I’ve definitely been there and know exactly how you feel.
No matter what career path I tried, what degree I was studying, or where I thought I was headed in life… all I really wanted was to paint.
But not just for fun anymore. I wanted this to be my career. I wanted to be paid as an artist. To actually make a living doing the thing I loved most.
And here’s THE TRUTH:
We make our lives happen. You are where you are now because of YOU.
When people told me moving to Boulder, CO would be a mistake, that we wouldn’t be able to afford it… I made it happen anyway.
I’ve been where you are. The pull to create. The doubt about whether it can really work. The frustration of making art without a clear direction.
This is why I built this mentorship: to give serious artists the roadmap I wish I’d had sooner. Because if you’re ready to claim your artistic voice and move forward with confidence, you can make this real.
It’s TIME to CHANGE your MINDSET.
It’s TIME to CLAIM your own CREATIVE POWER.
Online art courses are EVERYWHERE, and while they’re great for learning skills, they don’t offer the guidance and accountability you need to take real action.
This is different. You’ll get 1:1 mentorship, step-by-step guidance, and actionable feedback on your work. That’s how you move from creating pieces randomly to building a polished portfolio that showcases your style and professional potential.
By the end of our 3 months, you will:
Tailored roadmap based on your skills, goals, and preferred style. Step-by-step assignments to build technique & confidence.
Deep, direct feedback on form, color, composition, concept; help you move forward every 2 weeks.
Quick check-ins, help when you’re stuck, maintain momentum.
Work alongside me in live sessions; get feedback in real time; feel part of a creative community.
Personalized video walkthrough of your completed pieces + actionable suggestions. Guidance on how to share or sell your work.
This coaching is for you if you:
This is NOT for you if you:

Hey, I’m Mónica! An artist, musician, and educator from Colorado.
For years, I played the role of the starving artist, watching my bank account dip below zero more times than I’d like to admit. Eventually, I realized something had to change.
Instead of waiting for opportunities, I learned how to build a PROFITABLE art business on my own terms.
Now, I help artists like you make the same shift. With personalized guidance, mindset transformations, and proven strategies that can take you from struggling to thriving. It’s my mission to show you how to step into your CREATIVE POWER and become a 5-figure-month ARTIST.
Expect ~3-6 hours/week: creating, assignments, feedback & revision.
YES! It builds a strong showcase-ready body of work that you can share or use to approach galleries/or show online. We’ll go over how to present your work professionally.
One-on-one coaching, email access, virtual co-working, video walkthroughs, PLUS the personalized roadmap & curriculum to keep you focused.
This mentorship is not a step-by-step painting class. While I will give you personalized feedback on technique, composition, and color, the focus is on helping you develop a polished body of work and a professional portfolio. This program is designed for artists who already have some experience with art and are ready to take the next step - moving from hobbyist to confident, career-ready artist.
