How can I practice calligraphy effectively? I think you can choose a copybook by a famous artist and copy it. It is recommended to learn regular script first, and then learn running script, a popular font after you have some basic knowledge! I also like to practice calligraphy. My experience is: first of all, you should be serious about writing and write more regular script. If you don’t have a good foundation, you should not scribble. Each stroke must be written correctly, which will help improve pen handling ability (ability to control the pen). Then compare your own words with the same words in the copybook to find out the gaps and shortcomings. Next time you write this character, you need to correct it (the length of the strokes, the structure of the font and the response of the strokes, the priority of the strokes, the order of the strokes, etc.). In this way, don’t be impatient when writing every word well. Practicing calligraphy well is the accumulation of writing every word well!
Adults who are strong-willed and can't write well now are mostly because they didn't pay attention to the quality of handwriting before, and they didn't have correct guidance. Their pen-holding and sitting postures were even more uneven. They were poisoned by China's exam-oriented education. Before taking the college entrance examination, Their thoughts, even those of their parents and teachers, are: Doing a few more questions is more effective than anything else. It is not too late to practice after getting admitted to a prestigious university... As a result, their wrong writing has become a bad habit, which is difficult to correct. .
So when they practice calligraphy, they just tinker with the current font. It is a good method to choose copybooks that are similar to their own fonts for practice, but it does not apply to everyone. To be clear, it does not apply to the vast majority of people. most. This often results in two extreme phenomena.
① I have practiced similar fonts and the effect is very good;
② Because the fonts are similar, the old bad habits are reluctant to be discarded, and the new methods are not used proficiently, resulting in the uglier the more you practice, and even cast a shadow on your psychology and create a lack of confidence.

2. Writing is also a habit. Habitual thinking and habitual writing movements are the main reasons why many people cannot practice calligraphy well. Replacing an old habit with a new one can be challenging. Therefore, when practicing calligraphy, you should always remind yourself how to do it, and develop new writing habits from stroke to stroke. Intensive training in a short period of time is a necessary way to cultivate new habits.
3. Calligraphy practice is a continuous movement. The brain needs to think, the eyes need to see, the elbows need to move, the ears need to listen, and the pen needs to rub. The most important thing is the command of the brain and the cooperation of the fingers and wrists. Therefore, everyone is practicing When writing, think more, see more, listen more, practice more, and regularly exercise the range of movement of your fingers and wrists to enhance the stability and flexibility of your fingers and wrists, which can enhance your pen control ability.
