Many adult friends want to practice calligraphy well. Here I will share my views based on my own experience in learning calligraphy.
First of all, you need to build confidence. Adults can also practice calligraphy well. The door of calligraphy is open to people of any age.
When it comes to age, of course it is better to start learning at a younger age. Children have strong plasticity, good receptivity, and are easy to master. Adults have formed certain writing habits and need to overcome past bad writing habits.
The following is some personal experience of practicing calligraphy:
1: Build interest
Interest is the best teacher. If you love calligraphy, you will never tire of practicing it. You can usually read more copybooks, calligraphy lectures, and video tutorials.
2: Find a font you like and practice
Chinese calligraphy has a long history. You will always find your favorite fonts by reading the group posts. Whether it is Ou, Yan, Liu, Zhao, Er Wang or Mi Fu, there will always be a font that makes your eyes shine.
3: Persist in posting, don’t be arrogant or impatient
After choosing a type of copybook, insist on practicing it every day. Start with the single characters first, practice the list well, and then practice the whole text. Don't be greedy for too much.
4: One in-depth study
After choosing a font, first study one of the calligrapher's copybooks, and then study his other copybooks after you become proficient. Don’t visit this place today and that place tomorrow. In the end, neither place will look like you. The path is right and the kung fu is pure!
5: Bypass
If the Linxi family feels that they have achieved something, they can learn from the strengths of other calligraphers and eventually form their own style. At this point, I have basically achieved something.
6: Strengthen the practice of calligraphy skills
If you can only write, you can only be considered a writer. As a calligrapher, calligraphy skills are also particularly important. Literary skills, ancient Chinese skills, aesthetic ability, creativity, etc. need to be continuously accumulated in daily study and life.
7: Focus on learning and communication
You should regard practicing calligraphy as a kind of happiness and communicate more with other people who are learning calligraphy. You can go to my website 15 Calligraphy Network Comments to communicate. There are friends who love practicing calligraphy and calligraphy. You can learn more experiences.
