Art demos and coaching in small groups.
Get personal guidance, demos and support from your art mentor among a small group of peers in weekly art mentorship classes. Classes average 3 - 6 people plus your mentor. Group mentorship allows you to learn from others and be exposed to more art! If you prefer one-on-one or semi-private classes, see private art mentorship.
Your artist mentor works with you on both personal pieces and class projects, which are tailored based on the group's interests. Artwork can be submitted online for live feedback or online feedback after class.
Art Mentorship is suitable for adults and teens interested in pursuing personal art projects or those building an art portfolio.

By joining Fei's group mentorship class, Lydia improved her art skills, made awesome artwork, and got accepted into Seneca's Illustration program!
Way to go, Lydia! ✌️

Group Mentorship FAQs
Lecture & Theory
Depending on the interests of the group, the Artist Mentor will talk about advanced art concepts, techniques, and answer questions about the creative process.
Demonstration & Work Period
Art students learn with visuals, so live demos are a part of every class. In Art Mentorship, demos are catered to the interests of the group and can be requested by students! Most classes have a work period where students can draw along to the demo for practice, or work on their own project and get coaching.
Group classes begin with critiques on current artworks in progress, so students can learn from each other, in addition to getting actionable feedback from their mentor. Artist Mentors will digitally demonstrate their suggestions and corrections (ex: proportions) on top of artwork that is submitted online.
Projects are personalized to each student's goals and interests. Homework is not assigned unless you have a portfolio deadline.
