What is the format of China's calligraphy?

Brush calligraphy format

1, text content, text written from left to right, behavior written from right to left.

2, strictly abide by the requirements of the signature format.

Signature format

First of all, format: beginners should use single paragraph.

1, interpretation: only the next paragraph (two paragraphs are the upper and lower paragraphs). Beginners often have no books to read, so it is best not to delete the previous paragraph.

2. Single segment is divided into long segment, short segment and poor segment.

(1) Long paragraph: The writing time, name and place of the text source, together with the author's feelings or reasons for creating this work, should have a long aftertaste, which can reorganize the focus of the work and reflect the author's cultivation. There are many gaps in the work or for the need of composition, you can leave a long paragraph.

(2) Short paragraph: It only includes the source, time, name and place of the text. If the work is full, you need to leave a short paragraph.

(3) Poor section: If there is not much paper left and there are too few blanks, you can just write the author's name, which is called "poor section". Such as one word and two words.

3. Signature position (consider clearly before layout)

(1) Couplet: Sign in the bottom couplet.

(2) Others: the traditional writing method is engraved on the left, and the modern writing method (from left to right) is engraved on the right.

4. Precautions for signature

Not flush with the text, but staggered (otherwise it will appear monotonous). Leave a few words blank from top to bottom, preferring to tighten and loosen, rather than tighten and loosen.

5. Signature font

"Wen Gu Grace" and "Zheng Wen Grace".

Characters are regular script, and inscriptions are regular script or running script, but running script should be running script rather than running script, otherwise it is not harmonious.

The font size should be smaller than the font size of the text (about 1 times, or smaller), so as to distinguish between primary and secondary.

The above signature forms can be vertical or banner works.

Third, the signing time.

The lunar calendar (lunar calendar) is a lunar calendar; If you use the solar calendar, you will use all the solar calendars. Traditional content is not suitable for the solar calendar. Write from the left and sign on the right; Write from the right and sign on the left.
