Calligraphy cannot be practiced overnight. It requires long-term persistence and a lot of thought and energy. The following is the "calligraphy experience" compiled by me for everyone. It is for reference only. You are welcome to read it. Experience of calligraphy (1)

I have been learning calligraphy for some time. Now I will summarize my experience of learning calligraphy as follows:

First of all, as a teacher, I can write well and write well. Good penmanship is a requirement of the profession! Therefore, under such circumstances, I started learning calligraphy. For teachers, especially Chinese teachers, writing is a very important basic skill. When writing, we usually write with chalk in class and pen calligraphy on paper. Occasionally we also write calligraphy with calligraphy. Our teachers often call this the three-stroke character.

Since learning calligraphy, I think calligraphy has the following benefits:

1. The most basic thing is that it can make your handwriting beautiful;

2. You can cultivate your own sentiments. Calligraphy requires patience and long-term persistence. Therefore, while practicing calligraphy, you can cultivate your mind and character, which is very helpful for improving your own quality. Some people say "Words are like people", I think this may be what they mean.

I think the most important benefits of learning calligraphy are the above two points.

So how have I learned calligraphy?

First of all, in my daily work and study, I pay attention to developing good habits. When I need to write, I take it seriously and never be sloppy. I practice from stroke to stroke, so gradually I The words will get better.

Then, after work, I took a certain amount of time to study calligraphy from famous artists. For example, I always set aside a certain amount of time every week to practice calligraphy. While practicing, I cultivate my own sentiment and make my life after work more fulfilling. There are many famous calligraphers, such as Yan Zhenqing's, Liu Gongquan's, Zhao Zhiqian's, etc. I like them all very much. No matter which calligrapher it is, no matter what kind of font it is, I will practice it. Take advantage of others and make up for your own shortcomings. From regular script to official script, to running script, cursive script, etc., I am still learning. I think cursive writing can best reflect a person's personality, so cursive writing is the most difficult to practice. Perhaps only master calligraphers can write it into cursive writing.

After a period of study and practice, I think you should pay attention to the following points when learning calligraphy:

First, you must be diligent in learning calligraphy. The most important thing is to persist in practice. There is no shortcut to calligraphy. Walking, the words are written one stroke at a time. Only if you keep practicing, you can achieve results after a certain period of time. Don't think about immediate results and reaching the sky in one step.

Secondly, when learning calligraphy, you must be diligent in thinking, and it is best to find a teacher. Calligraphy is an art, and to enter the door of art, it is best to have a guide. If you can find a famous master as your teacher, the effect of learning calligraphy will be twice the result with half the effort. If you can't find a teacher, you can often look at copybooks and the works of famous artists of the past. When looking at the works, think about the structure, shape, strokes, force, layout, etc. of the character, and think about how to make a character artistic. , that is, both beautiful and charming. To achieve this, it requires accumulated observation and experience over time. I think this is also the state I want to reach.

Third, calligraphy should have its own characteristics. Of course, this refers to a relatively high level of calligraphy. When calligraphy reaches a relatively high level, we should consider adding our own characteristics, adding our own understanding and understanding of calligraphy, and embodying our own ideas in calligraphy, so as to truly make the characters not only tangible but also beautiful in form. , and it must be spirited and complete in form and spirit. This is good calligraphy.

There is a saying that is right. If you want to practice calligraphy well, you need to work beyond the words. When calligraphy practice feels boring or there is no progress, you can do some other activities that are beneficial to physical and mental health, such as gymnastics, martial arts, dance, fishing and other activities, which will help you practice and improve your calligraphy skills.

In short, calligraphy, as an art, cannot be mastered overnight and requires a lot of energy and effort. One thing that needs to be mentioned is that we should usually cultivate our interest in learning calligraphy. Interest is the best teacher. Only when we have a greater interest in calligraphy can we practice good calligraphy. Experience in calligraphy (2)

Calligraphy is a bright pearl in our Chinese national culture, shining with brilliant light. Today I listened to the calligrapher teacher xx’s report, which gave me a new understanding of calligraphy. Calligraphy is based on Chinese characters and written with a brush. We can explore and understand it from its nature, aesthetic characteristics, and unique expression techniques. It embodies the basic law of "unity of opposites" in all things and reflects the human subject. Spirit, temperament and cultivation.

Professor xx said: "Calligraphy is rooted in the deep soil of traditional Chinese culture." This time I also realized that it is not enough to just study techniques in order to write truly good calligraphy. , to understand and explore its corresponding cultural connotations. The evolution history of Chinese calligraphy: oracle bone inscriptions - seal script - official script (cursive script, regular script) - running script. Carefully study their development rules and change rules.

The structure of writing Chinese characters should pay attention to: horizontal and vertical, prominent main stroke, natural principle, change principle, virtual and real principle, tightness principle, that is, the eight rules of "Yong". After mastering the principles, I believe that learning calligraphy requires diligence and persistence in practice. There is no shortcut in calligraphy. Words are written stroke by stroke. Only by persisting in practice can you achieve results after a certain period of time. Don't think about instant results and success. To learn calligraphy, you need to be diligent in thinking, and it is best to find a teacher. Calligraphy is an art, and to enter the door of art, it is best to have a guide. If you can find a famous master as your teacher, the effect of learning calligraphy will be twice the result with half the effort. If you can't find a teacher, you can often look at copybooks and the works of famous artists of the past. When looking at the works, think about the structure, shape, strokes, force, layout, etc. of the character, and think about how to make a character artistic. , that is, both beautiful and charming. To achieve this, it requires accumulated observation and experience over time. I think this is also the state I want to reach.

In the future, I will pay attention to developing good habits in my daily work and study. When I need to write, I will take it seriously and never be sloppy. I will practice stroke by stroke to make my pen The writing is getting better and better. Calligraphy experience (3)

I started to like calligraphy when I entered normal school. I have always admired the calligraphy of Teacher xxx and Teacher xx. After joining the workforce, I was busy teaching and educating people due to my passion for work, but my love and hobbies have never stopped. It is inevitable to buy some posts that you like, read them, and practice them. After teaching at xx middle school, I also subscribed to Chinese calligraphy to study. However, due to my poor foundation, I could not understand many parts of the book. I only started writing based on my occasional interest. After work, I read some books on calligraphy and wrote some inscriptions on inscriptions. After working in a government department, my interest became more and more intense. I would write a post whenever I thought it was good. After working at the Discipline Inspection Commission, I was especially deeply inspired by Secretary x’s hobbies and concepts. I gained some in-depth views on reading more, thinking more, and practicing more. After teacher xx’s repeated advice, I became more interested in learning calligraphy and became more interested in calligraphy. The level of knowledge, understanding and appreciation of calligraphy has been greatly improved. Now let’s talk about some thoughts and experiences.

1. The important thing is coming.

There are many people who can write, but only by mastering the techniques and knowledge of calligraphy can one advance from general practical writing to the height of artistic creation of calligraphy, which is mainly for appreciation. The first problem we encounter when learning calligraphy is "what to learn and how to learn"? In practice, I realized that learning calligraphy first starts with writing calligraphy. We should not only follow the advice of the ancients and worship the ancients as our teachers, but also follow the advice of modern people. However, the Lord should come to ancient posts and famous posts. This is what people often say: "take the past vertically and take the present horizontally." The sages and contemporary masters have discussed this very clearly in this regard, and we just need to follow it based on our own actual situation. Master Qi Gong said in a letter to calligraphy enthusiasts: "If you take the method from the top, you will only get the middle. If you take the method, it will be the middle." No matter whose words it is, as long as it makes sense, you must listen to it. It is easiest for people to imitate it, but once you imitate it, you will never be able to get rid of it for the rest of your life, and you will regret it too late. "When writing a post, the main thing is to focus on the structure. If the structure is correct, even if all the dots and dashes are deleted, people will still say it resembles a certain family or a certain post." Mr. Qi Gong couldn't be more clear about the past and present.

2. The most important thing is diligence.

Learning calligraphy involves both “suffering” and “pleasure”. It is about seeking happiness amidst suffering. The Qing Dynasty's poem "There is a road in the mountain of books and diligence is the path, and there is no limit to the sea of ??learning and hard work is the boat", which vividly expresses the principle of diligent study and practice. The famous saying of Mr. Feng Guoyu, a calligrapher, "Why do you have to be ruthless in this life? Good things will eventually be exhausted in this life", which profoundly reveals the calligrapher's broad mind and tireless pursuit spirit. He said: When I practice calligraphy, I go through the "five steps of purgatory." The dragon leaps over the heavenly gate, the tiger lies in the phoenix palace, the divine swords are lined up in the forest, and the horses move freely, all with the priority of coming. Pay homage to famous teachers, do not admire empty fame, and focus on hammering. This is one. The heart is full of admiration and the hands are chasing after it, taking a different path and creating an original style. This is two. Be inclusive, gainful, and tolerant. Heaven and earth are our teachers, and everyone is our teacher. This is three. Knowledge, character, and cultivation all shine together. This is four. Comprehension is fifth. What is understanding? "Comprehension is the first in all Taoist circles, and I say that understanding is forgetfulness. The winds and rains are blowing, the monks' common clothes are falling, the snow is falling, and the bones and marrow are inherited. The ancient customs and appearances do not follow the vulgarity. I suddenly realized that I am born through hard work, and my mind is open to all rivers. The pen comes free." It can be seen that it is impossible to achieve success in the art of calligraphy without diligent practice, in-depth study and serious experience. However, it’s not enough to just “keep your head down” and practice hard. There is also the issue of learning methods and tips. The famous calligrapher Ouyang Zhongshi said: Calligraphy is not good by "practicing", but "learned". To learn is to take, and to take is to learn. If you think that you are a "writer", and the best writers of "characters" are ancient people like Wang Xizhi and Yan Zhenqing, if you don't learn from the sages honestly and don't insist on getting treasures from the traditional treasure house, "words" will be Poorly written. He also said: A horse will not be fat without night grass, and a man will not be rich without external wealth. As far as learning calligraphy is concerned, "foreign wealth" means learning from outsiders, learning from outsiders' advantages, absorbing or even "stealing" all the good things from outsiders. If you don't learn from outsiders, you can't enrich and cultivate yourself. In "making foreign money", the traditional treasure house has the richest foreign wealth. This treasure house is open to everyone. It depends on whether you go to get it, whether you take one thing or many things, and whether you take it once or often.

People can't get rich unless they take treasures from others! From this point of view, only by combining one's talent with the spirit of hard work and hard work, one can achieve talent without dabbling in it, devote one's whole heart to it, practice hard without food and sleep, and have the perseverance to "make a mountain out of one's pen" to become erudite. Only with a deep and thoughtful understanding can one be quick-thinking, handy, strong and soft in the art of calligraphy, and create good works that are magnificent, unrestrained and flying, and have their own characteristics and style.

3. Perseverance in love.

The love and interest in the art of calligraphy is the prerequisite and foundation for learning calligraphy well. For a good calligraphy inscription or a good calligraphy work, one can never tire of looking at it, practicing it a hundred times, and never put it down. Every time you watch it, you will gain something, and every time you practice, you will improve. This is what emotions are about, and this is the charm of art. Without this kind of hobby and emotion, it is impossible to learn the art of calligraphy well.

Emotional factors are very important in the art of calligraphy. Calligraphy is about skill and emotion. There are many old comrades who have good academic skills but poor temperament, and their writing is very rigid and stiff. Skill is technical, and emotion is spiritual. These are two different levels. This is what people often say to practice calligraphy with a peaceful mind and a calm mind. This requires not only having the skills to master the rules and regulations; but also having to be aware of one's emotions, be unrestrained, and act generously without violating the rules. The so-called heart and hands are smooth, and both work and emotion are complete. Make what you think in your heart, what you feel, what you feel, and what you move by pen vividly appear on the paper, completing the vivid process of expressing your talent, showing your temperament, publicizing your personality, and spreading your sense of beauty. Calligraphy experience (4)

From x to x, I was fortunate to be sent to participate in the first key calligraphy teacher of the x session of the x x city education system "Calligraphy Masters Entering the Campus" held by x x city xxxx middle school training courses. This training class aims to promote "calligraphy into the classroom". Teachers from primary and secondary schools across the city listened to lectures by famous teachers from the xx Calligraphers Association, the Hard Pen Calligraphers Association, and the xx City Calligraphers Association. They discussed the history of calligraphy. , and provided incisive explanations and guidance on professional knowledge in writing, teaching, etc.

The three-day training time is as short as a fleeting moment for calligraphy learners, but I felt deeply and benefited a lot. During the training, through the words and deeds of the calligraphy teacher, I gained a deeper understanding of calligraphy, broadened my horizons, increased my knowledge, and improved my understanding of the art of calligraphy. It made me realize the profoundness and long history of Chinese calligraphy art. Although this training was short, I felt deeply and benefited a lot. As a young art teacher, this training not only gave me a more systematic understanding and new understanding of the professional knowledge of calligraphy, but also made me realize the importance of educators in inheriting calligraphy.

During the training, the instructor’s patient explanation gave me a new understanding of the art of calligraphy. In the past, I have always believed that calligraphy is just writing. If you write well, you have learned calligraphy well. My hobby of calligraphy is usually just writing and drawing based on my interest, imitating cats and tigers. But now I realize that that was a narrow understanding, a single, one-sided understanding, and a very wrong understanding. Lu Xun once said: "Chinese writing has three beauties: the beauty of meaning touches the heart, the beauty of sound touches the ears, and the beauty of form touches the eyes." Calligraphy is an art, and the formal beauty of calligraphy art is formed through the regular combination of lines acting on paper. It's not simply about being able to write well or learning calligraphy well. It's an art that needs to be learned with "heart" and takes time to learn. If you want to make some achievements in calligraphy, you must first be able to observe. Observation will directly affect the accuracy of writing. Only by "entering" the copybook wholeheartedly can you make detailed observations. After observing, you need to be able to read stickers. To read stickers, you need to understand the brushwork, calligraphy, inkwork, and composition of the words. You need to read the characteristics of each stroke and the rhythm and rhythm of the strokes. Once you have read the post accurately, you can write the post. Of course, the post here is not to "follow the gourd and draw the dipper", but to restore the ancient people's pen as accurately as possible. When you write the post, you must put it into the post and bone it, so that the written words can be The "tendons", "bones" and "flesh" are all present, so it doesn't look like two skins like the ancient characters. Observe, read and imitate the posts. After imitating to a certain extent, you can add your own style to create.

Calligraphy cannot be practiced overnight. It requires long-term persistence and a lot of thought and energy. This is the common understanding reached by teachers who participated in this training. Therefore, as a teacher, especially a Chinese teacher, you must insist on practicing calligraphy and mastering this professional skill. It is not only a study of professional knowledge, but more importantly, it conveys a responsibility, which is to inherit the traditional calligraphy culture of the motherland. responsibility. Chinese culture is extensive, profound and has a long history. As a traditional art of the Chinese nation, calligraphy is the outstanding culture of China for five thousand years. It is closely related to Chinese culture and integrated with the spirit of the Chinese nation. It has profound cultural connotations and is a wonder among the world's arts. I think learning calligraphy has many benefits. It can cultivate our artistic accomplishment, cultivate noble sentiments, and improve cultural quality; it can gradually develop good habits of meticulousness, patience, and self-consciousness; it is also beneficial to the exercise of will; it can learn characters , literature, history and other kinds of knowledge; can be subtly influenced by the national spirit and traditional virtues. Therefore, as Chinese people, we have the responsibility to inherit the tradition of calligraphy, and we have the responsibility to spread it to the world so that everyone can understand this excellent art.

Through study, I feel that the following points should be paid attention to when learning calligraphy:

1. Putting the present first

Being able to write does not mean mastering the art of calligraphy. Only mastering the techniques and skills of calligraphy proficiently Knowledge can improve the level of calligraphy art creation from general practical writing to appreciation. In practice, I realized that learning calligraphy first starts with writing calligraphy. We should not only follow the advice of the ancients and worship the ancients as our teachers, but also follow the advice of modern people. However, the Lord should come to ancient posts and famous posts. This is what people often say: "take the past vertically and take the present horizontally." The sages and contemporary masters have discussed this very clearly in this regard, and we just need to follow it based on our own actual situation. For example, Ni Sumen of the Ming Dynasty said in "On Calligraphy": "We must take one of the ancient masters as the leader, with a certain door and courtyard, and a firm foothold. He should be immersed in it day and night, and make sure his brushwork looks like it, so that people will know it when they look at it. Master Qigong said in a letter to calligraphy enthusiasts: "If you take the method as high as possible, you will only get the middle. If you take the method as high as the middle, you will get the bottom. I don't know who said it, because he is right." Listen to him. Wouldn't it be better if we all learn from some ancient masters? It is easiest for people to imitate, but once you imitate, you will never get rid of it until it is too late. "The main thing in writing is to focus on the structure. , the structure is correct, even if all the dots and dashes are deleted, people will still say it looks like a certain family or a certain post. "Mr. Qi Gong couldn't have made it clearer about lingu and linjin. There is also the problem of "entering the post" and "exiting the post". "Xiaocangshanfang Poems and Essays" says: "If you don't learn from the ancients, you will not learn the law." There is no one; I am like the ancients, but where can I find it? "It should be said that Lin Tie is just the premise and method of learning calligraphy. It is the "bridge" and "boat" across the river. Once you cross the river, you have to go your own way and cannot always stay on the "bridge" and "boat". Once the post appears, that is, it is "in the post", how can I "get out the post"? Personal experience: On the basis of "in the post", select several famous posts for study, and choose the best and discard the others. Short, for my own use, through continuous practice and exploration, I slowly formed my own characteristics and style. This is "posting"

2. Diligence is the path

Learning calligraphy involves both "suffering" and "pleasure", and it is about seeking happiness amidst suffering.

The Qing Dynasty's poem "There is a road to the mountain of books, and diligence is the path, and there is no end to the sea of ??learning, and the boat is made of hard work" is quite vivid. It tells the truth of diligent study and hard work. The traditional treasure house has the most abundant foreign wealth. This treasure house is open to everyone. It depends on whether you go to take it, whether you take one thing or many things, and whether you take it once or often. Take. People can’t get rich without taking treasures from others! From this point of view, only by combining one’s talent with the spirit of hard work and hard work, one can be talented but not just dabble in it. Only by practicing hard and forgetting to eat and sleep, the perseverance of "turning back the pen into a mountain", and the understanding of erudite and thoughtful thinking, can you be quick-thinking, handy, strong and soft in the art of calligraphy, and create great works that are magnificent, unrestrained and flying, with your own characteristics and style.

3. Based on emotion

The love and interest in the art of calligraphy is the prerequisite and foundation for learning calligraphy well.

For a good calligraphy inscription. , A good calligraphy work can never be tired of looking at it, practicing it endlessly, and never put it down. You will gain something every time you look at it, and you will improve every time you practice it. This is the charm of art without this kind of hobby. It is impossible to learn the art of calligraphy well without emotions. I have been reading Chu Suiliang's posts since I started practicing calligraphy. I feel that I like his calligraphy, so I never get tired of writing. Only if I like it can I have the patience to sit down and write carefully. Because of the time I spent studying. Short fonts are not very good. I will practice more in the future and hope to get better.

With the increasing popularity of computers and mobile phones, the traditional writing method is facing unprecedented challenges from electronic products, and the level of Chinese character writing has become collective. Decline has become an indisputable fact. However, the impact of new technologies is not the fundamental reason for the decline of people's writing skills. In a modern culture that advocates fast pace and freshness, people are increasingly ignoring the rich artistic value contained in ancient Chinese characters. It has also gradually blunted the ability to examine the unique beauty of Chinese characters, and lacks a deep-seated cherishment and awe of traditional Chinese character culture. In response to the "Chinese character crisis", the Ministry of Education issued a notice requiring primary school students in grades one to three to focus on cultivating students' hard-pen writing skills. At the beginning of the grade, students will transition to learning both hard and soft pens. In the Chinese language courses for grades three to six, one hour of calligraphy class will be arranged every week, and calligraphy elective courses will be set up in ordinary high schools according to the promulgated curriculum standards. Some adjustments clearly require the strengthening of writing teaching. In the first stage of schooling, it is stipulated that "you can write with a hard pen according to the rules of stroke order, pay attention to the frame structure, and initially feel the physical beauty of Chinese characters."; in the second stage of schooling, you are required to "be able to use a hard pen to write block letters skillfully, Be standardized, correct and tidy. Use a brush to copy regular script stickers"; in the third stage of schooling, "Be able to use a brush to write regular script and appreciate the beauty of Chinese characters in writing. ”

For primary and secondary school students, calligraphy classes can cultivate sentiments and enhance cultural accomplishment. For the country, calligraphy classes not only improve the quality of nationals, but also have practical significance in carrying forward traditional culture and nourishing future generations. . Therefore, everyone agrees that calligraphy education starts from childhood. The calligraphy education of students is inseparable from teachers. If we want to carry out "calligraphy in the classroom" smoothly, the biggest problem we face when setting up calligraphy classes in schools is the shortage of teachers. The Municipal Education Bureau made full use of social resources and cooperated with the Qinghai Provincial Calligraphy Association to launch the first calligraphy teacher training class in xx City.

I think this may be the origin of this calligraphy training class for teachers.

In short, this calligraphy training and study not only improves the calligraphy level of our young teachers, but also plays a very important role in inheriting the national culture and art, cultivating people's self-cultivation quality, and further developing calligraphy education activities in schools in the future. important meaning. Calligraphy, as an art, cannot be mastered overnight and requires a lot of energy and effort. In the next period of time, we should try our best to squeeze out time, calm down and think seriously, take active actions, digest and absorb the training knowledge as soon as possible, and achieve the training goals and requirements as soon as possible. Strive to make due contributions to the inheritance of calligraphy.
