Establish a 6-week daily art practice and create a series of works with an accountability coach. We will end the series with an exhibition opening and a virtual gallery show of your work. You will be guided each week in the steps to goal setting, series synthesis, time management, handling challenges, chronicling insights, and celebrating successes. All media artists welcome. Just show up! Your accountability coach will inspire the discipline to create 6 to 40 drawings or paintings! Working in a series has many benefits. It is a tool to process an event, emotion, and even relationships. If you do anything for 40 days it will change your life!
Date: 7:00 – 8:00 pm; Tuesdays, June 15, 22, 29, July 6, 13, and 20
Location: Virtual Event
Price: $100 members; $115 non-members

Materials Needed: We will discuss this in the first session. A journal or sketchbook would be good for taking notes. You will need to get your art own supplies for whatever you plan to be doing- could be drawing in a sketchbook, or painting 40 mini canvasses. Only limited by your imagination
