Hi! I'm Katrina from Melbourne, Australia
« on: September 01, 2015, 10:39:03 AM »
Hi! I'm Katrina Alana and I'm currently based in Melbourne. I'm originally from the Philippines and I lived in Singapore for the past 7 years before moving here this year.

I created my account sometime in 2014 but haven't really had the time to be active in this forum but it was always at the back of my mind. I'm eager to get to know more about the people in community and hopefully make some new friends.

I'm learning Copperplate, Brush Script and Spencerian. Variety keeps me from getting bored :)

Yay! Welcome back to Flourish, Katrina! Your modern calligraphy workshop was the first class that I attended and is what started my journey into the pointed pen world. Hope you're having an amazing time in Melbourne! :)

Hope it was a fruitful session. Your work is awesome. I follow you on IG too. Thanks for the warm welcome Mapet!

I'm hoping to continue my calligraphy here. There seems to be a local guild that I can join.

Katrina hi, welcome!!!  I'm Moya, also from Melbourne.

I'm currently the editor with the CSV - I can definitely help you out with membership, we'd love to have you!  We are a pretty traditional group, and we have some seriously talented teachers - not to mention that we fly in some international heavyweights every year  ;D ;D

So good to meet more Aussie calligraphers!
