Sketching fashion has always been one of my favorite things, I have fond memories of pretty much drawing two things growing up: horses and pretty dresses 🤗🐴💃 ⠀ But it wasn’t until I discovered brush tip markers that I really came into my own and started developing my personal style. They really are magical and you’ll be amazed at the effects you can create 💫 ⠀ It’s one reason why I’m thrilled to open up registration TOMORROW for a Galentine’s Day Fashion Illustration Online Workshop 🎉 ⠀ If you’ve been wanting to give fashion illustration a go or have some brush tip markers already but don’t know how to use them, this 90 minute live online workshop is the perfect way to dip your toes into the world of fashion illustration. ⠀ The workshop will take place via Zoom on Saturday, February 13th at 1:00pm EST but I’ll be answering all your questions and going into much more detail when registration officially opens tomorrow, stay tuned! 💕✍️ ⠀ P.S. It’s the perfect social distance activity for you and your Galentines and there will be a way to gift enrollment to a friend 👯♀️ 
The illustration shop just got a very sweet update! 💕 ⠀ These fun Valentine’s stickers are making their debut today (I think the feather pen sticker is my favorite 💁♀️) along with all the most popular illustrations from the Favorite Things Calendar that have been into fine art prints 🙌 ⠀ I’ve also added two new art print bundles featuring the Floral Landmarks series and Favorite Things collections - they make beautiful gifts. 🎀 Bonus! There’s a discount when you buy the set 🥰 ⠀ See all the new shop updates by visiting https://shop.joanna-baker.com or clicking the first link in my bio ❤️ 
New week, fresh start. We went for a nice long walk yesterday which was a much needed reset. It was a bit chilly but worth it to see the garden, still full with color even in late January 🌿 Had to warm up with some hot tea afterwards though! ☕️ ⠀ Tomorrow, the Favorite Things calendar girls that you all voted for will be listed in the shop as fine art prints! I added a few more of my favorites (because it’s just so hard to choose) and they will be available in sizes 5x7, 8x10, and 11x14. 🖼 ⠀ If you’re craving some adventure for your walls, these beautiful art prints will definitely bring joy to your space. Launching at 2:00pm EST tomorrow on https://shop.joanna-baker.com along with a couple other fun things just in time for Valentine’s Day 💕 ⠀ Wishing you a lovely week ahead! 🤗
