I had such a great time on my September workshops! For the month of September I partnered with Patricia from Fancy Girl Design Studio (@patfancygirl) for a two in one workshop of Modern Calligraphy and Watercolor Florals… .Flourish and Florals! Every workshop I do is a unique one. I am not just saying that to “entice” people to sign up. Each and every workshop I do, for me, is unique and special and memorable in it’s own way. It has always been like that since the very first one I did. That has kept me from feeling burned out and jaded about what I do. That may come off as naivety to some who are more seasoned in the business side of art. But so far, this mindset is working for me, so I’ll keep on it.
Anyway, before I digress.. haha! .. I’ve always been wanting to do a workshop together with Patricia. I’ve been a fan of her watercolor projects and she’s always my go to girl when it comes to web design. We’ve been talking about doing workshops together but our schedules too so long to cooperate! When it finally did, we sold out our first workshop in just 24 hours after announcement. And because of requests, we have to open another one. To say that we are grateful will be an understatement.
I am grateful for the people I meet through my creative journey. I am a big fan of learning new things. I am a self-taught creative and I love sharing whatever I know especially to those who’ve never tried calligraphy before. Hahaha seeing the smile on their face when they hear that scratching sound of nibs on paper. Eureka!
My biggest thank you to Vanessa of VeeLoved , for taking these wonderful photos during the workshop. And another big Thank you to my good friend Michelle, who spend time assisting me during the class. A big Thank You as well to another dear friend, Cher , who dropped by during the Sept 5 class to show and share with us some of her work. She is super talented in drawing portraits. She was generous enough to give out a free portrait to one of the participants of the class! And she also did a portrait of me ! Look how good she is! She made me look human!! (That’s not an easy feat! Haha). I am truly blessed with friends. And I am truly grateful for them.
Anyway, less words, more photos…
xx,
Dee
