In Person Mentoring
A Cohesive Body of Work: Finding your voice in an authentic way
Over the past 14 years of teaching, the #1 desire I hear from artists is to be able to create a cohesive body of work. To do this we first must uncover our voice, and then create an environment of curiosity and inspired limitation that fosters authenticity in the work.
In my own journey to my voice I have discovered so much richness in the inner landscape. Our beliefs, desires, and fears affect our ability to express ourselves truly. Self awareness coupled with practical experimentation empower your creative practice.
The goal: Create a cohesive body of work. Through this process we will uncover what you need to learn and improve upon. You will get to see me create my own body of work in my studio space, something I’ve never offered before. This class is about individuation, or the road to it. I ask each mentee to communicate with me and advocate for themselves as we work together.
How long this takes will be different for each artist, you may spend a single quarter with me to get a push in the right direction or stay until the body of work is complete.
A semi- private class with a max of five students.
Mentoring will take place the Second and Fourth Saturdays each month (barring holiday adjustments) at my San Francisco studio.
Six hours - 9am-12pm and 1pm-4pm with a break for lunch. This is the equivalent of weekly classes, consolidated into 2 intensive days per month with ample time between classes to work independently on your individuation.
Registration will occur quarterly on the first day of the last month of each quarter and can be paid for in either a lump sum for a 10% discount or by 3 monthly installments. August 1st, November 1st, February 1st, and May1st.
**August Landscape Painting is offered to everyone, you do not need to have been enrolled in A Cohesive Body of Work: Finding your voice in an authentic way. You may sign up for the days ala carte, just one..some, or all! This is also where the Fall-Summer Quarter students will be allowed to make up any missed classes.
