Reading every bit good much marriage blogs inwards grooming for my cousin's marriage this June together with next artists on IG got me together with therefore addicted to calligraphy.
So far, I got a few stash inwards my box which I convey bought from dissimilar stores inwards Dubai. And gaad these are sooo difficult to find!
The primary materials are dip pen ready together with Republic of Republic of India ink. The residue are papers together with graph pad together with the residue are accessories. And skillful affair is that I never convey to invest on a lot of materials because final November, the sweetest people on world gave me a bunch of stuffs to play alongside (brushes together with acrylic paints) together with mortal also gave me a huge canvass where I tin terminate pour my pump out. Although calligraphy is means dissimilar from icon or drawing, the brushes helped together with therefore I tin terminate operate on the lines together with texture of whatever it is I am writing. So give thank you lot you lovies, much much appreciated!
Now where to teach these fine art stuff when inwards Dubai?
Bookworld Kinokuniya (Dubai Mall)
This is where I got my Dip Pen Set. The ready I bought includes a stud together with v dips of dissimilar sizes. It alone cost me less than AED 50. They convey some other ready which is to a greater extent than or less AED183 but it easily gets out of stock. I also bought greenish together with dark calligraphy ink hither for less than AED xxx each bottle. Bookworld Konikuya is located at Level2 of Dubai Mall close the Metrolink, caput left side together with therefore you lot tin terminate easily detect the stationary section.(c)Photo from Dubai Mall |
The Art Shop - DUCTAC (Mall Of The Emirates)
Most of the calligraphy materials available on this store are inks together with dips only, studs are e'er out of stock. I recommend pre-ordering because they pre-stock materials 1 time a twelvemonth every bit per the store attendant. Inks are priced at to a greater extent than or less AED 25 together with up. They convey gold, white, together with other colors. This is where I bought my calligraphy markers together with graph pad (most graph pads are difficult to detect inwards regular mass stores) every bit well.
The Art Shop is a fighting difficult to detect though. It is located at DUCTAC, 2d grade of Mall of the Emirates, the nearest province grade volition hold out Boutique One at the fashion dome. Turn correct downward the passageway betwixt Urban Male Lounge together with Michael Kors (marked ‘washrooms’) together with walk lead on yesteryear the washrooms together with through the drinking glass doors. Exit the mall edifice together with you lot volition encounter DUCTAC on your right.
Other Places
Search on Google together with you lot volition detect mass stores together with other fine art shops inwards Deira, Bur Dubai, together with fifty-fifty Jebel Ali. These places are far from where I'm staying together with and therefore I wasn't able to catch them. But I volition update you lot if I do!
And the residue of the ones I did are here. I'm even together with therefore working on my fonts together with therefore comport alongside me. Enjoy!
