Coffee + Calligraphy Workshop @ SM Sta. Mesa
September 29, 2016
It was an eventful day at SM Sta. Mesa as we celebrated Coffee Fest with a touch of art. This would be my first solo workshop for basic watercolor calligraphy for free. In this event, we didn’t use watercolor as one medium alone thus played along with coffee as well and that went pretty great.
We waited for people to fill up the vacant seats for the first batch. Moreover, we were going to cater two batches; 3 pm: first batch and 5 pm: 2nd batch. It was great to see that a lot were keen to learn it and we’re able to gather 20 interested artsy souls in no time.
Most of it were students and I met many familiar faces I got to interact through blogs/social media.
Here I am oddly/happily hosting and giving introduction about the agenda of the workshop itself.
Here goes the kiddos.
Invited them up stage showing how to’s/demo. They were all pretty serious about it. Let them be familiarized with the right strokes and how delicate it is to achieve its smooth consistent flow. It takes patience!
After the talk, they got back to their tables and I roamed around to see how they were all doing. I figured millenials are fast-learners and they got it immediately after mastering the strokes.
Like this one here! :)
Several attempts to group selfies as they show their first masterpieces.
Literally got sweet thank you notes after the event. I felt like a legit art teacher!
Cheers to the creative minds. May you always find time to do the things you want to pursue, pair it up with a cup of coffee I’m certain you’ll do better. This is just the beginning!

CALIGRAFIA January 14, 2017.
I got so overwhelmed bc over 60+ attended the demo and workshop at SM BF Parañaque. Now, this one’s an indication of a good start to teaching art and planting creativity in all unfamiliar hearts this 2017. Yes, I used to dream of that simple (impossible, or so I thought) life goal and I’m sincerely the happiest that finally, I can share all things that makes me really alive.
To make other people feel the same. That’s the most fulfilling part of all.
Cheers to more creative pursuits!!!!
• Pale + mornings + coffee
I bravely played with Adobe Illustrator for six hours! I have no idea how to use it honestly but with the help of online tutorials I got to compose something despite being clueless!!!! I have been meaning to do pale illustrations or play with my favorite default palette. This is a different approach, I’d practice more to get really better at it. There’s so much to learn, I’m excited.
I’d compile my digital illustrations in Behance and Instagram.
Sea of clouds, you’re stuck in my mind.

With all the rakets + business + work combined. I got to save, curate and style my own tiny safe space after braving the chaotic independent living for three years. Slowly achieved the sea + japandi interior dreams, this one resonated well with me. Welcome to Porshelana home/studio! ✨
