This program is designed for painters who have moved beyond the basics but feel stuck at their current level. You're ready if you:

Can mix colors and understand basic color theory

Have completed at least 10-15 oil paintings

Feel frustrated that your work looks "competent" but lacks that professional quality

Are ready to push beyond your comfort zone and take creative risks

Want personalized guidance rather than generic instruction

If you're still learning fundamental techniques like how to hold a brush or basic color mixing, you may benefit more from foundational courses first. This mentorship is about elevating existing skills, not teaching basics.

The key difference is personalization and ongoing relationship. Online courses teach everyone the same techniques, but every artist has different strengths, challenges, and artistic goals.

In our mentorship:

Sessions are tailored specifically to your work and artistic vision

We address your individual creative blocks and technical challenges

You receive ongoing feedback and guidance between sessions

We work together over time to develop your unique artistic voice

You have direct access to ask questions and get clarification

Think of it as the difference between reading a general fitness book versus having a personal trainer who designs workouts specifically for your body and goals.

The entire mentorship program is conducted online, making it accessible to artists worldwide. Here's how our sessions work:

During Sessions:

We meet via video call at our scheduled time

You can share your work through high-quality photos or paint live during our session

I demonstrate techniques on camera and share visual examples on screen

We can review your paintings together and I'll provide real-time feedback

You can ask questions and get immediate clarification

Between Sessions:

Send photos of your work in progress for ongoing feedback

Access to email support for quick questions

I may provide follow-up resources or exercises based on our discussion

Technical Requirements:

Stable internet connection

Device with camera capability (computer, tablet, or phone)

Ability to photograph your work clearly

Basic familiarity with video calling (Zoom, etc.)

This online format actually allows for more flexibility in scheduling and eliminates travel time, so we can focus entirely on your artistic development.

Most artists notice meaningful shifts in their work within the first 2-3 sessions, but the timeline varies based on your starting point and how actively you implement what we discuss.

Typical progression:

First month: Breakthrough moments in color relationships and composition awareness

Months 2-3: Noticeable improvement in painting quality and confidence

Months 4-6: Development of personal style and more sophisticated techniques

6+ months: Significant artistic evolution and professional-level improvements

Remember, artistic growth isn't always linear. Sometimes you'll have breakthrough sessions, and sometimes you'll be integrating and practicing. The key is consistent engagement with the process and willingness to push beyond your current comfort zone.

The artists who see the fastest improvement are those who paint regularly between sessions and actively implement the guidance we discuss.

I'm confident in the value this mentorship provides, but I understand it's an investment. Here's my commitment to you:

30-Day Trial Period: If after your first month you don't feel the mentorship is significantly impacting your artistic development, I'll refund your first month's payment, no questions asked.

What I expect from you: Come to sessions prepared, be open to feedback and trying new approaches, and paint regularly between our meetings. Artistic growth requires active participation.

What you can expect from me: Personalized attention, honest feedback that helps you grow, techniques and insights you won't find in books or videos, and genuine investment in your artistic development.

The artists who get the most from this mentorship are those ready to be challenged and excited about pushing their artistic boundaries. If that's you, I'm confident you'll see meaningful improvement in your work.
