Sihaiwang: holding a pen is the basis of calligraphy. Wrong holding a pen will lead to slow writing speed, scribble, and other problems, so here, we will talk about the correct holding posture and force. It can be said that many friends usually know whether the way to hold a pen is right or wrong, or maybe they know that their holding posture is unique but they don't know how to correct their holding methods.
What is the right way to hold a pen
There is no fixed way to write. Indeed, everyone's hands are different in size. If we have to put the pen on the tiger's mouth as the standard, it will inevitably make many people unsuitable. Correct writing varies from person to person, but in consideration of the need of fast and good writing, it is necessary to relax the fingers and use the wrist as the main force. At the same time, the angle between the pen and the desktop is about 60 degrees, and the distance between the fingers and the pen tip is about 1-2cm, so as to maintain the flexibility of writing.
1. The angle between pen and paper is about 50-75 degrees.
2. When writing, do not put your thumb on your index finger, or put your thumb on your index finger. The thumb and forefinger should be kept in a state of indistinct separation.
3. The forefinger belly, the right half of the thumb belly, the first interphalangeal joint of the middle finger and the metacarpophalangeal joint of the forefinger are in contact with the pen.
4. The ventral part of the index finger, the right half of the ventral part of the thumb are the main driving points, the first interphalangeal joint of the middle finger is the secondary driving points, and the metacarpophalangeal joint of the index finger is used for positioning.
5. When writing 'hook' and other strokes from the bottom right to the top left, the ring finger should assist the middle finger to kick the hook, and should not lie on the paper.
