Art Coaching Services
I have a Master’s degree in Art History, taught at the college level for 19 years, and dedicated nearly a decade to running a non-profit art space in Oakland.
Supporting artists has always been a passion of mine, and I bring a deep understanding of the art world and the challenges artists face in building sustainable careers.
Cultivating an Empowered Mindset – Supporting you in staying aligned with your big-picture vision and recognizing inner blocks, so you don’t get stuck in self-doubt and overwhelm.
Thinking Creatively – Exploring strategies for financial sustainability and building systems that support balance and well-being.
Developing concrete career plans – Creating an actionable 2-year plan to move your career forward with clarity and purpose.
Articulating your artist statement – Crafting an authentic, compelling statement that truly reflects your vision and practice.
Portfolio and website development – Helping you curate and present your work effectively online and in applications.
Marketing materials – Guidance on crafting bios, CVs, and promotional content to showcase your work professionally.
Securing grants, residencies, and exhibitions – Providing strategic guidance to help you identify and successfully apply for opportunities that align with your goals.
As your Art Coach, here are some of the things I can support you with:
Artists I’ve worked with have received major residencies and significant grants, including the Pollock Krasner, as well as secured gallery representation.
I am currently offering a special rate for artists at just $1200 for 6 sessions.
This includes review and editing feedback in between sessions.
Flexible Payment Plan: Pay over 3 monthly installments.
Grant Opportunity: CA based artists may be eligible for up to $600 from the Center for Cultural Innovation Quick Grant (Visit)
I have limited spaces at this rate, so if you're interested, book a free discovery call to see if it’s the right fit for you.
“Suzanne truly helped me unearth a new optimism. I now have a clear idea of what I want my future to look like and I can’t thank her enough.”
“If it weren’t for Suzanne believing in me, I wouldn’t be where I am in my career right now, so I am so grateful to have met and worked with her and to call her my coach.”
