Are you a too-many-online-courses person?


Hi Reader,

Do you have a digital graveyard of half-finished art courses sitting on your computer?

If so, welcome to the club. Many artists I work with feel a mix of excitement, guilt, and even shame about all the workshops they’ve bought but never “completed.”

But, what if unfinished courses aren’t evidence you should give up? Instead, they’re actually evidence you care enough about your art to keep seeking growth.

In my latest article, I share:

  • Why perfectionism hides behind “just one more class…”
  • A fresh way to measure progress (that doesn’t require mastering everything)
  • How to treat your courses like a resource instead of a to-do list
  • Practical strategies to get more from every class you take

I promise, it will help you let go of the guilt, see your learning in a new light, and make more confident choices about your next steps in art.

Remember, proudly call yourself an artist!

Together we are Artist Strong.

P.S. Lydia, one of my students, thought she wasn’t “ready” to enter her work in any competitions. Recently she entered her art in the state county fair… and won three ribbons! That’s the power of choosing learning that aligns with your goals instead of chasing every class out there.
