Welcome to the Works!
I am so happy you are here! I know how it feels to take the first step toward professionalizing your art practice. Even if you have been a working artist for years, many of us haven’t addressed the “other side” of what we do. The “other side” includes creating your mailing list, updating your website, working on your materials, and also doing the leg work of connecting with spaces and people.
During your first week, you will receive onboarding emails.
Please read them to get the most out of the lessons and events!
If you do not receive these, please check your spam and then contact ilywtechnology@gmail.com
Please watch the video to tour our space and understand how to access lessons, our community and more!
Your Membership gives you access to so much!
1 – Lessons
The membership is built upon our weekly lessons. Each week a new lesson is available in the “Lesson” tab in the menu at the top. Each lesson includes a video, educational information, a quiz, and a goal.
Remember, each week, you receive a NEW lesson. This is to help you implement the content and not just read it. The reading isn’t going to get your work out there, the DOING of it will. Make sure you watch the above video to see how to access the lessons.
You can find the new content in the menu at the top of this page under “Lessons”. Each week a new page will be released.
*With an annual membership you have access to all of the lessons to view in any order!
2 – Goals
Each lesson has a “Goal” for you to complete that week. The Goals are achievable and broken down to make them easy to accomplish and give you the maximum benefit. So many times, we can feel overwhelmed by decisions making. You can relax and just follow the goals to get you where you need to go!
