Hi, I’m Alina - Calligraphy Artist & Creative Business Mentor
Have you ever wondered how a simple pen can transform your day? I’m Alina, a full‑time calligraphy artist on the South Coast of the UK, and I’ve been practising this craft for over a decade. Back in twenty fifteen, calligraphy found me at a time of severe anxiety and became my sanctuary - a peaceful ritual that helped me switch off and centre my mind.
Years of exploring different styles, refining technique, and embracing creative play eventually led me to share this art with others. Today, I teach students not only how to build confidence and calm through calligraphy, but also how to turn their passion into a purposeful business - whether you're just starting out or looking to grow.
If you're ready to develop your skills, explore your creative voice, or build something meaningful from your love of lettering, you're in the right place.

I've taught hundreds of in-person workshops in East Sussex and London since 2019 and expanded my classes to online teaching in the past couple of years. It's been a wonderful journey meeting and connecting with so many calligraphy newbies and watching them fall in love with lettering.
I feel very passionate about creating content and resources to help you learn and keep the practice going.
I'm a true believer that ANYONE can learn lettering, and I'm here to help you navigate this journey by sharing plenty of tips, tricks, resources, and inspiration I’ve gathered over the past 9 years.
