What are your mentoring goals?
Mentoring for art school
Preparing a portfolio is confusing and overwhelming. With a job or school commitments, you don’t have the luxury of time.
Save time and find out what truly makes your portfolio stand out.
Get into your dream art school
An outstanding portfolio happens with mentoring. Don’t risk your portfolio being average.
You’ll create accomplished pieces and gain skills other applicants don’t invest in. Show admissions that you have gone above and beyond.
“Prof Lieu comes with an amazing depth, domain knowledge, as well as rich professional experience to understand a student’s need quickly, follow the student’s style and idea, and guide with encouragement and keen points to inspire the student tremendously.”
Learn from a veteran art school professor
I have over 25 years of teaching experience at top art schools in the US, including Rhode Island School of Design, Wellesley College, School of the Museum of Fine Arts, and more.
I have an accomplished exhibition history, have provided my expert opinion for NPR and the Washington Post and won grants like the Massachusetts Cultural Council. See my curriculum vitae here and see my bio here.
“Prof Lieu’s instruction has been remarkable — enriched with concrete detail, actionable advice, and encouragement for a budding artist.”
“We feel super lucky to have found Prof Lieu to help us in a critical time and were really appreciated to receive her coaching and achieved a great improvement in such a short time.”

Ensure a polished presentation
Many portfolios have good work, but lack a professional presentation. One poor photo with bad lighting can make or break your portfolio.
Mentoring ensures your portfolio is polished, and every detail is comprehensively addressed.
Level up your skills
Your genuine voice can’t come through if you lack skills. Rigorous drawing skills, 3D, and color schemes are not common in portfolios.
Be the exception and show that you’ve got the discipline art school demands.

Mentoring for professionals
Being an artist is hard and confusing.
You’ve dutifully watched all the videos, and yet no matter how much time you invest, nothing is moving the needle.
When your sales and social media are stalling, and you have no clue how to meet collectors, it’s easy to feel discouraged.
See results you’ve been dreaming about
You’ve seen low effort art sell like hot cakes, while you’re spending 15 hours on a piece that is barely seen.
Other artists are landing gallery exhibitions left and right, while you are struggling to even contact a gallerist.
Mentoring lifts those frustrations with manageable steps. You’ll see that with the right information, social media isn’t overwhelming, and that you don’t have to be an outsider to galleries.
Cure your imposter syndrome
You’ve probably told yourself that you’re not “good enough” to sell your art, to approach galleries, or apply for a job.
In professional development situations, no one cares about your oil painting skills. A professional presentation and understanding of industry standards is what gets you the job.
You’ll gain confidence as an artist and know exactly how to prepare your materials with mentoring.
Work with a seasoned pro
For over a decade, I have mentored artists on all areas of professional development.
Artists I mentor see their sales increase, exhibit at galleries, build a robust social media following, get into residencies, and win grants.
I have insider knowledge on how museums and galleries work, and have connections with curators, collectors, art dealers, and gallerists.
I have over 25 years of teaching experience at top art schools in the US, including Rhode Island School of Design, Wellesley College, School of the Museum of Fine Arts, and more. See my curriculum vitae here.
