The Mindset of an Artist

1:1 Creative Mentoring with Claire Harrison

You don’t need more technique.

You just need a way forward.

Many people come to art feeling stuck.

You might be:

  • Returning after years away
  • Lacking confidence
  • Unsure where to start
  • Waiting for inspiration that never comes

Or quietly feeling:

“I want this… but I don’t know how.”

A different approach

This isn’t a traditional art lesson.

I don’t teach you what to draw.

I help you understand how to become an artist in your own way.

With over 20 years as a professional artist, I offer:

  • Personalised 1:1 mentoring
  • A supportive, pressure-free space
  • Guidance tailored entirely to you

What we’ll work on

  • Reconnecting with your creative identity
  • Building a creative process that actually works
  • Overcoming creative block and self-doubt
  • Finding your direction and confidence

Mentoring Options

Creative Reset Session

£90 | 90 minutes

A one-off session to help you:

  • Gain clarity
  • Break through creative block
  • Know what to do next

4-Session Mentoring Programme

£340 for 4, 90 minute sessions,

A deeper journey to:

  • Build confidence
  • Develop your creative process
  • Move forward with clarity and direction

A gentle reminder

You are not “untalented.”

You’ve just never been shown how to trust your creativity.

Get in Touch

I keep mentoring spaces small so each person gets my full attention.

If this resonates with you, you’re very welcome to contact me, no pressure, just a conversation.

About Me

I’ve been a practising artist for over 20 years, since graduating with a Fine Art degree, and throughout that time I’ve exhibited my work in both private and public collections in the UK and internationally.

However, what has always been most important to me is not just the finished work, it’s the creative process behind it.

Over the years, alongside my own practice, I’ve worked extensively with students of all ages and abilities, and I’ve seen first-hand how many people feel blocked, unsure, or convinced they’re “not good enough” to be artists.

This is why my approach to teaching has always been different. I don’t believe in rigid instruction or one-size-fits-all methods.

Instead, I work closely with each person to help them reconnect with their own creativity, develop their confidence, and find a way of working that feels natural and sustainable.

My mentoring is shaped not just by my experience as an artist, but by a deep understanding that creativity is something personal, often vulnerable and something that deserves to be nurtured, not judged.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to be good at drawing?

Not at all. Many of the people I work with feel exactly this way.
The sessions are not about being “good enough”, they are about helping you reconnect with your creativity and build confidence in your own process.

What if I don’t know what I want to create?

That’s completely fine and very common.
Part of the mentoring is helping you explore your interests and discover what feels meaningful to you.

How are the sessions structured?

Each session is around 1.5 hours and is tailored entirely to you.
Rather than following a fixed plan, we focus on what you need most, whether that’s overcoming block, building a process, or developing your ideas.

Are sessions in person or online?

Sessions are online, however if you live in the Horsham area, I am happy to quote for in person mentoring in your home.

What happens after the sessions?

You will leave with a clearer understanding of your creative direction and practical ways to continue your work independently.

Many people choose to continue with further mentoring, but there is no pressure to do so.
