1 on 1 Art mentorship – Tailored to your artistic needs (Seats are limited!)

 

Here’s what you can expect

This isn’t a one-size-fits-all class. The art mentorship is custom-tailored to your goals, style, and pace.

Together, we’ll cover what matters most to you:

      • Art fundamentals (Color & Light, Perspective, Sketching, Composition, Design, Painting Techniques etc.)

      • Concept art and visual development for games and animation

      • Background painting for animation and comics

      • Portfolio building to apply to studios

    Why it’s different

    You won’t just follow a curriculum, you’ll have an actual professional by your side, offering real, honest feedback and advice (including the behind-the-scenes business side that no one talks about).

     

    You’ll also join a small, welcoming community of fellow artists, because support and connection matter.And yes, all the resources: videos, paintovers, brushes, files; are yours to keep forever.

    Don’t just take my word for it. Here is what some past students had to say!

    A wide panel split diagonally: on the left (“Before”) a muted, forested scene with a spiral-patterned creature and soft pink butterfly; on the right (“After”) a bright, rolling landscape with turquoise waterways, flowering bushes, and a red fox overlooking the vista. Below, the name “ANDREA” appears above two blocks of text praising the mentorship’s impact on background skills, color and composition understanding, and professional approach.
    A wide panel split diagonally: on the left (“Before”) a dark, moody environment of crumbling wooden platforms over a chasm; on the right (“After”) a sunlit castle façade framed by lush green trees and a golden sky. Beneath it, “DANIELE” heads a two-paragraph quote highlighting insightful composition, color and perspective tips, practical feedback on portfolio progress, and newfound confidence after nine lessons.
    A wide panel split diagonally: on the left (“Before”) a stylized seaside scene with a lone rock formation against a vivid sky; on the right (“After”) a charming character in a forest glade with mushrooms, woodland creatures, and dappled sunlight. Below, “FLORINE” introduces a testimonial about learning industry practices, concise live paintovers, clear class format, and the supportive community of fellow artists.

    FAQ

    Q:How do payments and scheduling work?

    A:We accept payments through paypal and bank wire.

    Q:Is there a refund or satisfaction guarantee?

    Q:What materials or software will I need?

    A: Any digital drawing software is ok, photoshop is recommended.

    Q:How often will I meet with my mentor, and in what format (video, critique notes, etc.)?

    A: Meetings will be online through discord, 1 on 1, including critiques and lectures. We meet weekly but there is flexibility in schedule, if you need that extra time to complete the assignment you can just let me know!

    Q:Can I get a payment plan or split my fees into installments?

    A:Yes! You can pay half in advance and half midway through the program. Other options can be discussed if needed.

    Q:What kind of feedback and portfolio support will I receive?

    A: You will get paintovers on your assignments, with sometimes small demonstrations on how to approach certain techniques. You will also receive guidance in how to structure a professional looking portfolio, both in content and form.

    Q:Do you offer group workshops or just one-on-one sessions?

    A: This mentorship is 1 on 1 but I’m working on creating a cheaper group option. If you already have a couple interested friends and you would like to learn all-together please do reach out!

    Q:How do I know if this mentorship is right for my specific artistic goals?

    A: The core principle of this mentorship is that I change the plan and lesson based on what YOU want to learn! I also often review and update materials to provide the best teaching I possibly can.
