In shufa, a common practice to gain calligraphy skills is to study/experience classical calligraphy work through replication（臨帖）.
Through the process, we can dissect these trails of wisdom and gain insights on many things, including but not limited to stroking, spacing, degree of pressure, character construction and the flow.
Here is a version of full replication practice of Mengfu Zhao's （趙孟頫）version of "Ode of Chibi, Part 1", originally written by Shi Su （蘇軾）
Lots of learning this round! For anyone want to sharpen their running scripting style, this masterpiece is a must-study!
