Composition, also known as line drawing, refers to how to arrange a work as a whole and how to treat all parts as a whole in calligraphy creation.
Composition involves the handling of the relationship between words and lines. In calligraphy creation, the difference between one mistake and one word will affect the effect of the whole article. The so-called "adding one point makes it long, and subtracting one point makes it short" is not only true for the structure of a word, but also for the whole work.
There are different rules and regulations. A small composition is how to arrange the stippling relationship within a word, or how to arrange between words. The big chapter is not only the planning and arrangement of the relationship between words, lines, words, inscriptions and printing. It also requires that the lines of a work should be echoed and expected, coordinated and fluent, and have a sense of integrity.
