- It’s not an expensive course, in fact, there’s no course material at all
- It’s not a community where everyone comes together every day to share what they’re having for lunch, or for you to feel ‘behind’ in
- And, it’s not a ‘do what I say’ step-by-step guide to becoming a successful artist (because the landscape that worked for me has already changed and moved on, and therefore so must we)
What is it then?
- A monthly hour (sometimes we overun) for Artists to meet online over Zoom to talk Shop together
- A place to pick my brains and sometimes other’s in the group,to ask direct questions, and to get a personal response from me
- Insights into my work practice, my mistakes and experiences with a monthly post about a relevant topic
- A place to be held accountable, I keep a record of your ‘ToDo’ list for the next month and encourage you to take small actions towards your business goals every month
- A quiet space, away from all the noise on the internet with common sense, encouragement and mentoring thrown in.
"Coming together is the beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success" Henry Ford
I have found that my greatest successes have been after stumbles and mistakes, where I’ve continued to create, to go off on a tangent, and to make slow, incremental steps forward.
Being able to talk this over with others and to ask for advice along the way has been invaluable
I have no fast track hacks to share and I, like you, work on my own for the majority of my time. By creating this space where we can come together, share and work together I hope to help you reach the peak of your own Mountain and share in the fun, laughter, tears and great conversations along the way.
