Open Flourish | General Discussion / Re: What do you think of the IG group Calligraphy Masters?

I don't think that they are called that because they consider themselves masters. I think they share the work of the people they think are masters of their trade and I can't find anything wrong with that. Who hasn't got a folder or a drawer called "masters" with work of people they admire at home? I know I do! And I guess CM is just that, a collection of work the curators think of as masterful.
I don't find everything they post masterful or exceptional, but some of it is. And beauty is in the eye of the beholder I guess.
I actually approve of feature pages like that because:
1) You discover new and interesting people to follow because you share an interest
2) I myself like being featured, not because I think I'm a master or I'm follower-crazy, but because I think that pages like this can help like-minded people to find you and get in touch.
