Join 1:1 Art Mentoring & Creative Coaching with me, Georgina Forbes of Lordy Dordie and unlock your potential as an artist!

As a Fine Artist, Surface Pattern Designer, and small business owner for over 25 years, I’ve worn many creative hats and collected a treasure trove of valuable business tips and tricks along the way.  If you're looking for an Artist who can offer a combination of creative skills like organisation, strategic thinking, art world know-how, social media expertise, motivation and determination, you've come to the right place!

Do you find yourself overwhelmed by your artistic to-do list? Are you unsure of how to begin building your creative business?  Or feeling unsure of your artistic style? Need guidance in taking your creative business to the next level? Looking for a fresh perspective to navigate the changing art business world and ignite your creativity? Is there something holding you back from reaching your goals? Or perhaps you want to bounce ideas off of me? Whether it's discussing your artwork or just chatting about your creative journey, I am here to support and inspire you. 

What you will receive for your mentoring session: 

• 60 or 90 or 120 MINUTE Google Meet call + RECORDING of our session or a Mentoring session in person 

  • 60 minutes (1-2 action items to discuss) $100
  • 90 minutes (3-4 actions items to discuss) $149
  • 120 minutes (5+ action items to discuss) $195
    

• A follow up email with links to tools that we discussed during our call, as well as any additional ones that Georgie thinks may be beneficial for you and your business. 

• 7 days of direct support via DMs and/or EMAIL from Georgie after your mentoring session.

Before our call, I'll send you a quick email with a few friendly questions. This gives me a chance to get to know you better and understand your artistic journey. That way, when we chat during our mentoring session, we can jump right in and make the most of our time together, ensuring you get the personalised mentoring and support you're looking for.
