Generally speaking, chalk characters require "horizontal before vertical" and tend to "hide the pen" (press the pen). Write steadily and evenly, so that the lines are strong and smooth.
When writing a turning stroke, you should use a pen at the turning point. When writing a curved stroke, your hand should twist the chalk as the stroke bends. Don't use a pen to make the lines form a folding belt at will, which will lead to weak lines and a feeling of powerlessness. Generally, it is necessary to "return the pen", and the pens such as hooking, skimming, lifting and hanging the needle should be put forward according to the trend, but the internal force should be kept unchanged and the force should be exerted on the head.
In the process of writing, not every stroke can be clearly explained according to the above requirements, especially for strokes in a secondary position, those strokes that should be hidden can be treated as missing strokes. Because chalk writing should have a proper speed, the effect of pen hiding is not obvious, so "meaning" is enough, but whether writing strokes in the main position or strokes in the secondary position, the pen must be in place.
Chalk characters are square characters, but the founder of the characters is not absolute, but the overall feeling. Most of the words are just the beginning or end of the strokes at the edge of the box (a few are slightly beyond), and other places are within the box. In the process of practice, we should first form the understanding that the word is square, and then pay attention to properly express the feeling of the whole word: the strokes on the side and across the side should be positioned well, and the strokes not on the side should be written in place.
There are two kinds of chalk characters: single words and combined words. The words of combination structure are divided into up-and-down combination, up-and-down combination, left-and-right combination, left-and-right combination, up-and-down combination, internal-external combination and staggered combination. It is very important to practice chalk characters and analyze the proportion of each part of the combination structure to accurately locate the strokes of each character.
