Pen calligraphy not only requires correct and clear writing, standardized, so that people can see at a glance, but also emphasizes that the shape is beautiful and vivid, artistic, and pleasing to the eye, so it is an art of great practical value. Because it has both the flavor of the brush character and the characteristics of the pen character, it is called pen calligraphy.
To appreciate pen calligraphy is to appreciate its aesthetically pleasing artistry. This artistry is nothing more than four aspects: the beauty of the line, the beauty of the knot, the beauty of the chapter and the beauty of the style.
The beauty of the lines of pen calligraphy is summarized in the characteristics of the pen, the form of the pointillist painting, and the rhythm of the pen. Try to take the character "Yong" in the script, the lines are fluent, straight, and affirmative, and have the characteristics of a pen: points are like falling stones, skimming is like orchid leaves, hooks are like iron nails, dot paintings are clear, each has its own form; the pen is light and heavy, light and heavy, the speed is fast and slow, fast and slow, full of rhythm. Only in this way can the eight strokes of the "Yong" character have strength, dynamics, charm, and beautiful lines.
The knotted beauty of pen calligraphy is mainly expressed in the shape of various fonts. Whether it is positive, grass, subordinate, seal, or line, it must be shaped according to the law of diverse and unified beauty such as proportion, symmetry, balance, stability, contrast, and care. For example, in terms of the word "book" in the book, eight of them are horizontal paintings, except for one horizontal painting, after the omission, the remaining seven horizontal paintings are of different lengths, pitched, and completed in one go, and the ability to change is exhausted. The whole "book" word is steady and colorful, moving in silence, giving people a sculptural beauty.
The beauty of pen calligraphy is expressed in the composition of the whole work. There are two forms of pen calligraphy, one is traditional straight writing, one is modern horizontal writing, but both require "lines to have movable characters, character types must be vivid", and the composition is complete, natural, consistent, harmonious, and interesting. It gives people the feeling that the neat and beautiful form is like a pattern painting, the decoration is strong, the flow is ethereal like light music, and the fun is strong.
The stylistic beauty of pen calligraphy is expressed in the author's unique and strong personality color. "Words are like people", due to the different skills, cultivation, personality, etc. of each person, so a variety of different styles have been formed. Some are like mountains and seas, very heroic; some are like small bridges flowing water, very elegant; some are like flying in the sky, light and ethereal; some are like pines, simple and solid; some are fresh like lotus flowers; some are beautiful like the moon magnolia. Different styles, giving people different aesthetic feelings.

Just like in a cinematic lens, from close-up to close-up, then in the middle, then in the distance or panorama.
