In general, regular script is the foundation. Only by laying a good foundation can we take the next step. But nothing is absolute. As long as you have a certain grasp of writing now, you can actually practice running script at the same time.

Here are some tips for practicing calligraphy that I have summarized:

1。 Practice writing, not your own. Some friends like to write new words in Chinese. They just look up to see what words are in the copybook and repeat the words in the workbook in the way they are used to. As everyone knows, this practice has been practiced for a lifetime, and finally I wrote my own original font. Therefore, we must observe, think and remember more according to the font on the copybook, and make clear the shelf structure of the font and the shape and position of the strokes, so as to find out the shortcomings of our own fonts more specifically and improve the writing quality.

2。 Practice one page a day according to the copybook, and it is not advisable to practice too many words on one page. You'd better practice one word first, and then change another. Such a line of words can focus on practicing one word, or you can practice comparison. You can see your own shortcomings by comparing copybooks, practice the next line to make up for them, and then make up for them by comparison. Repeatedly, the font will get better and better. In order to deepen the consolidation of the practice object, it is best to practice the same words for a period of time. Practice for a week or ten days, and the words you have practiced are almost written. Change some words and continue to practice.

3。 Practicing calligraphy is not only hands-on, but also a job with both eyes and brain. Eye observation, brain memory and thinking, and then hands-on practice are three essential steps in practicing Chinese characters. Without any one, you can't practice effectively. On the contrary, it's useless to get twice the result with half the effort.

4。 For calligraphy practitioners, indirect structure is more important than strokes. Because the requirement for practitioners is relatively correct and beautiful. We don't do calligraphy, but we actually write. Therefore, practitioners must observe the structure of the font frame, observe the specific position of each stroke, and then memorize the exercises.

5。 Practicing calligraphy is generally copying before coming. You can use the method of tracing red to understand and master the font, and then come again. In the process of approaching, we must find the shortcomings while approaching, so as to continuously improve.

6。 Have a good attitude "Rome was not built in a day." Practicing calligraphy is by no means a one-off event. Please adjust your mentality, don't rush for success, don't give up halfway, you must persevere, and it is possible to write fonts that satisfy you to the greatest extent.
