✨[free enrollment for limited time] If you’re like me when I started, you probably practice lettering and later throw everything away. Am I right? ⠀ ⠀ 📦 Or you have a box where you collect all of your sketches.⠀ ⠀ 💻 If you work digitally with your iPad or your computer, you add any random name to your files and throw them into a folder called “untitled”. Or even worse—you save them all on your desktop 🤢... ⠀ ⠀ I was there too! 🙋🏻‍♀️ ⠀ Moreover, I wouldn’t show my work to anybody of course, because it was such a mess! 🤦🏻‍♀️⠀ ⠀ 📆 TODAY is the first day of the rest of your life as an artist and it starts with this mini course that I prepared for you called “The Tidy Artist” [important notice: I’m providing free access for a limited time]⠀ ⠀ In this course, you’ll sneak in my studio while I share with you my methods to keep things organised: sketches, physical copies of my work and digital files.⠀ ⠀ With this course you’ll learn:⠀ ⠀ ➡️ How to document and organize your work.⠀ ➡️ How to set up your workspace for success.⠀ ➡️ How to keep track of your progress as a lettering artist.⠀ ⠀ I’ve included:⠀ ✔️ four actionable video lessons to get you going with organizing your work.⠀ ✔️ Templates to document your sketches and drawings.⠀ ✔️ A system to keep your digital work organized.⠀ ✔️ An e-mail template to kindly request physical copies of your work to clients.⠀ Go to http://www.martinaflor.com/thetidyartist to get in! ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #thetidyartist #workspace #organizeyourwork #lettering #handlettering #letteringartist #artistsucess #minicourse #freetraining (at Studio Martina Flor) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMkBxjSjnmS/?igshid=9wyqvsgkck6b

F for FABULOUS! A year ago I was starting my own online academy, full of expectation and truly nervous! One year forward, we have welcomed over 1000 students and helped them take their the craft to a new level and thrive in their creative business. 2020 was truly intense and with the students we achieved more than we imagined. I’m certain that 2021 will top that. Today, I’m launching a new site for the academy and cannot be more excited. Head to martinaflor.com/teaching to find out more! (Also link in my profile). Swipe to see a preview. This academy has enabled me to connect with many of you despite our location, and this fills my heart with joy! Thank you for being a part of it! ➡️Heads up, there’s a free course coming up soon and our infamous Lettering Crit, so make sure to sign up to the newsletter to find out first when it’s out.

If you own a copy of my book (in any language) I have something for you ❤️ To be honest, when I wrote this book I knew that it was a good one (swipe to see the first draft of the book). This certainty is what kept me motivated along the way (kept me writing even during the first months of life of my son, swipe to see me in action!). That motivation got me through the huge undertaking of writing, designing, and illustrating a book. However, it wasn't until I saw the book hitting the shelves and experienced the reaction of the readers that I understood the magnitude of what I had done. The book was published in 6 languages, sold by ten-thousands of copies, and has impacted the work of many artists around the globe. It's often referred to as “the bible of lettering” and all the love that I received from the readers is bonkers. Perhaps the biggest accomplishment that I had in my career as a lettering artist and educator! ✨✨Today, I'm giving back some of that love to the readers by providing FREE bonuses to complement the content of the book✨✨✨ Go grab the bonuses on www.thegoldensecretsoflettering.com or follow the link in my profile. If you read the book let me know below: what was your biggest take away? What did you learn? #goldensecretsoflettering #learnlettering #letteringbook #lettering #handlettering #letteringartist #martinaflor #martinafloracademy #typography #bookaboutlettering #artistbook #learnlettering (at Studio Martina Flor) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMUxLBmj30c/?igshid=10byabwuob19b

#8m As a woman, artist, business owner and leader these are five things I do to take action for equality 👇🏼 1️⃣I intentionally named my business over my name so that everyone knows that there’s a women leading. 2️⃣I empower every member of my team regardless of their gender to own their work and lead by example. 3️⃣I do my best to lead by example by sharing my story and struggles openly so that other women can feel inspired and know that they are not alone in their journey. 4️⃣As a lettering artist that works primarily illustrating texts, I’m selective of the texts I support with my work, and make sure they are not discriminatory or diminishing against women, any race, religion or gender. 5️⃣With my business and with the academy we financially support girls in vulnerable countries so that they don’t drop out of school, keep on developing, and through that take control over their future. I #choosetochallenge everything I learned and that is in my hands to change the scenario of gender inequality. And despite I’m proud of contributing to move the needle through these actions, I know that the hardest work needs to be done within me and the bias I grew into. 👉🏼What about you? What are the things you do (no matter how small) to take action for equality? #womensday #womensday2021 #8march2021 #bosslady #womeninpower #womenleader #businessowner #women #womenempowerment #womenpower #womenofillustration #womensday (at Studio Martina Flor) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMKKSTnjQhw/?igshid=1fhowpscatbu4

Showcasing the process of creating this book cover for @penguinrandomhouse from sketches to final artwork. Ad: Rosie Palmer ➡️The Briefing “The book is set in 1780s Georgian London. Please reference this and set the title around a smaller icon such as a shell. There could be some twiddly bits around the edge too like ribbon as that is mentioned in the book.” 📚My research Collected graphical material from Georgian Era (1714 to c. 1830-37). ✍🏼Sketches Created two sketches, but put one forward. Client approved on my proposal. 🎨Made my first digital drawing ✅ and voilà, final delivered Artist happy about the result, client happy too! #lettering #handlettering #bookcover #coverlettering #artwork #creativeprocess #behindthescenes #mermaidandhancock #penguinrandomhouse #martinaflor (at Studio Martina Flor) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMAF-AEDcZY/?igshid=3xjxw640ezc0
