Your Questions Answered
I’m just a beginner, is this too advanced for me?
We’ve seen students who have literally never picked up a brush before go through the program and create masterpieces by the end. So YES, this program is made for you too.
Every section of the Mastery Program starts with understanding the fundamentals. With each lesson and assignment you complete, you’ll become more empowered to create art you never thought you were capable of creating before.
If you follow the order of the lessons and complete the assignments, you’ll become a Master by the end. Your family and friends will tell you, “I never knew that you were so talented,” and hopefully you’ll share the secret of how you realized it.
I already went to art school, why do I need to take this program?
The sad reality is most art schools are run by professional academia, not professional artists. That’s why you spent an entire semester on anatomy, when the useful information you actually needed for your art could’ve been taught in ONE lecture.
Professors spend their lives studying the nuances and hyper specialize over one aspect of art. You graduate school without learning what you actually set out to learn: how to become a professional artist.
Our instructors are obsessed with making a living with art. And they share with you exactly how they’ve been able to do it for themselves in this one year program. The reason we recommend you complete every lesson, even if it’s a reminder for you, is because they’re a great refresher for what you might’ve forgotten, could’ve missed, or not been taught in school.
The skills you learn will compound, so once you reach the mixed media section, it’s crucial that you’ve practiced our oil and drawing foundations.
In summary, if you already went to an art school, this program is perfect for you.
I’ve tried other online art classes and didn’t get what I was hoping for, how do I know this won’t be the same?
We can confidently say we know you’ll experience the success you’re looking for—whether that’s creating beautiful paintings that you, your family, and friends are proud of, or quitting your job to work at art full-time because you’re selling your pieces consistently. We can claim this because we’ve had thousands of students take this program with countless success stories.
If for any reason you don’t love the Mastery Program wholeheartedly with every fiber of your being, you can get a full refund within 30 days of purchasing the program, no questions asked.
So you have nothing to lose at all!
What if I’m not ready to commit to a whole year?
The beauty of the Mastery Program is that you can learn at whatever pace you want to set. At the end of the day, this is your program, so if you want to take the program over the course of two years, you’re welcome to. Likewise, if you want to finish it in just 4 months, you rock!
The program is designed to be completed over the course of a year, so if you follow the curriculum, by this time next year you’ll have an entire portfolio of art that’s more beautiful than you’re even capable of dreaming of right now. Imagine that. Seriously. Plus, several of your pieces will already have sold.
It’s an incredible feeling and we can’t wait for you to experience it!
How do I know I'll sell my art?
We have a proven process that’s worked for countless artists that have taken the program before you. Even if you can’t draw a stick figure and don’t know how to sell anything, we’ll teach you from start to finish everything you need to know. However, for the program to work, you have to work, too.
What if I only need to learn part of the program (i.e. marketing)
The Mastery Program was carefully and meticulously designed to optimize an artist’s success. Skipping to the end might be tempting, especially if you’ve been an artist for a while and have even been selling your work, but marketing alone is not enough for achieving long-term success.
Regardless of your skill level, we’re confident that the harmony of all sections of The Mastery Program will lead to the greatest possible results for you in your art career. Don’t short-change yourself! While our Marketing section is invaluable, it is not the most valuable in considering the whole of your dream to become a professional artist.
The entirety of the Mastery Program is needed for the best possible results in your career. This is truly the investment of a lifetime.
What if I don’t want to become a professional, I just want to get good at painting?
Lucky for you, you’re about to become so skilled at painting that people will be asking how to buy your art. And you won’t really have a choice but to sell it to them because it’s going to mean so much to them—and could even change their life.
If you’re sitting on a pile of money already and don’t have the desire to sell your art, that’s great. During the Mastery Program your skills will skyrocket. You’ll be able to paint anything that you want, so this really is a no-brainer.
I wasn’t born with talent, how can I be successful when I know so many talented artists and am following so many on social media?
The problem with social media today is that it glorifies success without showing you the hard work that people put in. Each of those incredible artists you follow most likely spent years trying to hone their process and develop their style.
You can consider yourself blessed because your new instructors have already toiled and spent years figuring out the key to success for artists. Now, they’re sharing that with you.
That means that you don’t have to spend nearly as long to get where you want to be. Just imagine, a year from now you’ll have an entire portfolio of 30 paintings to impress your friends, family, and entire network.
The secret that most artists don’t want you to know is that talent doesn’t matter. Sure, some people are born with a greater aptitude than others, but every single person has to put in their time and energy to become a great artist.
