We have a brand NEW Inner Circle small-group mentoring intensive starting next spring, on Monday, February 1st! One of the amazing things about Inner Circle is how personalized it is. There’s no set curriculum: instead, the exact content is customized exactly to the needs and wants of the specific group of just 12 participants. Lilla realized early on during the very first Inner Circle that what worked best was to give each student a personalized assignment every week. Last week, we shared how the mini assignments that Lilla created for Pallak Shah helped her to overcome her anxiety around creating full-page spreads, but that’s not all this highly-focused, individual guidance and support can do: it can also help you gain focus on your own career and discover what really matters to you, and what you want to concentrate on. This week, we meet another Inner Circle participant who did just

Last week we met Jo Mahoney, and this week we’re hearing from another Inner Circle student, Pallak Shah. Check out what she thought of Inner Circle, and how her career has changed since then, below!

As an art agent, I nurtured and mentored the artists I represented for 30 years, helping them to create beautiful art and achieve career success. Let me do the same for you. Lilla here. I’m so incredibly excited about my small-group mentoring intensive, Inner Circle. It gives me the opportunity to do what I love most: closely mentor a small group of artists and help them reach the next level. So many artists crave individual guidance, and with my decades of experience as an agent and teacher, I know exactly how to help people make their work more true to themselves, more gorgeous, and more lucrative. That’s what lights me up. Are you wondering if Inner Circle would be right for you?
