Hello fellow Artist,
There are so many things on your to-do list as an artist and entrepreneur and it can be really overwhelming.
You’ve probably wondered where to start, what to do next, or if you’re prioritizing the right things.
It’s so important to focus on what matters most—your artwork.
What if you had a seasoned artist’s perspective to give you thoughtful feedback and help spark new ideas to explore? Someone who has been exactly where you are and has navigated the artist/entrepreneur path successfully to find a signature style and creative voice.
This year, I’m excited to do just that for you!

Portfolio Reviews for Artists
My one-on-one reviews will deliver an empowering, positive, and inspiring experience that removes the overwhelm and helps you envision a clear path for your work.
I came away from Deeann’s portfolio review with a new vision for my work. Her perspective on where she saw my work progressing was spot on compared to where I felt it was going but couldn’t fully express. She gave me specific stylistic ideas that I could implement into my very next painting as well as others that had me desperate to order new art supplies. I highly recommend getting her advice about your artwork and art business!
Who it’s for:
Emerging artists who have at least one established body of work + some vision and ideas to discuss as you discover your creative voice.
Established artists who are longing for fresh eyes and authentic, thoughtful feedback on your work & career path.
What you’ll get:
Your Creative Voice Workbook with artful touches and prompts for you to dig deep, dream big, and set intention and focus before our conversation.
A 1 hour, one-on-one Zoom chat to dive deep into your portfolio, answer your questions, explore new ideas, and brainstorm where to go next.
We can also discuss your website and Instagram as it pertains to your process and portfolio.
After our chat, you will also receive a beautiful follow-up spreadsheet of notes from our conversation.
What you’ll need:
To send me a Dropbox folder of your portfolio containing 15+ images 2 days before your scheduled one-on-one.
To download Zoom so we can see each other face to face.
I can’t wait to see your artwork!
If you’re ready to book an appointment time, please email Deeann.
“My portfolio review with Deeann was such an awesome, life-changing experience. My work was all over the place prior to our review—I had 5 categories. By the end, I had a clarified direction and purpose. We discussed options for future work, strategized opportunities I hadn’t considered and a creative challenge was assigned to me. It changed my whole way of seeing my work and for that I will always be grateful. Doing a portfolio review was truly self care for the artist within."
A little about me:
I have pursued art as my career for 12 years and have shown my artwork in solo shows, group exhibitions, galleries, coffee shops, art festivals, and online.
After getting my BFA in painting from Memphis College of Art, I started creating work alongside working part time jobs. But a turning point came when I decided to let go of that comfort and lean in to my artwork 100%. My income doubled that first year and has continued to grow steadily ever since.
As I leaned into exploring techniques—as well as evaluating and assessing my work critically along the way—I experienced breakthroughs that led to finding my own creative voice and signature style. Today, I sell most of my work myself and have had a steadily growing income every year as a professional artist.
I believe play, exploration, and bravely pushing yourself to try new things is one of the most important and exciting aspects of being an artist.
