Stumbled upon the first promotional material I created for the lettering seminar, that we host every summer in my studio in Berlin. This year will be the 4th edition and the registration will open very soon. ⠀ ⠀ In case you don’t know about it, every year we host a 3 days seminar. In this sessions, attendees create their own lettering piece form has sketch to final digital artwork. Hands-on sessions are combined with on-site demonstrations, on-spot critiques, short informal lectures and Q&A. I’m there full time to provide technical and theoretical support, as well as answer questions about the letter design practice as well. Since last year, our guest instructor @eliasjprado also takes part, giving extra expert support on everyone’s digital drawing. ⠀ ⠀ Places are limited and, as a wrap up, we host an open studio, where other designers and artists are invited to come. All of this taking place in Berlin during summertime 🥰. It’s a wonderful experience all in all! ⠀ ⠀ Stay tuned, we are opening registrations very soon! #martinaflorteaching #mfworkshops #stunningtypography #love #letteringworkshop #letteringseminar (at Studio Martina Flor) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7QUIu1K-20/?igshid=ns0qh15k6ctp

The first workshop I offered was for free. I was new to the country (Germany, where I currently live), I had no network and also no one really knew me. I was positive that I could teach lettering, but I hadn’t done this before. My line of thought was straight forward: ⠀ 1. If no one had to pay for it, no one would complain if the workshop was bad.⠀ 2. This will give me better chances to have the workshop booked out, and try myself at teaching lettering.⠀ ⠀ Workshop was successful and attendees were happy. For the first time I felt something that is what today keeps me teaching, and organizing my own workshops in and outside Berlin: I felt that everyone were leaving the room with a certain level of enlightening. Through this experience, they could see things that they couldn’t see before when working with typography, and they could use that for their creative work. Some of them, even left the room inspired and motivated!⠀ ⠀ Now, these feedback is still what keeps me teaching, plus the fact that many of you keep showing to the world the things you’ve created after attending one of my workshops, taking one of my online classes, or reading my books. This makes the world to me, and is the motivation behind what I currently do, and the plans I have for the future. ⠀ ⠀ I teach online and offline, two very different experiences for both, the student and the teacher. Everything you’ll find on martinaflor.com/teaching. The studio is planning a lot more stuff for next year, so keep in touch! #mfworkshops #teachinglettering #letteringworkshops (at Studio Martina Flor) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4Az1iVqJZO/?igshid=8g7g0p6pyjg3

Last Sunday I hosted the last workshop of the year at my studio in Berlin. This year, we organized 4 public workshops, our usual summer lettering seminar, an open studio, and 10 in-house workshops for universities and agencies in and outside Berlin. We also welcomed students studio visits. We welcomed attendees around the globe: Costa Rica, USA, UK, Italy, Belgium, Slovakia, Spain, Poland, Switzerland, Argentina, Mexico, Chile, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, France, Germany and Sweden. Thank you so much to each one of you for coming!⠀ ⠀ For next year, we are planning all of this PLUS a business seminar for creatives and an extended program on letter design, both so exciting and one-of-a-kind that you won’t wanna miss them. ⠀ ⠀ I usually announce every new workshop and seminar across my social networks, but e-mail is really the best way of not missing out on anything.

If you come to one of my workshop you’ll see me drawing the name of the city we are in. ⠀ ⠀ These are drawings I’ve done to demonstrate sketching techniques at my workshops throughout last year. Say hi if you attended one of them 👋🏼 #mfworkshops (at Studio Martina Flor)
