TY NATHAN CLARK
ARTIST MENTORSHIP PROGRAM
SESSION 15 APPLICATIONS Open in November for January-March 2026
This program is digital via Zoom and open to international artists.
THE MENTORSHIP THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING.
Since 2021, I've personally selected and transformed 68 artists from 21 countries into confident, exhibiting, selling professionals. This isn't a course – it's a complete reconstruction of how you work, think, and succeed as an artist.
Who's Been Through This Transformation: Emmy Award-winning producers discovering their visual voice. Theoretical physicists translating complexity into canvas. Baristas building galleries connections between shifts. Retired executives starting their second act. Art school grads finally learning what school didn't teach. Artists returning after 10-year breaks. Military veterans finding new missions in art.
What unites them? Not their backgrounds, but their results. Solo exhibitions within months. Gallery representation. Museum shows. International residencies. Sales to serious collectors. Most importantly: the unshakeable confidence to make work that matters.
The 21-Country Network: Spain, Austria, Brazil, Portugal, Germany, Czech Republic, Netherlands, Sweden, Poland, Canada, France, Estonia, UAE, Australia, Ireland, South Africa, Italy, Tunisia, Jordan, Mexico, Uruguay, and the United States. When you join, you're not just getting a mentor – you're joining an international family of serious artists.
What Actually Happens: Over the 3 part course, we'll dissect your practice, identify what's holding you back, and systematically remove every obstacle between you and your best work. This isn't about making pretty pictures – it's about becoming the artist you're capable of being.
Part 1: Destroy resistance, build unbreakeable studio discipline
Part 2: Develop your authentic voice, find your audience
Part3: Master the psychology of long-term success
Why I Can Guide You: I've been mentored by world-class artists, filmmakers, CEOs, and entrepreneurs. I've run international PR campaigns, produced award-winning films, built multiple businesses, and transitioned from side-hustles to full-time art. Today my work is represented in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Houston, Austin, Miami, and New York.
But more importantly: I've made every mistake you're about to make. I've faced every fear you're facing. And I've found the way through.
The Hard Truth: You'll only get out what you put in. If you want to coast, find another program. If you want to transform, apply below.

Why are payments non-refundable? I want artists that are serious about their craft and willing to sacrifice and dedicate towards their future. I am highly selective in who I choose to share my time with, and I will be fully immersed in working with the individuals that I choose for the program.
