Most Mondays I’ll send you relatable  and useful stories, tips, and ideas you can take into the studio.

Artnotes also give you access to occasional free mini courses and email series, discounts, and blog post updates, completely free!

If you feel uncomfortable or a bit fraudy calling yourself an artist, you know how it can stifle your creativity and hold you back. {Not to mention not feeling great!}

Take the FREE ‘I Am an Artist’ 7 Day Challenge and change the way you see yourself.

You know that pile of paintings and drawings on paper you have stacked up in the corner, looking reproachfully at you?

Make Cards from Your Art is a workshop that will help you put them to good use, in the easiest, most fun and relaxing way possible. Not to mention you end up with a batch of cards of your original art at the end, to use for any occasion.

Feel a bit daunted by colour and how to use it in your art?

Colour theory is a huge field of study, and it can feel overwhelming to know how to begin to use it confidently.

But you don’t need to read all the books and make all the colour wheels to make resonant, meaningful, true-to-you art.

Sometimes you just need a starting point to get a foot in the door, so you can begin to make your own exciting colour discoveries. The Exploring Colour Intuitively workshop can help!

Have you been wanting to try creating art in collections? Painted Postcards is a simple and doable workshop that shows you how to put together your own collection of small original paintings, with very few supplies, to keep, give, or sell.

As artists, a large part of our work is intuitive. Practical Intuition is a simple, clear, and inspiring step by step course {not something I usually offer!}, that shows you how to design and make your own personal deck of oracle cards. In it I share how I made my own, and show you the process and benefits of doing this for yourself.

A creative project that strengthens your intuitive connection to yourself and the unseen world, and can be adapted for different uses {inspiration cards, perhaps?}.

What if there was a way to be inspired by other artists that went beyond copying, or even being ‘heavily influenced’ by them?

What if you could actually use what you learned from those artists to inform, develop, and strengthen your own unique art?

There is, and you can. Artist Inspired II takes you on a journey with a selection of artists {who also happen to be women}, showing you how to take your inspiration and run with it as you develop your own distinctive style.

Stuck between creative projects? Lost your mojo and missing the muse? Feeling a bit world weary?

Pack your art supplies and bring a thermos – we’re heading off on a restorative and inspiring artist’s adventure … Into Nature.

A course for low inspiration times, lost mojo times, between projects times – collaborate with the natural world to bring new life and fresh energy to your art.

If you could be an artist in exactly the way you want, what would that look like? The Way of the Happy Artist is more than a course – it’s a foundational program that will show you how to uncover your unique voice and vision as an artist, bring it to life, and share it with the world, with confidence, and so much more clarity.

Creating in collections has helped me hone my voice, stay consistent (without having to only do one thing), build a sustainable art practice, gain confidence, and share and sell my work in ways that feel good to me.

If you’ve wanted any – or all! – of those things, Create a Collection is for you!

This course runs live throughout the year. Find out more by clicking the link below, and if it’s currently closed, you can add yourself to the waitlist.

Haven’t picked up a brush in years? Fresh StART is a mini membership is for the lapsed artists wanting to get back into their art but feeling overwhelmed by options and self doubt.

Make sure your best energy is spent in the studio!

Create your own unique approach to using Instagram {or any social media platform} as an artist that doesn’t have you attached to your phone or feeling bad about yourself with the printable Instagram Playbook.

{Like a workbook, but less intense. 😉}

A planner for artists who don’t do planning! Many of us resist the word ‘plan’ when it comes to our creativity, but having a flexible framework you can adapt to suit your unique and specific needs can result in more accomplishments, more dreams coming true, and more fulfillment as an artist.

The My Creative Year planner contains a range of different pages you can print out and use according to your needs at any time of year, including a collection planner, daily and weekly diary, and a range of other options designed especially for artists.

Curated from a decade of the much loved emails, The Artnotes Collection is a book of encouragement, stories, insights, and fresh perspectives for artists of all kinds.

Now available on Kindle and in Paperback!

My first book is for beginners and re-starters. It’s designed to take you on a journey back to yourself, using your creativity as your lantern and guide. With everyday wisdom and life lessons that I have experienced, developed and use regularly, you are encouraged and supported as you take steps forward into knowing and enjoying yourself as a creative being.

Whether you haven’t picked up a paintbrush in years or are simply finding yourself uninspired lately, you will find within these pages the opportunity to give yourself the joyful and liberating gift of your own creativity. In a simple format of discussion and inspiring images followed by prompts and ideas, and a bundle of resources at the end of the book, you are sure to find something to ignite your creative spark.
