Someone in your corner for 12 weeks.

Making the work is only part of it. Building a career around it means positioning, marketing, content, selling, direction, confidence, and doing all of it while still making the work.

The Advisory is ongoing 1:1 support for exactly that. Not a course, not a programme: someone with real commercial experience in the art world, in your corner, working with you month to month.

What we work on

Making sure you're actually moving toward your goal: sharpening your website, improving your marketing (and how you feel about doing it), creating content, working through creative blocks, improving your positioning in the market, and helping you make your best work.

Some of it is practical. Some of it is creative. Most of it is both, because in an art career they were never really separate.

How it works

1. Book your first call

Pick a day and time that suits you, and we get started.

2. The kick-off session

The first session is a full deep dive: your website, your socials, how you're presenting yourself and where you are. This is essentially the 1:1 Art Business Consultation, so we start with the whole picture and a clear set of priorities.

3. The follow-up sessions

We then schedule the remaining three calls, one every three weeks: working through the priorities, reviewing what you've done and deciding what's next. Each session builds on the last instead of starting over.

Between calls

When something comes up, whether it's a pricing decision, a post before it goes out, or an email to a gallery, send it over and I'll respond. You're not waiting three weeks to ask.

“I can't promise you representation or sales. No honest advisor can. What I can do is make sure everything within your control is working for you, not against you.”

Ask a question first

Is this for you?

The Advisory is for artists who want to keep building: you're making work, you want it to go somewhere, and you want someone experienced looking at what you're doing and helping you do it better.

If you're stuck on one specific thing, book a Quick-Fire Session. If you want a one-off deep dive first, start with the 1:1 Consultation. Many people move into the Advisory from there.
