Holi Heart 2018 Exchange Sign Ups are Now Closed!
« on: January 15, 2018, 12:08:10 PM »
Our first exchange of the year is now open for sign ups!

Holi is an ancient Hindu spring festival also known as the Festival of Colours or the Festival of Love. It is a day where people laugh, play, celebrate forgiveness and love, and cover each other with colors! Let's share the colors and love.

Sign Up Deadline: 01/29/18
Post Mark Deadline: 02/12/18


PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE – Consider your schedule carefully before signing up for an exchange. Your list members are counting on you! :-) Be creative – write a letter, a poem, or a story; use a new tool, or a new style. The exchanges are a chance to flex your creative muscle, have fun, learn new things, expand your repertoire, and play.

Somehow I didn't participate in ANY exchanges last year :( I'm starting this year off right so that doesn't happen again!

Hello everyone,

I am very new to calligraphy, I pick up my first pen around five weeks ago and have been practicing since then.

I would love to participate in the exchange, but I am not very good.  I have a couple of queries before I sign up if someone could help.

1.  Being so new to calligraphy am I able to sign up, or is there a certain standard before you can participate?

2.  I am not at all creative or artistic, so would just writing, as long as it was relating to Holi be ok?

I would be greatful if anyone could let me know if it would be ok to sign up.

Regards

Diane

Hi Diane

Please do participate - just select beginner level on the sign-up form - everyone is very welcome, and your lettering alone would be more than enough - don't feel any pressure to be 'arty' - your interpretation will be appreciated by everyone who receives I am sure.

Kind regards
