Academy for Creatives - CLARA NARTEY

Clara leads and teaches from her heart …

Hey there, welcome to my academy for creative people. Teaching is personal to me. I realize that I can impact lives and do so much good when I share what I know. My first job out of college was a teaching job. Since then, I’ve gone on to teach in different settings, corporate clients, train-the-trainer programs, young adults groups, mentees, and students in my online courses.

Are you overwhelmed with busyness and can’t find enough time to be creative – the very thing that you really love ? Are asking yourself at the end of the day where the time went because you didn’t do the things you wanted to do? Ditch the overwhelm. Learn how to make time for what matters to you, discover studio management strategies, how to plan your week, and what to do to remain consistent so you don’t fall off the wagon. Using the STEP framework for creatives, discover how to master your time so that you can master your craft.

I would not have had the confidence to try this without mentorship and you Clara, are one incredible mentor.

There’s this powerful thing that happens when you decide to slow down, reflect, and understand your own thoughts. You become more aware of who you are, you recognize your purpose, and you embark on a journey of self-discovery that leads you to show up in the world as your authentic self, manifesting your dreams and visions. Journaling will help you do that. That’s why many successful people keep a journal. Whether this is the first time you want to try journaling or you tried it in the past and fell off track, this Journal Writing Challenge will get you back on track so that you can reap the wonderful benefits of journaling.

Thank you, Clara. Journaling has become such a great way for me to start my days especially during this turmoil. It’s almost like meditation.

Without clarity, you’re stuck in a rut. You do busy work that doesn’t get you ahead, while you watch others pass you by.

Are you finding that you’re not making as much progress with your creative dreams and your projects as you’d like?

You don’t need a “band-aid” solution, for this. What you need is a clear understanding of the root causes of your creative blocks. Then you’ve got to learn how to overcome them. So that you can stop repeating the same cycle over and over again.

This course, Clarity to Create, will teach you what’s causing your creative blocks and give you tools to push you out of that rut and get your wheels moving again. Learn more…

I’d taken many classes and started lots of projects, I didn’t finish. This class helped me identify some of my road blocks and now I can move beyond them.

What’s your process? Do you know it? Do you have an understanding of how it impacts your outcomes?

Knowing your process and defining what you do will help you improve your results tremendously and increase your confidence in what you do.

Using bite-sized videos which are easily digestible and well-planned assignments/worksheets, you’ll get the instruction you need to create a blueprint for your creative process by defining, tweaking and improving on your current process. Learn More

Finishing the edges of your art quilt is a work of art by itself. Choosing to face your art quilt instead of using a binding, gives it a polished look which makes your art quilt design run all the way to the edges of the art piece. This is a beautiful way to finish your work.
