Choose the amount of time, not the subject.
The subject is whatever you bring. Drawing, oil, sculpture, anatomy, composition, a portfolio that isn’t working, a painting that’s been stuck for a month. What changes between these is how much room there is to go into it.
A single session
$5530 minutes · online
One problem, one conversation.
Focused feedback on a drawing, a painting, a sculpture or an anatomy study. We find the strengths, name what's actually blocking you, and set the next practical step.
A full hour
$12560 minutes · online
For work that needs real time.
Your work reviewed in depth, the technical and conceptual problems talked through properly, and a plan of study made for you — composition, anatomy, portfolio, atelier practice.

Where a practice starts to hold.
A structured introduction to classical realism — line, form, value, observation, process. Each session builds on the last, with exercises to work on between them.

The closest thing to the Conservatory, from home.
The same four-week arc with the room a full hour gives: demonstrations, longer critique, and a study plan that goes on working after the last session ends.
Four-week programs begin with a first session spent on your background and the work you already have, so bring it. Have your easel or desk set up, and your camera placed where it can actually show the surface — half of what goes wrong online is lighting.
A conversation first
For anyone weighing up the Conservatory, mentorship or Tuscany. Informational and exploratory — in the academy's own words, it does not guarantee admission to anything. It commits you to nothing.
Pick a timeMentorship is not a smaller Conservatory.
It works around a life that already has other things in it. The Conservatory is the opposite — a year, two days a week in the studio, twelve people, and an application. If that is what you actually want, apply for it rather than approximating it.
