Kneel for the master ~ thin gold writing!

Font Description: Song Shoujin style of Mera Mountain Bird is a calligraphy font created by Evonne (1082~ 1 135). Also known as hand strength book or hand strength body, also known as crane body, is a kind of regular script. In his early years, he studied under Xue Ji and Huang Tingjian, and joined the Chusuiliang schools. He was quite slim, beautiful and comprehensive, and changed his style from Xue Ji to Huang Tingjian, which was called "Thin Gold Body". It is characterized by being thin and straight, with a horizontal pen with a hook, a vertical pen with a point, throwing it like a dagger, holding it like a knife, and a slender vertical hook; Some couplets are like hairspring, close to calligraphy. His pen originated from Chu and Xue, and it was written in detail. The closing gesture was written in Huang Tingjian's big script, which was very imposing. "Imitation of Song Style" in modern art fonts is created by imitating the charm of Shoujin style.

Thin gold book is a unique font, which is fast and erratic with fine handwriting, so as to be thin without losing meat. At the corner, you can clearly see the traces of Tibetan front and exposed front. From the image, this book should be "thin and hard", and "gold" is easy to "hard", which is a respect for imperial books.

Font skill

For some reason, the order is out of order (forgive me)

The second chapter is the side-lying brushwork-showing thin fingers. Before the thin gold body grows, lie on the paper with the nib facing outwards, the belly facing inwards and the nib facing sideways, so as to seek stability in times of danger. The sword goes sideways and can be self-contained At all times and in all countries, only heaven and earth people call themselves the leaders of Evonne Daojun.

The beauty of calligraphy lies in the use of pens. Success or failure with a pen depends on holding the pen first. There are four main ways to hold a pen:

1, perpendicular to the paper;

2. The grip with the front side to the right and the pen holder to the left;

3. When holding the pen, the front side is left and the pen holder is right;

4, for the combination of 2 and 3.

The brushwork of 1 is beautiful and useless. It is a self-binding method, because no one can keep the pen stick perpendicular to the paper when the pen is moving, especially when writing cursive. Brushwork 2 is dignified and convergent, but it does not conform to the physiological law of right-handed operation. I feel my backhand is against my feet, and the strokes I write are easy to tremble, which is not suitable for writing light and elegant gold bodies. If Huang Ting is firm enough, it is quite appropriate. The brushwork 3 is easy to write and flowing. Whether you run from left to right or from top to bottom, you can broaden your horizons and have flexible wrists, which is most in line with the physiological law of holding a pen in your right hand. There is only one thing: when writing obliquely or holding a pen, because the pen tip is down to the right, the pen belly is in front and the pen tip is behind, there is no need for a pen tip, and the strokes written are bound to be bloated and weak, and the fine gold body with iron and silver hooks can not be written, such as seal cutting. Brushwork 4 is based on brushwork 3. When encountering oblique points, vertical hooks or strokes, write with brushwork 2. The combination of the two is more perfect

The following two points are the most critical (important), which should have been demonstrated by pictures, but it is not convenient to transmit pictures at present, so write them down as follows:

1, the relationship between finger and pen holder;

The "lying pen method" is similar to the way we hold chopsticks when picking vegetables and rice, except that one of the two chopsticks is removed and the pen is twisted with three fingers, which can be loosened and tightened, and the wrist can be rotated forward, left and right. The wrist is gently attached to the surface of the paper, so you can rest your wrist when writing, and move with the front end of the pen when writing, keeping an arm's length from the paper. (If you write a big word or list that your wrist can't control, you must hang your wrist and elbow. )

2. The relationship between pen and ink and paper and the formation of "eight methods";

Holding the pen in the right hand, the axis of movement is in the lower right corner, and the place where the eyes face is the vast world where the pen runs freely. Finger holding a pen, heart holding a pen, writing on paper, forming a clever combination of stippling and stippling, forming fonts and even chapters, in which stippling is the foundation. Here are eight basic strokes:

Brush is divided into two parts: "belly" and "front" (sketch)

Horizontal: long horizontal, brushwork 3, pen like a knife, paper like wood, cutting the front into the paper, into the wood. The tip of the pen is up to the left, and the belly of the pen is down to the right. (keep this state) from heavy to light, quickly cross to the right, as in carving. At the end of the pen, grab the pen, turn it upside down to the right, the tip of the pen is up to the left, and the belly of the pen is down to the right. Take some notes and go back to the front to collect the pen. (The beginning of the pen forms a knife-shaped bevel, which is clean and neat; The tail of the pen is vertical and the pen is hidden in front, such as "grass", "cover" and "plate" in Xia poetry, but it is not the last stroke, and the hook is exposed in front, and the line is connected with the next stroke, such as "Qing", "Huang" and "Long" in Xia poetry. )

Short horizontal, the writing style is the same as long horizontal, and the stroke at the end is lighter or slightly noted, that is, the stroke is completed and the stroke is heavier. Such as "rain", "long" and "much" in summer. Short horizontal pen collection also has hidden and exposed points.

Punctually horizontal, the writing is the same as long horizontal, the strokes are short, and the tail is not touching. It is often used beside the words "wood" and "grain", such as the word "cup" in summer.

The left tip is horizontal, the pen is light to heavy, and the end is recycled. It is often used beside the prefix "grass" and hands, such as "yellow" and "shake" in summer.

Willow leaf is a characteristic pen with thin gold body. Light at both ends and heavy in the middle. If it is spindle-shaped, it is exquisite and beautiful. It is often used at the horizontal folds of the words "Kou", "Yue" and "Tian", such as the short horizontal line of the word "Xun" in summer. The word "Liu" in Fang Fangshi and so on.

Vertical: long and vertical, the pen is drawn horizontally, the nib is on the left and the belly is on the right. From top to bottom, push the nib down quickly with finger force until the end is killed, and take the opportunity to rotate the pen to the left and wind it horizontally to finish. The pen stop angle is larger than the horizontal drawing angle, slightly close to 45 degrees. When the vertical painting is on the left, there are many hooks in front, which echo the strokes on the right. The vertical tail angle is vertical or slightly to the left, such as the vertical of the word "one, one, one and one" in the square poem. There are many hidden fronts in the middle or right, such as the word "drunken dance pen" in the "Mo" post. The vertical end is vertical or slightly inclined to the right. For example, "Ci, Suo and Qu" in Qian Wen Zi.

Short and vertical, with the same strokes, drawing without stopping, short and thick, slightly to the right. For example, the words "clear, timely and correct" in Summer are short and vertical.

Skimming: Skimming, drawing horizontally with a pen, pressing the pen into the paper, and quickly moving the nib from heavy to light to left and down. Pay attention to ensure that the pen is placed obliquely on the paper, the nib is always at the top left, and the pen belly is always at the bottom right. The ending is sharp and powerful, and it is invincible. The Deviation of the Words "Zero, Change and Same" in Mo.

Short skimming is the same as oblique skimming, only shorter.

Vertical strokes are commonly used, such as "beside the moon, with the same word box". When you start writing, draw a vertical point, write it down a little, then gently raise the pen to the right and write a vertical figure, press the front slightly to the middle and lower part, and then flick it to the left. The tail is pointed and curved, and the whole stroke is slightly to the right. For example, the word "Hou Feng Dan" in the post of "Xia" is vertical.

Willow leaves curl, commonly used "factory prefix, wide prefix", which is similar to vertical curl, but the shape is straight and the inclination is large, the starting point must be connected with the previous point, and the vertical point is not obvious.

Eight Methods of Thin Gold (Ⅱ)

Fourth, the writing of hooks and points: oblique and flat. Pen is the most difficult and beautiful of the eight methods of thin gold, and the strokes are oblique and flat. Here from the angle, strength, length of three aspects to analyze the writing of Si:

1, Angle: The strokes of the strokes are from the upper left to the lower right, and "Stroke 2" is required (see the above four strokes). The oblique stroke makes an angle of about 45 degrees with the horizontal plane, and it twists and turns. The first wave is short and slightly higher on the left and lower right. Level the bottom of the tail. The flat angle is small, the tip is slightly higher than the tail, and there are twists and turns. The first wave is short, about 45 degrees to the right, and the tail is slightly upturned but lower than the tip.

2. Strength: Turn the pen against the front for the last stroke of the flat lift, and force the pen from left to right to the highest point, and move from heavy to light to the lower right corner. At this time, you must hang your wrist or wrist on paper. Pay a little attention to the lowest point, and then tap the pen to the right to sweep out the tail. Pay attention to the pen tip up, the pen belly down, the tail long, and the blue leaves should sway in the wind. The rest of the writing is the same as the flat pen, but the angle is different.

3. Length: In Tian Zige. All the strokes are different (see "word-for-word analysis").

How to write a hook

How to write a hook

How to write a hook

Hooks are divided into four categories: horizontal hook, vertical hook, oblique hook and curved hook, which are described in detail as follows.

1, horizontal hook, at the end of horizontal drawing, make a strong stroke to the lower right, and then hook it to the lower left. The hook tip is long and straight, like a short stroke. The angle of the thin gold hook blade is relatively flat, almost parallel to the horizontal painting, such as the horizontal hook with the words "Tang, Yun and Lou" in the thousand-character script.

2 vertical hook, write a vertical picture from the beginning of the pen until the end of the pen is written, and then hook it hard to the left. The vertical hook next to the word "He" is divided into "poetic" and "extended", which is slender and introverted, and the hook tip is pulled into a crescent shape and turned up to connect with the sketch. The brushwork is flying and smooth, and it is a characteristic pen of thin gold body, which was changed by Wang Xizhi's running script. As shown in the figure:

3 (1) vertical hook, also known as floating goose hook, is a commonly used pen for words such as leaf, flower and color. The curve is round and powerful, with a flat bottom and an angle of about 90 degrees. (2) Cross hooks, peaks, etc. With a pen, bend about a quarter circle, and the hook tip looks back at the corner. If couples look back, they will look around.
