One-on-One Coaching & Creative Mentorship
Refine your skills. Push past creative blocks. Reconnect with your art.
Every artist hits a wall. A piece that won't resolve. A technique that stays just out of reach. A medium switch that's fighting you harder than it should. More trial and error isn't going to fix that. Neither is another YouTube video. What helps is having someone look at the actual work in front of you, ask the right questions, and help you figure out what's happening.
That's what these sessions are for. I've been teaching artists for over 20 years, from beginners to working professionals. My goal isn't to take over your piece; it's to help you see it clearly so you can solve it yourself.
What we focus on together:
Guidance, Not Formulas: I'll help you look at your art to figure out what's working and what isn't, so you build your own problem-solving eye.
Real Technical Solutions: Straight, practical answers on technique, material usage, and which studio tools are actually worth the investment.
Protecting Your Vision: Your voice stays yours. I'm here to help you master the craft while deepening your direction or uncovering your vision if you're still searching for it.
Each session includes a pre-session review of your work and personalized follow-up notes after each session.

“How do you adequately describe an experience that is completely transforming? I subscribed to a mentorship with Andrea knowing her own talent and her inspiring work, I didn't expect her kindness or her gift as a teacher. I certainly didn't expect how much she respected and helped me develop my own vision. Literally, the best money I have every spent on my art. Thank you Andrea!”

“Having never tried mentorship before, I really had no idea what to expect so I purchased the single session. The minute that session was over, I purchased the 4 session package. The part I really struggle with as it turns out is the painting. I come from a traditional oil painting background so I thought it should be easy to switch to acrylic. Ha! It wasn't. Andrea's technical knowledge of all of the media - oil paint to acrylic made it so easy for me to understand where my problems were. She is genuinely one of the nicest people you will ever meet and a great teacher. You will never regret any time you get to spend learning from her.”

“As a working artist, new to collage, I wanted to learn from the best and make the most of one-on-one time with a true professional. I cannot give higher praise to Andrea for making every moment of our sessions count! She had the intuitive experience of working with others to know exactly where I was and what I needed, and the depth of recall not to encumber our work together with unnecessary backfill regarding a process or creative experiment. She was always encouraging and honest. I deeply appreciated the critiques with her as they were guided by her decades-long knowledge of design principles, artistic concepts, art history, and an mastery of the materials. If there was something problematic, she pointed it out alongside a solution or two!! I appreciate this honesty and have only found it in the best teachers! I truly believe Andrea could mentor ANYONE, and that that mentorship would result in a students creative growth, understanding of the collage process, flexibility in thinking about "problems" and their solutions, grounding a student in a bit of art history (it is OUR history!), and the courage and inspiration to just go make stuff! Andrea has the perfect combination of knowledge and magic that it takes to travel between the cut-loose world of creativity and the analytical mind. As artists, we need both! Don't hesitate to sign up for a coaching session!. I promise, you won't regret it and will emerge a better artist for it.”
