Looking forward to meeting fellow calligraphy enthusiasts and sharing the joy of calligraphy. Since childhood, due to family poverty, I learned Chinese calligraphy through self-study, and I was fortunate to receive encouragement from my strict family, teachers, elders, and classmates, winning awards in public competitions. Later, under the guidance of Mr. Chan Man-kit, the lifelong honorary president of the Hong Kong Calligraphy Society, I opened the door to clerical script and especially appreciate his works on the Han stele, the Shimen Song, and the Songgao Ling Temple stele, which I foolishly believe are the pinnacle of calligraphy in Hong Kong. In recent years, I also completed a diploma course in calligraphy creation at CUHK and gained some insights. I suggest that learners start with clerical script to build brush techniques and strengthen their brush power, ensuring that every stroke is executed at the center of the brush, penetrating the back of the paper. Then, progress to regular script (Ouyang Xun, Yan Zhenqing, Chu Suiliang, Zhi Yong, Liu Gongquan, Yu Shinan, and Zhong Yao), seal script, northern stele (also known as Wei stele or Wei regular script), and cursive script. I also teach hard pen calligraphy, advocating for the practice of copying from calligraphy models.

Some people study calligraphy for more than a decade but still can't produce a decent piece. However, there are others who, in just three years, have gradually developed their calligraphy skills, achieving good results in exhibitions and competitions. The reasons for success or failure in learning calligraphy boil down to three factors: first, the skill level of the teacher; second, whether the proper methods of learning have been chosen; and third, whether the teacher can implement effective teaching methods. Teacher Ma, who has practiced calligraphy for 50 years and has been teaching for 20 years, began with the calligraphy of the Jin dynasty and selected masterpieces from various dynasties for students to copy and study in-depth. In addition to understanding character formation, they also learn complete composition. In class, larger works are copied to prepare for future exhibitions. After class, students are given homework to practice at home, and in the next session, collective corrections and peer reviews are conducted. The teaching practices over the past twenty years have demonstrated that students effectively master calligraphy, achieving remarkable results. Teacher Ma Runxian (alias Laoji) currently holds the following positions: 1. Member of the China Calligraphers Association; 2. Vice President of the Hong Kong Branch of the China Calligraphers Association; 3. Vice President of the Jiazi Calligraphy Society; and 4. Calligraphy lecturer at the University of Hong Kong School of Professional and Continuing Education (HKU SPACE)

Although I started learning from scratch, the teacher can follow my steps and teach me carefully. In each class, he will comment on my words and write a few words as a demonstration. His comments were pertinent and pointed to the mistakes of my words, but he did not forget the benefits of my words and encouraged me to keep writing. In this short year, my understanding of calligraphy and Chinese culture has deepened a lot, and I have become able to write some works that I am satisfied with.
