About Live Event & Brand Activation Artistry
What I Do
I’m Lipika, and honestly, live event artistry is my happy place. I set up at events and turn ordinary gifts into something special right in front of your guests. Whether it’s a wedding, a brand activation, or a big corporate party, I bring a personal touch that people remember.
How I Add the Magic
- I do on-site engraving services - think names or monograms etched on perfume bottles, whiskey glasses, even lipstick tubes. Guests always go, “Wah, that’s for me?” when they see it.
- My personalised calligraphy keepsakes are my OG move. I use brush pens or dip pens to handwrite names on stuff like event cards, certificates, and wedding favors.
- Hot foiling is for those who want a bit of bling. Metallic initials on diaries or gifts – looks super classy for corporate dos.
Events & Brands
Worked with brands like Jo Malone, Google India, LinkedIn, Chivas Regal, Victoria’s Secret, and more. Whether it’s 30 people or 300, I can handle it, and for really big events, my co-calligraphers join in.
What You Get
I’m Bangalore-based but I travel all over. My goal is to make sure guests go home with something unique and that feeling of “marakkuma nenjam” (my heart won’t forget). Your event doesn’t just get a souvenir, it gets a memory.

My Story
Five years in, and Quill on Paper still feels like a wild ride! Started clueless at 24, now I’m juggling artist, designer, accountant - you name it. Calligraphy didn’t just happen to me, it kinda chose me. Every day’s a mix of gratitude, hustle, and a bit of chaos. Over 300 clients, 35 brands, lots of magic. Thanks for letting me scribble my way into your memories since 2020.
