A Faculty, Not A Guru

In the age of the Internet, there is no reason to settle for second best. We curate the authors, influencers, and overachievers in the art world that only celebrity artists tend to have access to.

Give a professional impression.

It only takes three seconds to be judged an amateur -- avoid red flags.

The fastest way to earn a steady monthly art income by working one day per week.

Step 3

Grow an audience of art buyers.

Avoid the boom & bust cycles of art show sales by selling your art directly to collectors.

Step 4

Get featured in others’ audiences.

Free exposure in magazines, podcasts & newsletters that resonate with your work.

Step 5

Get gallery representation.

A systematic way to get multiple galleries selling your most expensive works.

Get the sales & exposure you deserve...


  • Reputable galleries represent you (and sell your work)
  • A growing online audience that buys from you every month
  • Featured in the media on an ongoing basis
  • Predictable full time income from teaching 1x/week online
  • Knowing you can keep making art for the rest of your life
  • Contributing to your family household
  • Making meaningful artwork that gets the visibility it deserves

...avoiding...

  • Another year (or decade) passing you by with little to show for it
  • Wasting hundreds of hours reading random, disconnected advice
  • Another month without getting paid for your hard earned art skills
