Of Emojis & a La Union Workshop

Hello from Singapore! 🙂
I don’t usually have time to blog while I’m on a trip but today, I just had to spend time to recover from our early morning flight–hence, lack of sleep. I’ve been kinder to my body ever since I got pregnant. I’m also resting & gathering some energy for a couple of Watercolor & Lettering Workshops tomorrow! I can’t believe it’s happening! I mean, 5 months ago, it seemed like a rather scary & distant idea. So, thank you so much to Abbey & Mansy for pushing me to do this! Thanks too to Pauline, Maan for helping spread the word! 🙂

Speaking of friends, recently, especially in Instagram & chat apps, we’re all been addicted to looking for the right emoji and Facebook stickers. I don’t know why but it’s fun. Now, I wonder how much time people actually really spend looking for the right thing to post! 🙂

Thanks to all those who participated in our Instagram post here by replying with emojis! 🙂

I can’ believe we’re having workshops by the beach come end of August! We were in La Union a few months back and Mansy, Abbey & I were daydreaming about holding a workshop together out-of-town. 🙂 Now it’s real! 🙂 We will be in La Union for the long weekend! I will be holding a capsule workshop of Brush Lettering. The workshop will only be 2 hours because we’re pretty sure you want a relaxing version of the usual intensive course especially when your ears are being fed with the soothing sound of crashing waves & rustling leaves.

1 Watercolor Brush

1 Zig Fudebiyori Brush Pen

1 Lettering Worksheets

1 Pencil

1 Eraser

1 A4 300gsm Watercolor Sheet
