The basic strokes in the Eight-character Method of Yong are side stroke, strangulation stroke, crossbow stroke, stroke stroke, sweeping stroke, pecking stroke and licking stroke.
first, the writing principles of the eight strokes of the Chinese character
The eight strokes of the Chinese character are the calligraphy rules of China, named after the eight strokes of the Chinese character. The Eight Methods of "Yong" is used to illustrate the rules of Chinese character writing. The guiding principles of the Eight-character Method are: the point is on the side (for example, the bird turns upside down), the horizontal is for pulling (for pulling the horse), the vertical is for crossbow (for exerting force), and the hook is for hook (for jumping, the same as jumping).
Take it as a strategy (such as riding a horse with a whip), skim it as a prey (such as grazing the hair with a grate), short it as a peck (such as a bird's peck), and hold it as a prey (sounding philosophically, cracking the sacrifice as a deep one, shallow it is said and deep it is said).
second, the eight-character method and the law of Chinese character construction
the eight-character method is a manifestation of the law of Chinese character construction. Through the in-depth understanding of the eight methods of permanent characters, we can better grasp the construction law of Chinese characters. The rules of Chinese character construction include strokes, radicals and structures. In terms of strokes, the strokes of Chinese characters have different forms and changes, which have been fully reflected in the Eight-character Method.
radicals are an important part of Chinese characters, and the change and combination of radicals is also an important aspect of the construction law of Chinese characters. The combination and change of different strokes and radicals are also reflected in the Eight-character Method.
the application of the eight-character method
1. the application of ink method and composition in the eight-character method
in terms of ink method, mastering the changes of ink shade, dryness and wetness can show the charm and beauty of calligraphy. In the process of writing, rich ink color effects can be created by controlling the amount of ink dipped and the writing speed. For example, when writing strokes such as the side, the neck and the crossbow of the Chinese character, the sense of strength and dynamics of the strokes can be expressed through the change of ink color.
in terms of composition, mastering the changes and application of composition can show the overall effect and aesthetic feeling of calligraphy works. In the process of writing, we need to consider the arrangement between words and the layout between lines. For example, when writing strokes such as strategy, grazing and pecking, the whole work can be more harmonious and unified through the echo and coherence between words.
second, the application of calligraphy style and style in the eight strokes of the permanent character
seal script is characterized by uniform thickness and smooth strokes. When writing the strokes of the permanent character, you can use the stroke method of seal script to show an ancient and elegant style.
The style of running script is flowing and generous. When writing strokes such as the strokes of permanent characters, you can use the method of running script to show a fluent and free style.
