When An Art Coach Can Make All The Difference
I’m here and ready to help you realize your dreams - by Skype, Facetime, Zoom or in-person.
Why it might be time to get the help of an art coach!
You’ve been longing to start an art practice for years, and you can’t put it off any longer. Your soul is calling! You simply must begin - but how?
You often feel alone on your path as an artist and wish there was someone you could trust to help you realize your dreams?
You want a guide that can address your specific needs - whether it’s about finding your authentic voice, learning new techniques, telling your story through marketing, or getting critical feedback to grow your work.
You’re feeling stale in your current work, and need a push to go beyond your comfort zone, trying new approaches,
You need direction on creating a visually compelling website that truly expresses your vision and makes you stand out.
You’re ready to show your work in galleries or other venues but don’t know what it takes or how to approach them?
You feel shy about putting yourself out there and feel overwhelmed by art marketing and social media.
You want to share your experience by creating an online course, a blog, or write an eBook, while earning passive income through your website.
You are ready to sell your work on your website, bypassing the middle man and having control over your outreach.
You have been dreaming of doing an artist residency somewhere in the world and you are ready to apply but don’t know the first thing about it.
Who am I and how can I help?
I’ve been a professional artist, an art coach and a teacher for 25 years. I’ve exhibited in countless galleries and venues internationally and been an artist in residence in over 15 countries and counting, including Turkey, Iceland, Mexico and India.
As a coach, I work with individuals to craft a plan for growing their work and realizing their vision. One of my greatest thrills is to help other artists find their groove and put their work out in the world authentically.
So many of the skills I’ve learned over the years have taken me months and even years to learn, through trial and error, taking physical and online courses, and doing things the hard way!
As an art coach, I can shortcut the process and offer simple steps that are co-created to address your specific needs.
We will come up with a master plan to kickstart the next level for you and your work. I will be your personal guide, answering all your questions whether it’s about art techniques, marketing, travel, or the business side of art.
I can show you techniques, and create strategies for updating and making your work fresh.

"Looking back through time when I was in grade school and then out in the world learning - I realize I have not had a mentor - someone whom I respect through their work, teaching, and the way they live their life to be called as such. I can now say I have my mentor and it’s you! So thank you - I wanted to experience this in my lifetime!” Kari Garen

"I just completed a private lesson with Amy. I wanted a one-on-one session so I could get all my questions answered as we went along. Amy let me customize the class to focus on those skills I was most interested in learning and I loved it! Amy is a kind and supportive teacher and a session with her made me feel prepared to experiment and capture a wee bit of her magic!" Rosemary Carstens
