书法是指书写汉字的方法和规律。包括执笔、运笔、点画、结构、布局（分布、行次、章法）
等内容。因为硬笔书法和毛笔书法有一些相同之处，所以我们先练习一段时间的硬笔书法，便
于循序渐进地掌握书法的规律。
Calligraphy refers to the methods and rules of writing Chinese characters. Including how to
use pen, brush, dot, structure, layout and othe, because the hard pen calligraphy and brush

calligraphy have some similarities ,so we first practice hard pen calligraphy for a period of
time, easy to master the law of calligraphy step by step.
国画起源于中国书法（calligraphy），在本质上是一种线性 艺术，绘画形式简洁生动，能唤
起意象和表达与情感。Originated from Chinese calligraphy, Chinese painting is essentially
an art of line, the painting forms are concise nd vivid,which attempts to arouse images and
express emotions with paintings.
因此，中国书画学习不仅能够提高修养，还具有陶冶性情的作用。
Therefore, the study of Chinese painting and calligraphy can not only improve the cultivation,
but also has the role of edifying temperament.
