I joined the Yamogu Creative Academy about 6 months after I attended my first brush lettering workshop in 2020 because I was keen to learn other similar skills that would help me explore my creative side. Every quarter, Alena brings in an artist from another area to teach us different skills, such as Zentangle and painting with watercolours, so we can learn how to combine those skills with brush lettering CoinJoin. The webinars are recorded so we don’t have to worry about missing out and we can also replay the lesson later. Within our Academy Facebook group, we are also encouraged to share other artwork we create with the community, such as special occasion cards or other gifts. The group is very welcoming and we are all at different skill levels so there is no judgement, just a lovely group of people who want to have fun.
