Traditional seals have a wide range of meanings. I'll just say a few familiar seals (in fact, I only know a little) ~ ... The official seal used to review articles is the seal used by groups and organizations, which has certain legal effect. And the shape is fixed. (Either round or square) Because of time and staff, the printed seal is not complete, especially the outer ring, which generally looks like a fine sand powder (I can't find anything to describe it). I looked at the calligraphy and painting seals online, which are generally square, but because they are my own masterpieces, they are printed more seriously than the official seals, so the borders are clearer than the official seals! The last two signature stamps were stamped by others ~ just like I bought them when I was a child, the effect is actually similar to the official seal. After all, it's all made by machinery (I don't think it's right, please help me revise it). Then there are ancient seals, mostly made of metal or stone. I never had a chance to see this entity with my own eyes. I've seen it online, and it's all printed in font. In fact, the effect makes no difference. Personally, I think the difference in effect lies in the inkpad ... it may be the material of the rubber stamp, and the printed things are not so vague, which is one of the reasons why I chose it for DIY. Maybe ... and rubber is soft, and it can carve many tiny textures and things (of course, it's hard to say whether I'm half-filled), so the pattern covered is more delicate. Moreover, the rubber stamp is used for DIY, so the color is much richer than the official seal, and the choice of inkpad is slightly different from the official seal. If you choose ordinary inkpad, you will feel fine sand (of course, the official seal is more prominent), but if you use colored pens and watercolor pens as inkpad of rubber stamp, the printed effect will be different ~ and rubber stamp can also imitate various types of materials with different tools. Rubber stamps don't need spacious workplaces, complicated tools and materials, good art foundation, and don't need too much time and money. As long as it is the material mentioned in the first paragraph, individuals can carve it without much artistic expertise. In addition, because rubber is easy to carve, tools can be more casual in order to carve different patterns. For example, if I want to make a small round hole, I will poke it directly with a refill ... The traditional seal making is also relatively simple, and the hand-made materials are monotonous, but with the passage of time, atomic seals and photosensitive seals have also appeared. I can't even say how much I know, so I won't be embarrassed ... check the original post >>
