BONJOUR

If you didn't know it yet, I practice calligraphy and do some art. I wouldn't say I'm a pro already but here's the little practice that I recorded a couple of weeks ago. I hope you'll like it. Don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel!! 

I'll see you soon. 

If you haven't noticed it yet (if you don't follow my social media accounts), I am into a new hobby: calligraphy. I've always wanted to try this however, I didn't have the time and right tools. Early this year, I decided to finally give something to myself: I bought two brush pens. I didn't get to use them for a long time, though. I also found it a bit hard to use since it was something new, a thing I want to learn.

Utilizing what I already had, I decided to use my Prang watercolor and a few brushes instead. Getting the hang of using a brush in writing is a bit hard but with enough practice, you'll get used to it. This photo is an example of how my days go now: I usually spent a lot of time sitting down, practicing how to write. 

Still clueless, I  don't really know if what I'm doing is calligraphy itself. Before I went on with using a brush and watercolor, I used to cheat calligraphy. It's a good practice, nevertheless. Grabbing a ballpoint pen, writing in cursive, and thickening the sides of the letters is how I used to do it. In this way, you are practiced with the swirls and you become more familiarized with the fancy cursive writing.

I am looking forward to having a dip pen soon and learn more. For now, I have to practice with what I have. Hopefully, I would be able to buy calligraphy/writing books too. If you're a beginner like me, I recommend reading blogs with a calligraphy content and looking up for the alphabet. It helps! 

Here are two of my latest works: I decided to write with acrylic paint. It's a bit hard to work on since it's thick but I'm satisfied with how it turned out!

If you're a close friend of mine or a family member, you would know that I spend most of my time locked in my room, listening to some music, while reading, painting, or writing. I find so much comfort by doing such and it's hard to explain, really. I get so lost in a world that I've created and I don't know what'll happen if someone bursts that bubble. Sometimes, I get weird looks for even in public places, I still manage to bring out a book or a sketchpad/my journal. But here, let me share some stuff with you.

These are some things I've drawn/painted/written from the past year/months. Some are from my watercolor pad, some are from my old journal. I can't really say that I'm good with this since I still feel doubt whenever I try to explain my feelings in words or art. 

P.S. I know it's inevitable for you to think that these are basic art and whatnot. I don't care, really. You have your own opinions and I have to respect that.
