There are no shortcuts! !
Practicing calligraphy is the exercise of thinking activities and sensory organs, and it is a special skill formed with eyes, brain and hands. It never attends meetings, relying on others to lead the way or explore by itself. From meeting to getting familiar, you must go through repeated writing training. Under the guidance of scientific practice methods, it is the successful way to learn writing to improve gradually in repeated writing training. Specific efforts should be made in the following aspects:
First, stimulate motivation and cultivate the will to hurt.
According to the theory of psychology, motivation is the desire and intention to arouse people to act or restrain this kind of action, and it is the internal reason to promote people's behavior. Motivation is closely related to needs, and the basis of motivation is human needs. People's needs include physiological needs and social needs, and practicing calligraphy is a social need of people. It is necessary for primary and middle school students to practice writing in order to improve their writing level and master scientific and cultural knowledge. Adults' handwriting practice is the need to convey information and improve work efficiency; From the artistic point of view, practicing calligraphy is the need for people to pursue beauty.
People's need to practice writing is not spontaneous, but gradually formed under the guidance of practical experience and educators, thus generating emotion and strong interest. Only in this way can we better stimulate the motivation of practicing calligraphy. Otherwise, I'm not going to practice calligraphy, so I can barely cope. It must be a slippery brushwork, loose structure and slow progress; This will affect the interest in writing.
Will is especially important for people who practice writing. People realize the importance of writing, and after they have the desire to practice calligraphy, they should make plans, choose practice methods and practice step by step according to the requirements of practicing calligraphy. This kind of psychological activity, which consciously determines the purpose, dominates and regulates one's actions, and overcomes difficulties to achieve the expected purpose, is the process of tempering the will. It is not easy to practice good handwriting. As the saying goes, "write a word for a hundred days."
Practicing calligraphy should go through a process of repeated training, gradual improvement and formation of writing skills. In this process, you will feel bored, the practice time is difficult to guarantee, and the effect is not obvious. At this time, if there is no good will to practice calligraphy, there will be a phenomenon of abandoning the pen and not practicing. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the exercise of the will quality of practicing Chinese characters, overcome the difficulties encountered in the practice process with patience, perseverance and confidence, and take time out of your busy schedule to persevere. It is necessary to make long plans and short arrangements, seek quality instead of quantity, and write and practice every day. If you can write two or three words every day, you can practice more than two most commonly used words in two years. In short, we should make progress slowly, don't be discouraged, and our achievements are obviously not worthy of pride. As long as we don't stop and practice hard, we will eventually reach our ideal destination.
Second, step by step and practice the rules.
Step by step is a universal principle for people to learn scientific and cultural knowledge. This principle requires learning according to the logical system of disciplines and the development order of human cognitive ability, and gradually and systematically mastering basic knowledge and skills. This principle is determined by the strict logical system of subject knowledge itself, and it is also the objective requirement of people's understanding and ability development from shallow to deep, from easy to difficult, and there is an "order" to follow.
The structure of Chinese characters is a logical system from simple to complex, with strokes as the smallest unit. Practice writing should follow this systematic order and practice step by step. However, emphasizing step by step is not the only order. Because the relationship between strokes, radicals and structures of Chinese characters is interrelated and influential. For example, the strokes of Chinese characters and the structure of Chinese characters, in order, should practice the strokes first, and then practice the structure, because the strokes are the basis of the structure.
However, when practicing strokes, it is not enough to practice strokes alone, but also with the structure of words, because the same stroke has different forms of expression in different word structures. Only by combining strokes with the structure of specific words can we gradually write qualified strokes. At the same time, in the process of practice, we should also determine the key points and difficulties of practice according to the content of practice, and we should not allocate time evenly, blindly seek more and faster, be down-to-earth, step by step, make more efforts to master the main points of writing, and write articles well to achieve the expected goals.
To practice calligraphy according to the rules is to practice calligraphy according to the statutes. Only by following the rules can we practice calligraphy according to the rules. In addition to the above-mentioned step by step, we should pay special attention to the word "serious" when practicing calligraphy. To practice calligraphy, we must first be calm and enter a quiet world. Do it: calm down and write slowly, read posts and patterns, write first, one by one, and write better than the other. Beginners should master the structure and size of Chinese characters, practice on paper with grids, and make full use of grids to understand and master the structural characteristics and types of square Chinese characters. The way to practice Chinese characters should be copying and copying, and gradually master the writing skills of Chinese characters in the process of copying.
Third, copy is combined with mastering the law.
The experience of learning books and practicing calligraphy in ancient and modern times proves that copying copybooks is the only way and an effective method. Copying is to put the copybook under transparent calligraphy paper and draw it with strokes according to the words appearing on the copybook. The handwriting required to be described cannot exceed the stroke trajectory of the words on the copybook. If copying a brush copybook, the strokes described should follow the center line of the strokes on the copybook; If you copy a pen copybook, the strokes described should be exactly the same as those of the words on the copybook. In this way, over time, you can learn the line trace and font structure of the words on the copybook.
Sticking is to put the copybook next to the calligraphy paper. According to the calligraphy and painting "gourd" on the copybook, the strokes are required to be similar, and attention should be paid to the changes of thickness, rhythm and thickness. In this way, over time, you can learn the meaning of the words in the copybook. Because it is difficult to copy a book, you should copy it first. Because copying and copying are two complementary means of learning books and practicing calligraphy, we should combine copying and copying step by step.
In the process of copying copybooks, we should also pay attention to the following issues:
First, you are single-minded first, and then knowledgeable. Those who have just started practicing calligraphy should concentrate on practicing after choosing the copybook. They shouldn't change copybooks at will. This is because each copybook has its own characteristics and system. Write this today, write that tomorrow, and you can't write the last one. Only when one copybook is done and written can other copybooks learn from others.
Second, reading copybooks carefully is the premise of copying copybooks. Reading posts is like reading a book, in order to know the truth, not just reading or copying books. Only by reading and reading carefully can you be impressed, write like it, and remember it well. For the words on the copybook, how to write strokes, how to arrange structures, and how to arrange rules. Everyone should carefully ponder and find out the rules, so as to write interesting and vivid.
Third, we should pay attention to the effect of practicing calligraphy. In the process of copying copybooks, don't blindly pursue copying more and faster, but pay attention to the actual effect of copying, so that once you write, you will make progress and once you copy, you will gain. Only by concentrating on the war of annihilation and copying difficult words repeatedly can we achieve tangible gains and make continuous progress.
Fourth, we should pay attention to mastering the law. In the process of copying, don't stop at understanding and practicing each specific word, but pay attention to summing up the differences and connections between words, so as to understand and master the similarities in writing a class of words, so as to get twice the result with half the effort. The progress of practicing Chinese characters can be greatly improved in this way. This law can be summed up through our own copying practice, and we can also learn from the experience summed up by others. Novice writers should learn from others' experience, so as to avoid detours and save time. In fact, this requires people to practice calligraphy. They should read some books or listen to some lectures on calligraphy techniques, first understand the truth, practice under the guidance of the law, experience the law in practice, and then use the law to better guide practice and consolidate and improve writing skills.
