I'm a fountain pen enthusiast from the Philippines. I work in IT and always found myself looking for creative outlets.
I'm particularly in awe of nature and try to capture the feeling first through photography, then watercolors, and now fountain pen and ink. I’ve found my sanctuary in playing with ink and painting dainty botanicals. I'm an advocate of journaling and sketching for mental wellness. There is something meditative in exploring the nuances of fountain pen ink and I love learning new forms of self-expression.
Outside of fountain pens and painting, I like reading (Discworld series is a favorite), travelling, and spending time with family and friends (usually over good food).
Katlyn's Nest is derived from my children's names. I had meant it to encompass all my creative outlet and they are my inspiration. Aside from fountain pens and sketching, I like decorating for small events, creating costumes for my kids, and trying out new crafts like pottery and leather craft.
