I always teach classes with walnut ink, because it’s a great and reliable ink that helps make life easy for beginners, and more importantly, it’s easy to clean up and I want my venues to let me come back 😅 But this crazy combination of gold powder and pink gouache is making me never want to use anything else 😍😍😍 Do you think @brighthq.venue would mind if I stained everything in their building bright pink on Saturday? Just a little? Pink looks great in a conference room, right? . (I’m joking, if you’re reading this, @brighthq.venue 😅 Please don’t ban me, I love you!) . I won’t bring it to class ... but I’m pretty sure it’s finding its way into my travel kit anyway. I’ll be in Brisbane for a few days, I can’t possibly be away from the sparkly for that long! And I’m definitely making name tags for my students with it. (Yes you can still get a seat, I think there are a few left - www.calligraphybymoya.com.au/workshops or just click the link in my bio) . #magpie #shineonyoucrazydiamond #asmr #calligraphy #calligraphynerd #glitterislife #winsorandnewton #shine #calligraphyclasses #calligraphybrisbane #brisbane #brisbanecalligraphy #learncalligraphy #calligraphylove #oddlysatisfying #operarose #moyagraphy https://www.instagram.com/p/BxPZRMmhYYz/?igshid=1xd4sna187gr6

A custom commission for a special lady. I love when you guys email me with your ideas, and hearing the stories behind them makes my heart melt! Because of these stories, I threw her in a surprise set of coasters! 🤐 Any piece on my Etsy can be customized, just DM me and something can always be figured out or for those of you that use my Email that is perfectly fine too. . . . . #acrylicpainting #calligraphy #calligraphyart #moderncalligraphy #moderntypography #calligrafriends #calligraphynerd #lettering #handlettering #handmade #handmadeisbetter #handmadewithlove #handcrafted #custommade #personalizedgifts #etsyforall #etsyusa #etsyshop #etsyseller #wisconsin #etsywisconsin #calligraphydesign (at Bay View, Milwaukee)

I know I already posted this one on Facebook ... and stories ... but I’m tired and I just saw it again and it made me laugh. If you can’t make vaguely dirty jokes about calligraphy, what’s even the point? 😅😅 . #weirdflexbutok #melbourne #calligraphyclasses #calligraphylife #calligraphynerd #lovemyjob https://www.instagram.com/p/BxzbCRjFzuh/?igshid=3l2rh8kr2f53

On my desk this afternoon: prepping some elements for this weekend’s Christmas Flourish workshop. We’ll be combining these into wreaths and making sweet little cards. No experience needed - you don’t even have to be a calligrapher! Your kits will include everything you need - paints, brushes, #moblique, nibs, cards - and I’ll even bring snacks. 😂 . If you do want to add lettering to the cards there are a few spots left in the morning’s beginner class too - and if you come to both classes, or if you bring a friend, you can use discount code MORETHEMERRIER for 15% off. 🎄💪❤️ . #melbourne #calligraphy #calligraphyclasses #flourishing #aussiechristmas #christmascrafts #learncalligraphy #calligraphynerd #melbournecalligraphy #artclass #artworkshops #calligraphyworkshops #cardmaking #embellishment #lovemyjob https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq6dPTsFidn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=191si8ho6ewts

No spoilers ... but I’m really really excited about teaching this next pointed pen skill workshop. It’s not been announced yet, but it’ll be on 8 December, right after the beginner copperplate class. 😂😂 Sneak peek! Full details tonight for my mailing list, tomorrow for the rest of the world 😉 . How good is that deliberate slow scratchy though 😍😍😍 . . #asmr #oddlysatisfying #calligraphy #calligraphynerd #calligraphycloseup #calligraphylove #lovemyjob #finetec #mobliquebyluiscreations #colirocolors #christmasflourishing #satisfying #calligraphyskills #levelup #aussiechristmas https://www.instagram.com/p/BqgU4O8lVsn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=54zqen2y2rh3

Fave nib. I know it’s finicky. I know every third one seems to be dodgy these days. I know it’s not popular. It’s even kind of ugly - no elegant waist like the Blanzy 2552, no pretty curves. But baby, when it’s good, it’s sooooo good. #gillott303life . . . #gillott303 #calligraphy #calligraphylove #calligraphynerd #finetec #melbourne #lovemyjob #✍🏻😼 https://www.instagram.com/p/BqesKFPF7Rc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15roi61ijix58

Sometimes simple black on white is the height of elegance. Okay ... often. (But you guys know I love me some bling!) . This is a reject placecard from a dinner event at @ngvmelbourne last night - the fold isn’t perfect, so it didn’t pass muster. I know these details are tiny but they’re important! . #melbournecalligraphy #melbourne #calligraphy #calligraphynerd #lovemyjob #placecards #eventplanning #eventstationery #calligrapher #moyagraphy #handwrittenlove https://www.instagram.com/p/BpBPo7xAO-Z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=r20n0a4xbyii
