WashiGang News: Calligraphy Workshop
Hi Gang!!!
Did you know we have a WashiGang workshop coming up soon? Led by the talented Ali from Creative Inking, the Introduction to Brush Pen Calligraphy workshop is a great starting place for using brush pens! This workshop was so popular last time, we had to do another one! It's a really approachable workshop for beginners, with lots of tips and techniques, including lettering guides! Our participants could even see a difference in their technique by the end of the workshop. Join us for our Introduction to Brush Pen Calligraphy workshop on the 17th of April, from 10am-12pm, at WashiGang! We only have a few spots left!!!
To get you inspired with some of our fave brush pen products, we've made a pen test using our Artline Decorite Metallic Brush Marker Pens. These pens are really fun to use! The Decorite Metallic Brush Markers have a fast ink flow, with a medium-firm flexible tip. We love the wide variety in bold-fine lines that you can create using these pens. They come in a range of rich colours and also have a pretty shimmer!
If you'd like to practice at home, here are a few workbooks and good brush pens for beginners that we have available in the shop:
Have you heard of junk journaling? Starting a junk journal is a fun and creative way to repurpose materials while creating a unique and personalised journal. The junk journaling style is perfect for memory keeping and getting crafty and creative with collage. It also allows you the space to write as much or as little as you like and can be used more as a visual journal if you don't enjoy writing much. Junk journaling is a great way to practice mindfulness and find your creative flare.
Not sure how to get started? Read on for our tips on how to start a junk journal.
