I want to learn Chinese painting. It is said that learning Chinese painting requires practicing calligraphy first. Which words should I practice first?

Calligraphy and painting have never been separated since ancient times. Learn calligraphy first, you can have a certain foundation of using pen and ink, which is conducive to painting Chinese painting.

As far as my teaching experience is concerned, I can use any position. The key is what posts you like.

Generally speaking, it is better for beginners to use ancient posts. It's not that this position is not as good as the old one, but that it's difficult for you to communicate with others because you often don't study in this position.

Now the most popular regular script posts are Yan style and European style. There are two reasons for this. First, it's really beautiful. Secondly, there are many people who practice these two kinds of copybooks. It is good for ordinary teachers to have the energy to study and learn one font, so they can only teach others these two kinds of copybooks, and their students can only learn these two kinds of copybooks. From generation to generation, only these two fonts have the most mass base in society.

But I didn't. I usually let students choose the fonts they want to learn. For example, many girls like Zhong Shaojing's Ling Fei Classic, and many children like Rainbow Xizhi's lower case letters. If you like it, it shows that the aesthetic tendency is more likely to resonate with this font, and it is easier to grasp the law and spirit of this font. Learning will naturally get twice the result with half the effort

Because different students choose different fonts, teachers naturally have to study and learn different fonts in a scientific way, which is also very rewarding for teachers.

So I think, you don't have to ask who has a good copybook. You should ask yourself whose copybook is good. What you think is good is what you should learn. Others can be different from you, and you can be different from others.

Why do you want to follow the crowd?

Wish: Learn something.

thank you
