The words behind follow the words in front, consistently writing to the end, that is, calligraphy-and life.

Shuigui studied China's calligraphy intermittently since he was a child, but he didn't really take the time to buy copybooks or check calligraphy theory. This is not the case, but the red brush circle written by Mr. Pei, the first teacher of primary school, has always been printed in his heart. When I was in high school, my father was so good at cards that I couldn't help getting some old newspapers and reading them for a while. I am a normal university major and will be a teacher in the future. For a time, I took time off in the morning and evening, stood at the window of the dormitory, learned to play the harmonica and flute on the opposite hill, and occasionally used and practiced "three words and one sentence" (pen, brush, chalk and Mandarin); Later, I joined the work and wrote the announcement of the unit to post. Nevertheless, the water turtle has always been dissatisfied with his calligraphy, and how to improve it seems to be helpless.

I don't know where Tu Yuan read this theory of calligraphy evaluation grade in high school: first-class calligraphy is "peaceful and simple"; Medium-sized calligraphy is "dangerous and hard", while third-rate calligraphy is "kitsch mania". Unconsciously, I have been using this standard to look at myself and others.

Going to Beijing to study that year coincided with my son's summer vacation. That morning, in the scorching sun, the father and son went sightseeing in Dashilan, Liulichang. The tortoise saw a dazzling array of Four Treasures of the Study, so he aroused the enthusiasm of calligraphy and bought a set at a low price. I practiced a few pages casually and left them in my room for a few weeks, so I was too lazy to move any more.

Where I go to work and study, the hutongs at the back door of the building are the places where the terrapin often goes for a walk. Once, I walked with Zheng and turned around, and found the words "calligraphy studio training" written on a red iron gate near the hutong. There are "take books as friends and treat guests with heart" in the book; Believe in kindness, Huiqi has something to do with people, and suddenly she feels interesting: Why not look at how people learn calligraphy?

A few days later, on Saturday afternoon, the water turtle wearing a sun hat passed by with the door open, and he went in with a smile. After taking off his hat, he found that the sunshine outside reflected into the house, which was clear and refreshing. At the entrance, a little boy is sitting on the table practicing his writing brush. Behind him, his father and teacher are talking. Someone came in and the teacher greeted him with a smile and asked him to sit down. The tortoise sat down on the wooden chair of the three-person sofa next to the boy, facing the door that came in, watching him and his parents sitting at a table in the middle of the room, talking about the time schedule for the child to practice calligraphy. The teacher handed me a cup with a small teacup. "Please have tea!"

"Ah-oh! Thank you, thank you! " The water turtle saw that the teacher was in his forties and had a handsome figure. Looking around, the room is a studio, with paintings of different styles and fonts hanging on four walls; On the long table with a shallow wall, there is a thick roll of unfinished thousand-character text. There is a big iron gate behind the right hand, but it is closed and you can't get in. The turtle guessed that this was the landlord's activity space and it was not rented out.

"hello! I passed by the roadside two days ago and found this store, so I wanted to come in and have a look. The door is open today, I want to study! "

"Yes, there happened to be a reception that day. Welcome, welcome. Make friends with calligraphy! It seems that there is a fate! " After the conversation, the water turtle was deeply touched. Afraid of forgetting, I went back to my room and wrote down the main meaning: "Unity and unity, followed by horses; Give consideration to the left and right, and change in a unified way. The doctrine of the mean, being a man and governing the country are the same as calligraphy. Consistency, glance left and right, head-to-tail contrast, and freedom before and after. "

I continued to understand the next day, and I felt that I was still unfinished. I continued to write: "unify the whole article and look forward to the first; First for the post-collar, then for the first succession; Size is not important. Calm and unified, in line with one; Justice, justice and peace; Fat and thin are the same, and the positive slope is the whole. The key is to have a stable brush thickness, change the control stability at all times, and give consideration to both inside and outside. "

To put it simply: the first stroke should be thought well, because it determines the whole article behind; The first word should also be well designed, because the following words follow this style-after the first word is written, no matter what style you used to have, you should give up-you should keep basically the same thickness and decoration (structure) according to the first word of the first pen, and write it slowly and persistently. Of course, subtle changes in the middle of writing are also allowed, such as the adjustment of individual stroke thickness is not too outrageous, the font structure is impartial, and you can even listen to the wind and thunder in thrilling places-there is a rolling momentum under the calm sea, and the principle is not outrageous.

In the first brief conversation, the teacher revealed his understanding of calligraphy without reservation. What Tu Yuan is most puzzled about himself at present is that for calligraphy, the first stroke and the first word are well written, followed by the thickness and position of his strokes, which are basically the same. Consistency and impartiality are the keys to writing-I just couldn't find the reason for uneven thickness before, and as a result, my writing was different.

Isn't it a consistent principle to be honest and establish morality?
