Chinese calligraphy is the art of lines The cursive script generated online by the cursive font converter can be said to have reached the acme of line beauty 。
As for the origin of cursive script, Wang Jingfen, a contemporary calligraphy theorist, wrote: "Zhangcao and Jincao are independent calligraphies formed from clerical script, which started from the convenient and fast practical writing, so cursive script comes from the folk." Zhao Yi's article "Non cursive Script" in the Eastern Han Dynasty explained that cursive script was the earliest calligraphy style that people appreciated as an art. According to Xuanhe Shupu, there were 65 cursive calligraphers in the early Song Dynasty. The cursive fonts collected by the first font website that can be converted online at present are Two Wangs Father and son Chu Suiliang 、 Mi Fu 、 Ouyang Xun 、 Zhao Mengfu 、 Sun Guoting , Yu Youren and others Calligraphic font 。
The emergence of cursive script has, to some extent, broken through official script and regular script Although it also has the stipulation of characters and symbols, it simplifies the lines of official script and regular script, and changes the situation that official script and regular script mostly appear in a static symmetrical appearance, instead making the lines take the main part in a dynamic curve. The flowing curve of cursive script gives people a strong sense of life, so it has stronger expression and creativity. The appearance of big grass or wild grass font has increased this ability. It breaks through the order between words with more simplified lines, strengthens the flow range and speed of lines, strengthens the beat of line rhythm, expands the expressive force of lines, gives people more freedom of creation, and more clearly shows people's inner world. The famous calligrapher of modern times, Mr. Situyue, wrote in his article "Cursive Script and Otter Sacrifice": "The beauty of cursive script can be summarized in two words: one is" Lian ", because cursive script is really a line art, so it is particularly suitable for Lian. Zhang Zhi's current grass is like flowing water. It is up and down, or up and down, or above the next word by borrowing the words below. It is strange to combine the shapes, numbers and meanings... The font is composed of one stroke, occasionally without connection, but the blood is continuous. The second is "change". The cursive characters are changing. At first glance, the strokes are just lines. A closer look shows that there are various forms of competition. "
