TOGETHER WE CAN ELEVATE YOUR STUDIO PRACTICE
My name is Tim Gleason, a working artist and studio manager for over 30 years, and my passion is helping artists to compassionately evaluate their work, step out of comfort zones, and explore new aspects of creativity.
Are you feeling stuck in your art practice, making the same thing over and over again?
Want to shake things up and break out of your usual routine?
What is distracting you from your practice? mobile devices? negative thoughts?
Are your artworks feeling disconnected, and you're unsure how to tie them together?
Could you use some more structure and discipline in your studio practice?
Feeling like you need a boost of inspiration but not sure where to find it?
How often do you question your work?
As a working artist I spend a lot of solitary time and it can be hard to get perspective on myself, my process, and my artwork. Many times I have gotten stuck in a piece and not known which way to turn, or realized that I have made the same drawing again, or negative thoughts have taken over and I am unable to find my around them…
Over time, I have created disciplines, philosophies, and tools to help overcome these struggles. Now I have a strong understanding of what it takes to maintain a devoted artistic practice that grows over time.
One vital tool is an educated outside perspective. Now I am offering that experience to you.
With regular self reflection and thoughtful investigation, we’ll find the balance between intellect and inspiration in your work. Through your studio notes, conversation, and research, I will help you gain clarity into your practice. We’ll consider the above questions as we dive into your “habits" to spark a deeper understanding of your creative processes and help overcome potential roadblocks. Together, we can cut through complexity, find clarity, and tackle creative challenges head-on, rediscovering the spark that ingnited your creative fire. It's time to relight that inspiration.
