bones resemble wooden sticks with branches, tied with stones at both ends of the branches, used as primitive hunting tools. The word "dry" originally means a weapon, and later refers to doing things in a down-to-earth manner, such as: working hard and burying one's head in hard work. It is also a metaphor for being competent; competent and competent.
The content created today, "Shrewd and Strong", describes people as resourceful and intelligent, and have strong work ability.
When creating banners, we should pay attention to the first word slightly larger, pay attention to when creating with lines of books, use the pen must be smooth, and in the change of ink color, there must be dry and wet. And when the model is dropped, a very dense font can be used to form a dense relationship with the body. The seal should be kept at a certain distance from the last word.
To create with a book, we must pay attention to the overall grasp, one is the change of ink color, so that its contrast is stronger, and the other is to try to be richer in brushwork.
Well, this book work "Shrewd and Strong" is here, I hope it will be helpful to everyone!
