Barb Skoog: About the critique & the drive from Los Angeles - ELEVATE: Artist Mentorship *Limrite*

http://davidlimrite.com/elevate Artist | Teacher | Mentor | Coach Creating a cohesive series requires so much more than just putting brush to canvas or pencil to paper. Among other things, it requires intention, focus, purpose and clarity. A good coach and mentor can be an invaluable partner to artists in this process. In addition to actually creating the work (which is no small task), artist’s mind management is an essential component of creativity. This involves managing self-doubt, fear, procrastination, distractions and indecision. I have also found that many artists benefit from additional support with perseverance, confidence, motivation, courage and self-esteem. This can be difficult to manage on your own. A good coach and mentor can help artists navigate through the mental perils as well as the creative process en route to their true creative purpose. As the coach/mentor of ELEVATE, I will offer ideas, suggestions, support and guidance to help empower and motivate artists toward inspired action and increased productivity. DESCRIPTION A mentorship program for an intimate group of artists who are serious about taking their art to a much higher level and who want to create a strong, cohesive and aesthetic body of work. Learn to create work that is meaningful to you with courage, passion, clarity, purpose and inspired action. The main focus will be to have you launch right into creating your series and assisting you in forging a new relationship with your art. Module One Explore and define what a body of work is, and choose your topic, subject, idea or concept Module Two Discover and learn what your process is Module Three Refine and develop your body of work Module Four Final critique and suggestions for further study, development and direction WHAT’S INCLUDED Three months of Artist Mentorship which includes: Four in-person group meetings Six online group meetings (60 minutes each) The meetings will be recorded and available for review Private Facebook Group to facilitate group discussion, learning and sharing BENEFITS OF THE PROGRAM Receive critique and feedback about your creative process Become more self-directed and focused Communicate your vision with depth and clarity Create a cohesive body of work on a single theme/idea/concept/subject matter Establish goals such as: how many pieces, size, theme/idea/subject, media, surface, color palette, style Accelerate your growth and momentum Experience a concentrated period of time working on a series of cohesive pieces Receive support and enjoy the camaraderie of working with a group of like-minded artists BENEFITS OF THE ONLINE MEETINGS These online meetings are an essential and invaluable component of this intense program. Further, many of the participants will have similar concerns, and sometimes it is easier to learn by observing someone else in the same situation.

I have now begun a series which has taken me to creating without a model and to more emotional content. It was freeing to get away from drawing from the model and [begin] drawing from my imagination." “THIS IS A BIG IMPROVEMENT FOR ME IN CONFIDENCE, MINDSET, AND HOW I CREATE.” — CYNTHIA ALEXANDER "The Elevate process brought into focus for me some choices I need to make about where to go next in my work, particularly if I want to work in series. ...I liked seeing ongoing work posted online." “ALL OF THESE IMPROVED: HABITS, MINDSET, CONFIDENCE, PRODUCTIVITY, HOW I SEE MYSELF, AND SETTING BOUNDARIES SO THAT I PROTECT THE TIME I NEED TO WORK.” — TAMARA GREENEBAUM
