How it Works
Week 1: Before the Live session
- The workshop channel in our Discord opens.
- You’ll get to share your past artworks, and Prof Lieu will review your artworks so we get acquainted before the live session.
- Prof Lieu will provide recommendations for what skills you can work on, as well as what to do during the 3 hour live session, if you want it.
Discord Tech Support
- If Discord is new to you, don’t worry, you’ll have plenty of assistance!
- You are required to join our Discord to participate.
- We ask that you join a few days before the 3 hour live session so we can provide assistance, and make the live session run as smoothly as possible for you.
- Our main workshop guide has logistics and step by step instructions, but the most effective way to get set up is to join early so we have time to troubleshoot things.
- Prof Lieu will hold your hand as much as you need through the tech, and answer your questions.

- See a sample email below.
“Prof Lieu helps each individual to improve their art and finding their own voice as artists.
She saw something in my drawings which I did not try to add to them and subsequently I was challenged to explore further in this direction.
This will help me in future to make stronger art, communicating my emotions clearer in my art and also making more unique art which is essential when aiming to one day get into a gallery.”
“The workshops are intentionally kept small with no more than 12 students. Because of the smaller class size, I was able to receive frequent feedback through out the entire class time from Prof Lieu.
Hearing the feedback Prof Lieu gave to the other participants was also beneficial and relevant to me. I learned so much in this one workshop.”
