Guiding Artists To Create With Confidence and Expressive Freedom

Hi, I'm so happy you're here!

The Artist Collective is a welcoming space for artists of all styles and experience levels, offering a thoughtful space for artistic practice and connection. Whether your work leans toward painting, drawing, or mixed media, you’ll find a supportive environment designed to help your creativity deepen and evolve.

Through inspired lessons and meaningful creative practice, the Collective fits naturally into your life, with flexible ways to learn, explore, and make art at your own pace. I’m so excited to share this creative space with you and see where your work leads.

love, Renée

NEW FOR 2026

A Year of Artful Practice

Four Seasons of Creative Expression

A year-long journey into creativity, exploring light, color, and form. We’ll draw on classical foundations, find inspiration from the great masters, and let your own artistic voice lead the way.

Each quarter, we’ll focus on one subject and break it into a three-part series. This gives you time to slow down, study in depth, and explore ideas at your own pace. The seasonal rhythm helps us work with more focus and space, so we can go deeper without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.

During the year, you’ll have access to pre-recorded lessons, live Zoom Art & Chat sessions, and bonus art supply videos. If you want more flexibility, you can also take each quarter’s lessons as a separate class outside of the membership.

    Open Studio is my art diary—a space where I'll share behind the scenes in my studio, experiments, works in progress, photography, and occasional demos as I embrace my creative process.

There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique, and if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium; and be lost.
— Martha Graham

  • The Collective is a wonderful, supportive place. Renee shares lots of tips and tricks. Every month is something different. Renee publishes a beautiful magazine each month that goes along with her lessons and is downloadable -- what an amazing gift! Also, I can see a shift in my art by being more present throughout the process.
