About me

Hi, I’m Aiyana. Nice to meet you!

I’m half Filipina and half German.

I love many forms of art - painting, tattoos, journaling, and of course calligraphy. I never thought of myself as a creative person until I learned how to do calligraphy and found that I was actually pretty good at a lot of art stuff - and loved creating.

I also love video games, cars, philosophy, and travel. If you want to chat about anything, feel free to message me on Instagram or my contact form.

Part time, I work at a boba shop because I enjoy making drinks. My favorite is a jasmine milk tea with tapioca, 25% sweet.

Did you know that I have reptiles? Yep! Some people think that’s weird and that’s ok. I have a bearded dragon, 4 garter snakes, and a Mexican Black Kingsnake (appropriately named Boba).

THE STORY BEHIND LUNAR INK

I taught myself how to do calligraphy in 2018, primarily as a way to decorate my journal and make cards.

I later discovered someone in my area on Instagram that did calligraphy for weddings - my mind was blown! I didn’t even know I could make money from something like this.

In December of 2021, Lunar Ink was born. It started out with signage for businesses & home decor. Then, I learned about the world of engraving and live events. I fell in love and that’s been my focus since!
