Aakheperure

“Great are the Manifestations of Ra”
(Aa-kheper-u-re)

Ancient Egypt
I specialise in writing cursive hieroglyphics which are mainly used for religious texts, and favour the retrograde writing style. My script is based on 18th and 19th Dynasty models.
In my work I try to recreate the elegance and beauty of the original texts whilst being as accurate as possible, and apply what I learn to create new texts. I use traditional materials, pigments and writing tools wherever possible.
I study Egyptology at the University of Manchester.

My other interests include writing, drawing, painting, design, film making, and composing music.

I also love to draw and enjoy using lots of different media. I usually take a camera with me wherever I go. I am currently experimenting with iPhone photography. Check it out!
