ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Rachna Takawale
Calligrapher, Engraver & Fine Artist
I love adding a touch of calligraphy to everything I do through hand engraving and painting. My style is modern, whimsical and fresh, with a touch of timeless elegance. What I love about my work is that I get to play with different scripts and surfaces, which doesn't limit my work to just paper. I work with pretty much any surface from glass, acrylic, wood, leaves, metal, ceramics and more.
​
I am backed with an experience of 13 years (7 years in corporate job and 6 years running my own business). I believe in sharing my experience, my learnings without holding back. Learning is a journey and only through practise can you progress ahead.
​
I love everything about what I do. I consider myself blessed that I get to create something fun everyday with my hands.
