You have the freedom to ask questions or work through the content without the distraction or attention of others.

The group course offers virtually all the same benefits of the 1:1 course along with the benefit of the input of the group. You'll have the opportunity to share your practice, have the support of the group and the insight into how others approach the learning through their questions and comments.

LB - Selling Art In Ireland Course
"I would highly recommend this course to any artist who wants some practical down to earth advice and guidance on how to sell and promote their work. Sheelah has many years experience in the art world provides a wonderful resource in supporting artists, whether they are just out of college or, like myself, want to reboot their focus and energy for the road ahead. The knowledge and insight I have gained in doing this course has given me a fresh perspective and some valuable tools on how to target the correct audience for my work"
Jason O'Gorman - Creative Business Advice Intensive
"Sheelah provided me with some extremely insightful and valuable direction during our brief one to one meeting. Speaking to Sheelah I found she is very attentive and exceptionally knowledgeable about the art industry - be it fine art or digital art, Sheelah has a remarkably solid understanding of the business of art. I would recommend anyone looking to pursue an art career, or looking for a nudge in the right direction, to have a chat with Sheelah. Her advice is invaluable"
Audrey Cantillon - Mentoring
"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 advise on how to prepare for an exhibition, how to write an artist statement, and how to structure my time / calendar / planning / commissions."
