VISUAL VOICE​

​

I am an artist, educator, and creative coach, currently working with visual artists in one-on-one coaching sessions.

 

My aim is to help you at times of transition in your creative life.

If you answer "yes" to one or more of these questions, you'll find it helpful to work with me:

​​

• Looking to dive deep into an authentic body of work?

• Are you at a turning point in your art practice?

• Hoping to use new materials or techniques and not sure where to start?

• Are you having a hard time finding new ideas? Or have so many ideas that you're running in different directions?

• Struggling to get back into your art? Finding time?

• Currently in school but not receiving sufficient input? 

• Still processing your graduate school experience?

• Preparing for a residency or currently in a residency?

• Getting ready to go on sabbatical? 

 

In my late twenties I found myself in a painful artist block, which ultimately lasted for four years. I look back at those years and wish that I had someone to help me weave art back into my daily life. I have also had times of unexpected change in my artmaking—I have shifted my medium multiple times, the conceptual framework has expanded, and I have integrated daily experimentation into my art practice. These experiences, along with the wonderful impact of having a mentor from 2006 to 2019, inspired me to support artists with their creative lives.

​

I will provide individualized feedback on your artwork, while also helping you identify any stumbling blocks and barriers. All sessions are held on Zoom, an online meeting platform.​
