As an artist, you’re called to the canvas. You’re driven to create — and you love it. There’s just one thing… OK, two.

 

You’re not sure what you want to say every time you step to the canvas (or your chosen medium), and you’re not confident in your skills quite yet. 

 

While you’re called to create, the act of making your best art feels like everything is hanging in the balance. If you don’t get that color just right or this mark in the right place, everything falls apart.

What’s more, you know there are techniques that you could hone to really share your best work… but you don’t know what they are. 

 

You’re dedicated to your craft and you want to be proud of the art you make. Hell, it wouldn’t hurt if other people wanted to buy it, right?? 

 

If that’s you and you’re ready to create your best, most honest art yet, I have something for you…

THE HONEST ART BOOTCAMP

FEBRUARY 5TH - MARCH 11TH

Over the course of 6 weeks, we’ll work together to guide you through things like the key to finding your creative signature,  how to find your why, and how to use techniques that will take your art from “just fine” to “fine art.”

Because fine art isn’t for the lucky few who were “born with it.” We’ve all got it!! We just need the training.

Each week for six weeks, we’ll cover something new — like how to find your voice and let it guide you as your “true north.” Then, we’ll tie in what you learn about the internal work with a lesson on technique. Mondays will be for you to learn how to set yourself apart and Wednesdays will be for Art Critiques and Q&A.

From learning the fundamentals of fine art, applying that to your own mark-making & style, and my signature method of color mixing, you’ll learn everything you need to know to make your best, most honest art. 

No more looking to the outside world and shouting “Tell me if I’m any good." Nope. Not anymore. 

It's time to find YOUR style that sets you apart from the others. Because its the key to making and selling your very best art.

MEET YOUR HOST: JODIE KING

Heyyyy! I’m Jodie, professional artist and art educator. 

At the age of 35, I got a wild hair to grab a paintbrush — and I’ve been painting ever since. At the age of 50, I went through a major life event that shook me to my core… but getting a “real job” sounded like a terrible idea. Instead, I leaned into my art biz more than ever to help me build a whole new life.

I started this journey 20 years ago and since then, I’ve sold hundreds of my own paintings, made hundreds of thousands of dollars in art sales, spoken about creativity and the artistic process at dozens of conferences, and hosted a countless number of my own workshops where I get to meet incredible people like you! I love to teach others my methods of rebellious painting (and living) and I hold nothing back. 

Now, I’m bringing you this bootcamp because I firmly believe that creating fine art isn’t for the lucky few who were “born with it.” We’ve all got it!! We just need the training. Plus…and this is the most important part…making art frees us to excavate our truest, wildest, most authentic selves. And frankly, we don’t have any more time to waste on the bullshit.

I know what it’s like to feel the frustration of knowing what you want to say in your art but never being quite sure how to do it. I know how it feels to be unsure if the work you created was any good…or if our friends/family were just being nice. And I know what it feels like to truly have a style, but not quite sure how to find it.   

But when I found my voice, all of that changed. 

And now…I want to help you find the liberation that I did, so you too can make your best, most powerful, honest art. Why? Because the world needs you and your magic.Â
