  • When we do that little "reverse direction" step in a more circular motion, the start of that brushstroke is round ( 圓筆 ). When we do that little "reverse direction" step in a more angular motion, the start of that brushstroke is more angular ( 方筆 ).

  • At the starts and/or endings of "angular" brushstrokes, the tip of the brush goes in angular directions rather than circular to make the starts and/or endings look more squared than rounded.

    Since I have practiced 藏鋒 for years, I do it in a very concise manner. 藏鋒 is achieved when the brush tip goes first in a "reverse" direction of a stroke at the start ( 起筆 ) and then the direction of the stroke, thus the tip of the bristles is hidden ( 藏 ).

  • Can you explain more on how to write the angular start of each stroke?

    Thanks.
