Shape the writing that frames your work, from artist statements to the supplemental essays that art and design programs ask for. Often paired with coaching, available on its own.
Coaching is offered as a 10-session package or as individual sessions, with the expert review available inside the package. We match the shape of the engagement to your teen's goals and timeline at the free consultation.
Coaching is customized to each student's interests, needs, schedule and aspirations. Whether your teen is just starting or refining a senior-year portfolio, the approach is flexible, strategic and deeply student-centered.
Dr. Nell Daniel brings over 30 years of teaching art and design to high school and college students, as a former Director of Admissions at Parsons School of Design and a two-term member of the RISD Board of Trustees.
The creative process builds more than portfolios. It builds a lifelong, confident creative practice.
Whether you are starting out or refining a senior-year portfolio, we are here to help you stand out and get in. Book a free initial consultation to begin.
