Mentoring
One-to-one mentoring for artists, illustrators and visual creatives seeking clarity, direction and momentum.
Whether you’re developing a portfolio, feeling stuck in your practice or working out how to position yourself professionally, mentoring offers a focused space to step back, talk things through and identify clear next steps.
Sessions are shaped around you and might include:
Developing or refining your portfolio
Creative direction and project feedback
Website and social media review
Positioning your work and approaching clients
Building confidence, structure and momentum
Navigating a shift in your practice or career
I bring more than ten years of experience as a professional illustrator and artist, alongside five years mentoring illustrators through the Association of Illustrators. My approach is honest, encouraging and practical, combining thoughtful creative feedback with actions you can realistically take forward.
Ways to work together
Single Mentoring Session | £85
A focused 60-minute one-to-one session shaped around your practice, portfolio or current creative challenges.
Before the session, you’ll complete a short questionnaire so we can make the best use of our time. Afterwards, I’ll send brief notes outlining the key points and practical next steps.
Three-Session Mentoring Package | £225
Three 60-minute sessions for anyone looking for sustained support, development and accountability.
We’ll establish clear goals at the beginning, with each session building on the last. Brief follow-up notes and practical actions will help you maintain momentum between calls. Sessions usually take place across 6–8 weeks.
All sessions are held on Zoom. Dates and times will be arranged by email following booking.
A limited number of mentoring spaces are currently available.
