STUDENT TESTIMONY

“Over this pandemic, so many artists have felt uninspired or bogged down by the collective and prolonged trauma. My time spent with Artistic Clarity over the pandemic has been instrumental in helping me to stave off artistic depletion and find a sustainable artistic HABIT. As artists and humans, we crave connection with other people, with our muse, with the ability to travel freely; these things help us connect to our inspiration, and many of us are now visibly absent from our lives. As a teacher, Pattie Miles is many things: organized, thoughtful, creative, compassionate, flexible, knowledgeable. Working with her on my art practice has shown me how to create a realistic, manageable habit, keeping my creative engine humming rather than just burning out. She’s given me both the toolbox and a wealth of tools inside said box. If you have the opportunity to take a class with her, DO IT. If you’re toying with the idea of taking a course of hers, DO IT. Pattie offers up a panoply of artistic snacks that will revitalize and refocus your creativity. ”

COURSE CIRRICULUM

  • WEEK 01: WHO ARE YOU AS AN ARTIST?

    As an artist, what sets you apart is your unique perspective and how you express it through your art. Your creations are a reflection of your emotions, experiences, values, beliefs, and choices, which collectively make you distinctive. In this module, you will learn how to establish the fundamental groundwork for your artistic practice. This will enable you to start off with a strong foundation and free up more time in your day. You will also gain clarity on the areas that require your focus in order to establish a sustainable success for your art practice. Not only will you develop and structure a solid foundation for your art practice, but you will also learn how to measure your progress effectively and organize your creative process. These skills will assist you in producing more art and running your artistic life with boldness and purpose.

  • WEEK 02: WHAT IS YOUR ARTISTIC PURPOSE?

    In this module, I will help you overcome creative blocks by providing guidance on scheduling your self-expression, creating lasting affirmations, and establishing effective creative systems. By doing so, you will gain insight into managing the ups and downs of your creative journey and understand how to prioritize your efforts for progress. To inspire your art practice, we will address various obstacles such as perfectionism, procrastination, imposter syndrome, the importance of rest and recharge, and what Brené Brown refers to as a "vulnerability hangover." We will delve deep into these topics to provide thorough understanding and strategies for overcoming them. Remember, consistency in your creative endeavors will boost your confidence. No longer will you need to guess the next steps for your art practice. You will create a personalized workflow that aligns with your purpose, ensuring clarity on what needs to be done. Say goodbye to fears of micromanaging or avoidance as you establish a reliable and effective system for your creative journey.

  • WEEK 03: WHAT ARE YOUR ARTISTIC PATHS?

    In this course, I collaborate with artists, creatives, and those who are curious about creativity to help them bring their ambitious artistic visions to life. We explore intentional creative beginnings in a calm and spacious environment. Together, we will discover your unique talents and ways to express your artistic voice effectively. I believe that building a strong foundation for your art practice is crucial, combining solid techniques with experimental approaches. The choices you make at the beginning of your creative journey will influence how long it takes to achieve your artistic goals. My goal is to assist you in establishing a distinctive and mission-driven creative practice that reflects your personal interpretation of modern life.
