Taming the Inner Critic for Artistic Success
Join us for a transformative masterclass designed to help visual artists conquer their inner critic and thrive in their artistic journey.
In Taming the Inner Critic for Artistic Success, you’ll gain valuable tools and insights to build confidence, foster self-compassion, and develop strategies to thrive in your artistic journey. This engaging session features practical exercises, group discussions, and an exclusive talk by our special guest speaker, Alyssa Monks, an internationally celebrated painter whose work bridges the gap between realism and abstraction.
Alyssa Monks is renowned for her evocative figurative paintings, where she skillfully layers spaces and moments to push the boundaries of traditional realism. Her work incorporates abstract elements such as semi-transparent filters of glass, steam, water, and foliage, creating dynamic compositions that evoke both tension and intimacy.
Monks’s paintings have been showcased in solo and group exhibitions around the world, including “Intimacy” at the Kunst Museum in Ahlen, Germany, and “Reconfiguring the Body in American Art, 1820–2009” at the National Academy Museum of Fine Arts in New York. Her recent solo exhibition, “It’s All Under Control,” was held at Forum Gallery in 2021-2022.
Alyssa’s work is featured in prestigious collections, including those of the Savannah College of Art, The Bennett Collection, and prominent individuals such as Alec Baldwin and Luciano Benetton. She also made a significant cultural impact when her art was featured in the FX television series The Americans and delivered a TED talk on her work, now featured on TED.com. Named one of the “16 Most Influential Women Artists Alive Today” by Graphic Design Degree Hub, Alyssa Monks continues to inspire through her lectures, workshops, and mentorships.
This masterclass is designed to provide practical tools and actionable strategies to help artists grow both personally and professionally. Key takeaways include:
This session is perfect for artists at any stage of their career who want to break free from negative thought patterns and build the confidence to succeed. With Alyssa Monks’s inspiring journey as an artist and mentor, you’ll leave this masterclass with a renewed sense of purpose and direction in your creative practice.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from one of the most influential contemporary artists and take the next step in your artistic journey!
