Testimonials

"Before starting the programme I knew there were things that I was missing in my approach to my practice but I didn't know what they were. Now, as the programme is ending, I not only know what to do but also exactly how to implement it. I feel like all the gaps in my knowledge have been filled"

Louise Lennon - Artist

"What can I say, we clicked. Sheelah is so easy to talk with yet is extremely professional in her approach. As a mentor, she posses the exact balance of knowledge and support you need when you’re out there on your own as an artist. I found our sessions gave structure to my art practice and during those regular one on one check-ins I discovered areas I needed
to work on and Sheelah gave me the tools to do that
. I would highly recommend Sheelah’s mentoring.

Julie Corcoran - Fine Art Photographer

"Working with Sheelah has given me a real confidence boost. In a gentle way, she showed me where I had made mistakes with my strategy and followed that up with very constructive advice. She helped me better understand strategies for selling art and has given me amazing advice on how to prepare for an exhibition, how to write an artist statement, and how to structure my time / calendar / planning / commissions."

Audrey Cantillon - Illustrator & Portrait Artist

"It is a pleasure to work with Sheelah as my mentor. Her advice is straightforward and always tailored to my specific needs, as an artist.She has helped me identify the most important aspects of my practice, and guided me in keeping them in focus. She has given me clear and creative solutions for increasing both my time in the studio and the amount of work I make."
