Art Coach
Studio time with a deadline that matters
Fundamentals, studies, sketches, finished work, and critique — Studio Sessions planned into a Project Cycle that ends at the show or the portfolio deadline.
For artists with a portfolio due, a show to hang, or a skill to rebuild — who want structure without someone else's curriculum.
What Coach plans
- Studio Sessions that balance fundamentals with finished pieces
- Exercises by category: fundamentals, studies, sketches, finished work, critique
- Critique sessions as run-throughs, rated 1–10 against your own bar
- A Project Cycle that counts backward from the deadline to six finished pieces
What your phone records
- Studio Logs with minutes per exercise
- Ratings for critiques and finished-work reviews
- Notes on what to change next time
- A calendar that shows the studio days that happened and the ones that did not
Toward the date
Project Cycle: built back from the show or portfolio deadline
A show or a portfolio deadline sets the end of the Project Cycle; Coach spaces studies, finished pieces, and review so the last week is framing, not painting.
Every plan is a project cycle in your Art Coach's color, with its own reminders. Miss a day and the calendar says so — a fact, never a verdict.
