Kate Attends Anina Rubio’s Calligraphy Workshop

Calligraphy Philippines

 

Here are some random snapshots of a calligraphy* workshop I attended yesterday, Sunday, at the Hey Kessy Studio in Katipunan, Quezon City. πŸ™‚ I was too engrossed during the drills that I forgot to take more photos! I still have that high from learning new things about something I love (what a nerd! hihihi.) and meeting people who share the same passion. I was thrilled to finally meet Anina Rubio whose work I follow on Instagram. πŸ™‚

*Calligraphy is the art of beautiful writing. πŸ™‚

The early birds get the…empty nest shots! πŸ™‚ Can’t hide the excitement. I was there at the venue almost an hour before the workshop schedule. πŸ˜‰

The workshop kit — pencil, straight holder, three nibs, washi tape, inky dips, a bottle of black ink, and worksheets! πŸ™‚

As they say, learning is an investment. πŸ™‚ So here’s to more workshops this 2015! πŸ™‚ Cheers!
