WELCOME TO OUR BESTSELLING WORKSHOP

ARTIST INTENSIVE
MASTERING YOUR WORDS & WINNING GRANTS

Join us for a transformative 3-day workshop where we delve deep into the art of crafting compelling artist bios, statements, and gallery proposals!
Laptop

When we first dive into our creative practices, all we want to do is let our imaginations run wild. We want to paint, draw, sculpt, and capture moments through our lens without the constraints of language.

But then reality hits, and suddenly, we're expected to articulate the depth and meaning behind our creations. We're asked to write artist bios, statements, and gallery proposals – tasks that feel worlds away from our natural inclination to create.

It's like being handed a canvas and a pen, and being told to paint a masterpiece with words.

 

How did we not see this coming?

The truth is, mastering the art of putting your creative vision into words is essential for forging meaningful connections with your audience. Your art is your soul's expression, but it's your words that invite others into your world, allowing them to experience the depth of your vision.

That's where the Artist Intensive: Put It Into Words comes in. We understand the struggle of bridging the gap between your art and your words, and we're here to guide you every step of the way.

Join us for three transformative days where you'll learn how to unlock the power of words to elevate your artistry. Say goodbye to the frustration of struggling to articulate your vision, and hello to the confidence of knowing your words do justice to your creations.

Heather, US

I’d contemplated many workshops before, even signed up for a few. Never have I benefited in the way that I have from Mona’s. Whether you are an emerging artist or established, you will benefit from Mona’s workshop by digging deeper into your practice that will help you confidently communicate your message to gallerists, curators, and the audience of your dreams.

Courtney Griffin

Courtney, US

I feel so much more aligned with who I am as a person, why I make the work I do and what story I am telling with my art. I feel like a stronger story teller and writer after this class. It far exceeded my expectations and was by far one of the most powerful trainings I've ever done online! Mona created a truly safe space for all students to share bravely, even if it was messy! I cried as I shared parts of my story on the first day, and instead of feeling shame, I felt empowered to continue digging deeper and understanding more of myself. Mona is so generous with her knowledge and I hope to continue learning with her!

This course surpassed my expectations! I knew it would be good, but it was so much more than I initially thought it would be. Mona is an amazing teacher, very well organized, giving generously so much knowledge, while at the same time being very patient and gentle with all of us. She created from the start a safe space for us, making it possible to open up and to connect with one another in a deep way.
