SHINE!
I’m here to help you clarify, edit and create your artistic presence so that you can put your best foot forward. Let’s get you ready to shine.
I can be there for you a little or a lot. I can work with you to connect all aspects of your artist life, the artwork, the statements/bios, the website & social media component, setting goals, and through it all add some accountability. I can meet you right where you are, no matter if you’re a seasoned artist that needs a little re-energizing or an artist that has just started out.
Let’s start here…
Are you feeling a bit lost in your studio practice? Are you doing the work but not sure of the direction? Do you need some outside insight, perspective and encouragement?
Let’s do it together! I will work with you one on one to find some clarity.
Open your studio to me (virtually) by uploading 5-10 images of your work, answer some questions via an online form, and grab your calendar and schedule some time for a one on one video call.
By the time we finish our one on one, you will have some concrete steps to take back to your studio and a clearer vision for what you’d like to work towards.
I’ll follow up in 6 weeks via email to see how you’re doing.
OR
Do you have a body of work? Are you ready to share it with the world? Do you want to apply to online calls for work? Do you want to submit to shows?
Great let’s get that artist statement and bio just as ready. I can help you craft a clear and concise artist statement as well as get your bio polished up. If you’re starting from scratch that’s fine too.
I will have you send me your current bio/artist statement if you have one. If not, then you will complete an online questionnaire.
I may follow up with an email, and then we can schedule a one on one video call to bring all of your ideas together and leave you with a document ready to accompany your art work and shine on your website.
I need a both of those…
No problem!
We can work on both the direction of your work through a portfolio review and a constructive critique
We will create or polishing up your artist/statement & bio.
We’ll have two one on one phone calls, or one long depending on how you work.
And I will follow up with you face to face virtually 6 weeks out.
I want to go big
Let’s do it!! I will offer feed back on your work, and we will have one-on-one video chat to dive deep.
We can clarify or create your artist statement and bio.
I will audit your website and social media/ or get you set started out with both platforms.
We will work together to set some goals for your art life, and create action items to move you closer to them.
You will have access to me via email for 4 weeks, and I’ll check in with you again at the 3 month mark.
