"The Artist's Navigation Course is one of the best investments I have done for not only my art business, but myself as well."
In a day and age where there is so much content, courses, social media you feel like you have to juggle and master it all and it's totally overwhelming. Kat's course breaks the steps down to pursuing your business/goals in a way that is approachable, tactical and incredibly inspiring! She has your back every step of the way and I know will continue to do so in the future. I am also so stoked to have these modules that I can rewatch and apply to any new future business ideas, or when I am overwhelmed and need to regroup my thoughts and goals. Kat is a true gem for what she has done not just for this course, but for the entire art world and community! Thanks so much!

Why I'm Teaching this course
I've been there too, wondering "why I can't figure this thing out?"
I remember sitting on the edge of our bed, back aching after a long IHOP shift, wondering why I wasn't succeeding as an artist. But I had a dream and a passion to make it happen. I had no idea how, but that small hope pushed me to learn the ropes and figure it out. Now, I've condensed everything I've learned into this 6-week course for artists like you to save you time and heartache. Your art career is yours to design. Whether you want to make it on your own, work with galleries, or both, this course can help.
Everything I share is based on my own journey and my time spent working with curators, galleries, art fairs, and more. I want you to have the best information and action steps so you can get back to creating.The world needs your unique art!

ENROLL NOW
Hey there!
I'm Kat and I want to be your guide.
I understand the struggles all too well. When I finally experienced ease, flow, and abundance in my life and art journey, I felt an undeniable duty to share the tools and mindset shifts that transformed my path. Remember, you're not on this journey alone.
The voyage that got me here.
Remember, you're not on this journey alone. In 2011, burdened with debt and facing a bleak outlook post-art school, ugly-crying became my daily routine. Every job, every exhibition I applied for turned me away. My reality? Serving pancakes just to get by. I felt defeated and frustrated.
Yet, a small voice inside me whispered that I was destined for more, even if my current circumstances hinted otherwise. After years of scraping by, squeezing art sessions on our apartment floor between various odd jobs, a realization dawned on me.
It was time to wholeheartedly embrace my identity as an artist.
This course is the only one of its kind because...
I teach from my experiences and tested this on my clients.
However, my success wasn't due to mere luck. It was about:
- Holding onto a vivid vision.
- Taking inspired actions.
- Never losing faith.
- Committing to hard work.
- And learning the blueprint of being a professional artist that I teach inside this course.
Let's Set Sail!
So what are you waiting for?

I finished this experience with more strength and courage to put my self out there, which was exactly the goal I wanted to reach when I first started the course."

"The Artist Navigation Course was incredibly beneficial to my life for a variety of reasons. I learned so much about the practical tools needed to design my own online art program, but Kat also helped so much in the confidence-building aspect. I've had an idea for the past year to design my program, and taking Kat's course enabled me to show up for myself, learn practical/ business tools, and work through my own limiting beliefs that I didn't realize I had. She also helped a lot to soothe some of my studio anxiety. Believing in myself helped me shift my mindset from feeling embarrassed of my art and career dreams to excited and empowered to take the next right to achieve them. Take this course - it's so so beneficial in many different ways!"
