Speaking of brushes, I believe everyone is familiar with them. Brushes are often used in calligraphy practice, and some people even spend a lot of money to find a good brush. So what kind of brush is good for beginners of calligraphy? How to clean the brush after use? Let's take a look. What kind of brush is good for beginners of calligraphy?1. First of all, consider whether you are writing small characters or large characters. If you are writing large characters of 5 cm square, you should choose a mixed-hair brush. Wolf-hair brush is too hard to write and spread, while goat-hair brush is too soft to control. 2. If you are starting with small calligraphy, you can choose a wolf hair small calligraphy brush. Small calligraphy mainly uses the tip of the brush. Wolf hair is firm and elastic, easy to control and produce results. Or you can use a chicken-spur brush for small calligraphy. 3. When choosing a pen, pay attention to the fullness and roundness of the pen belly, and the uniformity of the overall wrapping of the hair. This kind of pen absorbs ink well and the ink is smoothly dispensed. In short, the four requirements are "sharp, even, round, and key". Don't buy the kind of pen that suddenly narrows to a very sharp point (except for the chicken-spur pen). 4. It is not advisable to choose a long-tipped pen because the waist of the pen is too high and difficult for beginners to control. 5. When opening a new brush, never use hot water as it will deform it. Also, do not soak the brush for too long. Just soak the brush and wash out the glue inside. 6. Wash the large brush after use and hang it with the tip facing down. 7. My experience is that you don't need to wash the small calligraphy brush after using it. Just cover it with a pen cap so that it won't dry out. This is because the residual ink on the waist of the pen can wrap around the waist of the pen more softly. When you dip the hair into the ink, the waist of the pen is firm and easy to control when writing. This is also convenient. Those who have different opinions can try it. Figure 3 is the small calligraphy I often use. How to clean the brush after useCleaning the brush after use can extend its service life. The cleaning method is very simple. Turn on the faucet a little. The water flow should be as thick as a chopstick. Don't be too strong. Put the tip of the brush perpendicular to the water flow and rinse it for a while. Then pinch it gently with your fingers to wash away the remaining ink. Then use a roll of paper to absorb the water. Hang it up. What should you pay attention to when buying a brush?The pen handle should be straight and not bendable. The heavier the better. Second, choose the brush hair. First, use warm water to dissolve the brush hair, squeeze out the excess water on the brush tip, and at the same time, arrange the brush tip and gently draw on the white paper. Then turn the brush tip upside down to see if there are any crosses in the brush hair and whether it is elastic. If there are crosses, it proves that the brush is of poor quality. The better the brush, the better the elasticity. Third, for general calligraphy practice, you can use a Hu brush. This brush is reasonably priced and of medium quality. |
