What you will learn in this mentorship

• In this mentorship group, we will learn how to choose the best media, compositions, and style for our personal stories, interests, and ideas. Using joyful experimentation, specific techniques, and a variety of materials (guided by the interest of the group members), our sessions will often include critiques, lively discussions, and mentor demonstrations.
• We will balance the playful technique experimentation with big picture topics such as the value of looking closely at the world by making and viewing art, how art can tap into powerful human experiences and connections, and how the emotional resonance of a piece of art can draw viewers to your work.

Mentorship Focus

1. How to use your inner voice to elevate your art instead of blocking it
2. How to work in a playful, experimental, confident, joyful mindset
3. Technical drawing and painting skills
4. How to best choose materials to represent your artistic vision
5. How to identify artistic choices holding you back
