Calligraphy Experience (1) I have been studying calligraphy for some time. Now I summarize my experience in learning calligraphy as follows:
First of all, as a teacher, I can write well and write well, which is what my profession requires! So in this case, I began to learn calligraphy. Writing is a very important basic skill for teachers, especially Chinese teachers. The words we often write are chalk words in class, pen words written on paper in peacetime, and occasionally brush words. These are the three words that our teacher often says.
Since I learned calligraphy, I think calligraphy has the following advantages:
1, the most basic thing is to write your own words beautifully;
2. You can cultivate your own sentiment. Calligraphy requires patience and perseverance. Therefore, while practicing calligraphy, you can cultivate your mind, which is very helpful to improve your quality. Some people say "words are like people", which I think may mean.
I think the benefits of learning calligraphy are mainly the above two points.
So how have I been learning calligraphy?
First of all, I should pay attention to forming good habits in my usual work and study. When I need to write, I will take it seriously and never be careless. I will practice stroke by stroke, so my calligraphy will gradually get better.
Then, after work, take some time to learn famous calligraphy. For example, every week, I always take some time to practice calligraphy. While practicing, cultivate sentiment and enrich life after work. There are many famous calligraphers here, such as Yan Zhenqing, Liu Gongquan and Zhao. I like them all. No matter which calligrapher or font, I will practice. Use the advantages of others to make up for your own shortcomings. From regular script to official script, to running script, cursive script and so on, I am learning. I think cursive script can best reflect people's character, so cursive script is the most difficult to practice. Maybe only calligraphy can make cursive script.
After a period of study and practice, I think we should pay attention to the following points when learning calligraphy:
First, you should study calligraphy diligently, and it is important to keep practicing. There is no shortcut to calligraphy, and all the words are written by strokes. Only by persisting in practice can you achieve something after a certain period of time. Don't think about immediate results and quick success.
Second, to learn calligraphy, you should be diligent in thinking, and it is best to find a teacher. Calligraphy is an art, and it is best to have a guide to enter the door of art. If you can find a famous teacher as your teacher, learning calligraphy will get twice the result with half the effort. If you can't find a teacher, you can always look at the copybook and see the works of famous artists in previous dynasties. When reading a work, you should think about the structure, shape, strokes, strength and layout of the word, and how to make a word have an artistic sense, that is, it is both beautiful and charming. To do this, I need to observe and experience for a long time, and I think this is what I want to achieve.
Third, calligraphy should have its own characteristics. Of course, this refers to a higher level of calligraphy. When calligraphy reaches a higher level, we should consider adding our own characteristics, combining our own understanding and sentiment of calligraphy, and embody our own ideas in calligraphy, and truly realize that words are not only tangible and beautiful, but also have both form and spirit. This is a good calligraphy.
There is a saying that if you want to practice your handwriting well, you have to work hard outside it. When you feel bored or have no progress in practicing calligraphy, you can do some other activities that are beneficial to your physical and mental health, such as gymnastics, martial arts, dancing, fishing, etc., which will help improve the practice and level of calligraphy.
In a word, calligraphy, as an art, can't be accomplished overnight, and it needs a lot of energy and painstaking efforts. It should be mentioned that you should cultivate your interest in learning calligraphy at ordinary times. Interest is the best teacher. Only when you have great interest in calligraphy can you practice good calligraphy.
Experience of Calligraphy (2) Calligraphy is a bright pearl in our Chinese culture, shining with brilliant light. Today, after listening to the report of teacher xx, a calligrapher, I got a new understanding of calligraphy. Calligraphy is based on Chinese characters and written with a brush. We can explore and understand it from its essence, aesthetic characteristics and unique expression techniques. It embodies the basic law of "unity of opposites" of all things, and reflects people's subjective spirit, temperament and cultivation.
Professor xx said: "Calligraphy is rooted in the deep soil of China traditional culture." This time, I also realized that it is not enough to really write calligraphy by learning techniques, but also to understand and explore its corresponding cultural connotation. The evolution history of China's calligraphy: Oracle Bone Inscriptions-seal script-official script (cursive script, regular script)-running script, and carefully study their development law and changing law.
The structure of Chinese character writing should pay attention to: horizontal and vertical, highlighting the main strokes, natural principles, changing principles, virtual and real principles, and elastic principles, that is, the eight methods of "forever". After mastering the principles, I think it is more important to study calligraphy diligently and insist on practicing. There is no shortcut to calligraphy, and all the words are written with strokes. Only by persisting in practice can you achieve something after a certain period of time, and don't think about immediate results or success. Learning calligraphy requires diligent thinking, and it is best to find a teacher. Calligraphy is an art, and it is best to have a guide to enter the door of art. If you can find a famous teacher as your teacher, learning calligraphy will get twice the result with half the effort. If you can't find a teacher, you can always look at the copybook and see the works of famous artists in previous dynasties. When reading a work, you should think about the structure, shape, strokes, strength and layout of the word, and how to make a word have an artistic sense, that is, it is both beautiful and charming. To do this, I need to observe and experience for a long time, and I think this is what I want to achieve.
I will pay attention to form good habits in my usual work and study in the future. When I need to write, I will take it seriously and never be careless. I will practice one stroke at a time to make my pen handwriting better and better.
Calligraphy Experience (3) I have liked calligraphy since I entered normal school. I have always admired the words of teachers xxx and xx. After joining the work, I was busy teaching and educating people because of my enthusiasm for work, but my likes and hobbies never stopped. I always buy some posts I like to read to practice. After teaching in xx Middle School, I also subscribed to China Calligraphy for study. However, due to the poor foundation, many places are always incomprehensible, and I just started writing with occasional interest. After work, I read some books on calligraphy and got some inscriptions. After working in a government department, this interest is getting stronger and stronger. As long as you think the post is good, you will write it. After the work of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, especially inspired by Secretary X's hobby view, I have seen, thought and practiced more, and have some deep-seated views. After repeated instruction from teacher xx, my ability to know, understand and appreciate calligraphy has been greatly improved. Now learn to talk about some feelings and experiences.
First of all, it is very important to be present.
There are many people who can write, but only by mastering the skills and knowledge of calligraphy can the artistic creation of calligraphy be improved from ordinary practical writing to ornamental. The first question we encounter when learning calligraphy is "What to learn and how to learn"? In practice, I realize that learning calligraphy begins with copying calligraphy. It should be posted by the ancients, worshipped by the ancients as teachers, and posted by the present. But it should mainly be ancient posts and famous posts. This is what people often say, "Take the ancient vertically and take the present horizontally." On this point, the sages and contemporary masters have made it very clear, and we just need to do it according to our own actual situation. In his letter to calligraphy lovers, Master Qi Gong said, "He who takes the method gets the middle, and he who takes the method gets it." No matter who said it, as long as it is reasonable, you have to listen. It's the easiest thing to look like now, but once you look like it, you can't get rid of it all your life, and it's too late to regret it later. "Writing a post mainly depends on the structure, and the structure is right. Even if the gestures are deleted, people will say that they are like a family, like a post. " Mr. Qi Gong made it very clear that we are facing the ancient and the present.
Second, you are diligent.
There are "bitterness" and "pleasure" in learning calligraphy, which means seeking pleasure in suffering. In the Qing Dynasty, there was a poem "There is a way to learn in the mountains, and the sea is boundless", which vividly and profoundly revealed the truth of diligent study and hard practice. Mr. Feng Guoyu, a calligrapher, famously said, "Why did you come to the world without mercy? If life is good, you will be tired. " This profoundly reveals the calligrapher's broad mind and tireless pursuit spirit. He said: I practiced calligraphy and went through the five steps of purgatory. In Tianmen, Yue Long, the tiger lies in the phoenix que, the sword is in the forest, and you can walk freely, all of which put presence first. Post a famous teacher, don't admire the false reputation, concentrate on thousands of troops. This is a ... I am eager to pursue it with my hands. I don't want to find another way and create a new style. Here are two. Accept, learn and tolerate, heaven and earth are teachers, and everyone is a teacher. This is three. Knowledge, character and cultivation go hand in hand. This is four. Understanding is the fifth. What is understanding? "Understanding is the first, I said understanding is to forget the machine. A flurry in Zhang Changshi, the fallen petal flying snow monk wearing cloth, got the bone and marrow inherited the previous training, and the ancient style is not vulgar. Epiphany is born of diligence, and the chest is full of pens. " It can be seen that without diligent study and hard practice, thorough research and serious experience, it is impossible to achieve anything in calligraphy art. However, it is not enough to "work hard". There is also a question of learning and practicing methods and skills. Ouyang Zhongshi, a famous calligrapher, said: Chinese characters are not good at practicing, but good at learning. Learning is taking, and taking is learning. Think of yourself as a "writer". The ancients Rainbow, Xi Zhi and Yan Zhenqing wrote it best. You can't write well unless you honestly learn from the sages and insist on taking treasure from the traditional treasure house. He also said: horses are not fat without night grass, and people are not rich without external wealth. As far as learning calligraphy is concerned, "foreign money" means learning from outsiders, learning the advantages of outsiders, and absorbing or even "grabbing" all the good things from outsiders. You can't enrich and cultivate yourself without learning from outsiders. Among the "sending foreign money", the traditional treasure house has the richest foreign money. This treasure house is open to everyone, depending on whether you take it, take one or more pieces, and take it once or often. People can't be rich without taking other people's treasures! From this point of view, only by combining people's talents with the spirit of being studious and eager to learn, can we be talented without dabbling, devote ourselves wholeheartedly, forget all about eating and sleeping, persevere in "retiring from writing" and be knowledgeable, so that we can be smart, handy, rigid and flexible in calligraphy art and create good works with our own characteristics and styles.
Third, constant love.
The love and hobby of calligraphy art is the premise and foundation of learning calligraphy well. For a good calligraphy tablet, a good calligraphy work, we are often tired of reading and practicing, and we can't put it down. We will gain something after watching it once, and we will improve after practicing it once. This is feelings, and this is the charm of art. Without this hobby and feelings, you can't learn calligraphy well.
Emotional factors are very important in calligraphy art, and calligraphy pays attention to skills and feelings. Many old comrades have a good foundation, but their feelings are not good, and their writing is dead and rigid. Skill is technology, and perception is spirit, which are two different levels. This is what people often say: practice calligraphy with a calm mind and a peaceful mind. This requires both hard work and mastery of rules and regulations; We must also see the situation, rush headlong into it, be generous and not overstep the moment. The so-called heart and hands are smooth, and work and feelings are satisfactory. Make what you think, feel, believe and do with your pen come to life, and complete the vivid process of showing your talent, temperament, personality and aesthetic feeling.
Experience of Calligraphy (IV) From X to X, I was lucky enough to be sent to attend the first training course for calligraphy backbone teachers of xx education system "Famous Calligraphy Entering Campus" held by xx Middle School. The purpose of this training course is to promote "calligraphy into the classroom". Primary and secondary school teachers in the city listened to the lectures given by famous teachers from xx Calligraphers Association, Hard Pen Calligraphers Association and xx Calligraphers Association. They gave incisive explanations and guidance to the history, writing and teaching of calligraphy.
For calligraphy learners, the three-day training time, just a blink of an eye, has made me deeply touched and benefited a lot. During the training, through the words and deeds of the calligraphy teacher, I got a deeper understanding of calligraphy, broadened my horizons, increased my knowledge, improved my understanding of calligraphy art, and made me realize the profoundness and long history of calligraphy art in China. Although the training was short-lived, I felt deeply and benefited a lot. As a young art teacher, this training not only gave me a more systematic understanding and new understanding of calligraphy professional knowledge, but also made me realize the importance of educators' inheritance of calligraphy.
During the training, the tutor's patient explanation gave me a brand-new understanding of the art of calligraphy. I always thought that calligraphy was writing, and writing well was learning calligraphy well. My hobby of calligraphy is usually drawing according to my own interests and drawing a tiger according to a cat. Now I know that it is a narrow understanding, a single one-sided understanding, a very good understanding and a wrong understanding. Mr. Lu Xun once said: "Chinese characters have three beauties: the beauty of meaning is the beauty of feeling, the beauty of sound is the beauty of feeling ears, and the beauty of form is the beauty of feeling eyes." Calligraphy is an art, and the formal beauty of calligraphy art is formed by the regular combination of lines on paper. Either you can simply write well, or you can learn calligraphy well. Calligraphy is an art that needs hard work and time to learn. If you want to make achievements in calligraphy, you must first observe it, which will directly affect the accuracy of writing. Only by "entering" the copybook wholeheartedly can we achieve meticulous observation. After observation, you should know how to read stickers. Looking at stickers depends on the strokes, characters, ink and composition of the characters, as well as the characteristics of each stroke and the rhythm and rhythm of each stroke. If you think the paste is correct, you can paste it. Of course, the paste here is not "painting a gourd ladle", but trying to restore the pen used by the ancients as accurately as possible. When pasting, paste it into the bone, so that the written words can be "tendon", "bone" and "meat", which will not look like two skins with the ancient words. After observing, reading and pasting, copying and copying to a certain extent, you can add your own style to create.
Calligraphy cannot be practiced overnight. It takes a long time to persevere and a lot of thought and energy. This is the common sense of the teachers who participated in this training. Therefore, as a teacher, especially a Chinese teacher, it is not only the study of professional knowledge, but also the responsibility of inheriting the traditional calligraphy culture in China. China has a profound culture and a long history. Calligraphy, as a traditional art of the Chinese nation, is an excellent culture in China for 5,000 years. It is integrated with China culture and Chinese national spirit. It has profound cultural connotation and is a wonderful flower in the world art forest. I think learning calligraphy has many advantages. It can cultivate our artistic accomplishment, cultivate noble sentiments and improve cultural quality. You can gradually develop a good habit of being meticulous, patient and serious, which is also conducive to the exercise of your will; Can learn writing, literature and history and other knowledge; Can be influenced by the national spirit and traditional virtues. Therefore, as China people, we have the responsibility to inherit the tradition of calligraphy, and we have the responsibility to spread it all over the world, so that everyone can understand this excellent art. Through learning, I think we should pay attention to the following points when learning calligraphy:
First, kiss.
Being able to write does not mean mastering the art of calligraphy. Only by mastering the techniques and knowledge of calligraphy skillfully can the artistic creation of calligraphy be improved from the general practical writing to the appreciation level. In practice, I realize that learning calligraphy begins with copying calligraphy. It should be posted by the ancients, worshipped by the ancients as teachers, and posted by the present. But it should mainly be ancient posts and famous posts. This is what people often say, "Take the ancient vertically and take the present horizontally." On this point, the sages and contemporary masters have made it very clear, and we just need to do it according to our own actual situation. For example, in "On Calligraphy" in the Ming Dynasty, Ni Sumen said: "We must take the ancient masters as the patriarch, have a certain family background, have a firm foothold, and immerse ourselves in it day and night to ensure that the pen is pretty and let people know that it is such a small group." In his letter to calligraphy lovers, Master Qi Gong said, "He who takes the method gets the middle, and he who takes the method gets it." I don't know who it is, because he is right and has to listen to him. Because it wouldn't be better if we studied some ancient masters together. What people look like now is the easiest, but once they grow up, they can never get rid of it, and it's too late to regret it later. "Writing a post mainly depends on the structure, and the structure is right. Even if the gestures are deleted, people will say that they are like a family, like a post. " Mr. Qi Gong made it very clear that we are facing the ancient and the present. There is also a problem of "entering the post" and "posting" on the job. "Fang Shan's Poems" said: "If you don't learn from the ancients, you can't; Where is the struggle like the ancients? " It should be said that Lin Tie is only the premise and method of learning calligraphy, and is the "bridge" and "boat" across the river. Once you cross the river, you should go your own way and not always stay on the "bridge" and "boat". The post looks like it's coming, which is "in the post" How can you "publish"? Personally, I realize that on the basis of "joint post", I choose several famous posts for temporary study, learn from their strengths, abandon their shortcomings and use them for me. Through continuous practice and exploration, it gradually forms its own characteristics and style. This is "posting".
Second, take diligence as the path.
There are "bitterness" and "pleasure" in learning calligraphy, which means seeking pleasure in suffering.
In the Qing Dynasty, there was a poem "There is a way to learn in the mountains, and the sea is boundless", which vividly and profoundly revealed the truth of diligent study and hard practice. There are a lot of foreign currencies in the traditional treasure house. This treasure house is open to everyone, depending on whether you take it, take one or more pieces, and take it once or often. People can't be rich without taking other people's treasures! From this point of view, only by combining people's talents with their studious spirit of struggle can we be brilliant, devote ourselves wholeheartedly, forget all about eating and sleeping, and persistently "retire from writing", so as to achieve profound knowledge and profound thinking, and then we can achieve agility, dexterity, flexibility and harmony in calligraphy art and create good works with our own characteristics and styles.
Third, based on emotion.
The love and hobby of calligraphy art is the premise and foundation of learning calligraphy well.
For a good calligraphy tablet, a good calligraphy work, we are often tired of reading and practicing, and we can't put it down. We will gain something after watching it once, and we will improve after practicing it once. This is feelings, and this is the charm of art. Without this hobby and feelings, you can't learn calligraphy well. I have been reading Chu Suiliang's calligraphy since I started practicing calligraphy. I think I like his calligraphy, so I will never get tired of writing. I have patience only when I like it. I sat quietly, writing carefully. Because of the short learning time, the font is not very good. I hope to practice more in the future.
At present, with the increasing popularity of computers and mobile phones, traditional writing methods are facing unprecedented challenges from electronic goods, and it has become an indisputable fact that the writing level of Chinese characters has declined in groups. However, the impact of new technology is not the fundamental reason for the decline of people's writing level. In the modern culture that advocates fast pace and freshness, people begin to ignore the rich artistic value of ancient Chinese characters more and more, gradually passivate the ability to examine the unique aesthetic feeling of Chinese characters, and lack a kind of treasure and awe of traditional Chinese character culture. In order to cope with the "crisis of chinese characters", the Ministry of Education issued a notice, requiring primary school students to focus on cultivating their hard pen writing ability in grades one to three, and from grade three, they should pay equal attention to hard pen and soft pen. In the Chinese curriculum of grades three to six, one class hour of calligraphy is arranged every week, and calligraphy is an elective course in ordinary high schools. According to the published curriculum standards, some adjustments have been made to the part of "literacy and writing", and it is clearly required to strengthen the teaching of writing. The first issue stipulates that "you can write with a hard pen according to the rules of stroke order, pay attention to the frame structure, and initially feel the physical beauty of Chinese characters"; The second stage requires "being able to write block letters skillfully with hard pen, so as to be standardized, correct and tidy." Copy block letters with a brush "; In the third stage, I will write regular script with a brush and experience the beauty of Chinese characters in writing. "
For primary and secondary school students, calligraphy class can cultivate sentiment and improve cultural literacy. For the country, calligraphy class not only meets the requirements of improving the quality of the people, but also has practical significance of carrying forward traditional culture and nourishing future generations. So everyone agrees that calligraphy education should start with dolls. Students' calligraphy education is inseparable from teachers. The biggest problem is the shortage of teachers in order to successfully carry out calligraphy into the classroom and offer calligraphy classes in schools. The Municipal Education Bureau made full use of social resources and jointly held the first training course for calligraphy teachers in xx city with Qinghai Calligraphy Association. I think this may be the foundation of this calligraphy training class for teachers.
In a word, this calligraphy training not only improves the calligraphy level of our young teachers, but also has great significance for inheriting national culture and art, cultivating people's cultivation quality and further developing school calligraphy education activities. As an art, calligraphy can't be practiced overnight, and it needs a lot of energy and painstaking efforts. In the future, we should try our best to squeeze out time, calm down and think seriously, take active actions, digest and absorb training knowledge as soon as possible, and achieve training goals and requirements as soon as possible. Strive to make due contributions to the inheritance of calligraphy.
