I read an article about Tang Guoqiang's calligraphy not reaching the beginner's level. Is it true or not? Let's wait and see!

I won't say much about who Tang Guoqiang is, let's take a look at his calligraphy! Overall, his calligraphy is the result of hard work, and the lines are good, and you can tell at a glance that he has practiced, but his calligraphy is not good enough, and some of his characters are not neat enough, and they are written arbitrarily, so he is ridiculed as "jianghu", and some people even say that he has not yet entered the door.

I think this statement is too exaggerated. Liu Xiaoqing's calligraphy level is not high enough. It would be more accurate to say that Tang Guoqiang's calligraphy level is not high. Some of his works also have some skills, such as "Culture Makes the Country Prosperous".

I think these characters are OK. Compared with Tang Guoqiang's calligraphy, they are nothing compared to his. Whether it is the texture of the lines or the arrangement of the characters, they are worth scrutinizing!



Let's continue reading. This book is "Looking at the Waterfall at Mount Lu" written by Li Bai. The whole calligraphy looks very loose, and it is obvious that the control of calligraphy needs to be improved!



The one below is okay, with the words: "I am not moved by fame or fortune, I sit and watch the flowers in the courtyard wither; the clouds roll and unfold, carried away by the wind.

We can only see half of the words in this painting, but I think it's okay and not as bad as everyone says.



From some of the above works, we can roughly understand that Mr. Tang's handwriting is okay, but if it is large, it will be too messy.

Another thing is that some of the words are written in a mess and are difficult to understand. Just like this picture, I can’t understand the word in the middle, and I don’t know who can understand it. I would like to ask for your advice!
