Coaching For Emerging Artists

 

I help artists not just in making — but in managing the real-world demands of a creative life. I coach and mentor emerging artists to find clarity, build confidence, and take their next steps. I understand the difference it makes receiving genuine support and making encouraging, warm connections with other artists and industry professionals.

I moved to Newcastle from Melbourne 8 years ago to dedicate myself to my art career in this amazing, art filled city. I discovered a gap in the community for emerging artists. I dedicated myself to learning how to build my career while being new in town, emerging as an artist, and seeking community. Voila! The New Artists Collective was born, now at over 130 members and growing!

I provide support with:

  • Group shows

  • Prizes

  • Working with galleries

  • Pricing

  • Statements & Bios

  • Promotion

  • Mind Set

  • Community

Initial Consultation

A foundational 60-minute studio visit to explore your creative goals and direction.

This in-person consultation takes place in your studio or creative space, where we’ll explore your work, your current position, and your vision for the future. You’ll walk me through your practice, and I’ll get a clear sense of where you are, where you want to go, and how best to support you.

It’s also a chance to see if we’re a good fit to work together going forward. You’ll receive professional insights, new perspectives, and a clear sense of the next steps.
