Description:
This is not a watercolor workshop. You and your greatest vision for yourself as an artist is the curriculum in whatever medium you are working in. Each of the three in-person workshops are designed to move your further along on your journey toward that vision.
What do you already know about your individual concerns and values as they define your art? Is your art as personal and unique as you would like it to be or does it feel like a generic collection of techniques and approaches without the power you seek it to have? You are the expert on what your art can be.
This creative journey begins with 6 days exploring your relationship with your art at Adamah Art Studio. Through a combination of individual critique, group discussion and art-based creative exercises, your search for personal expression will be expanded and more clearly defined. You will leave the Voice workshop with a plan for the upcoming year and return to your studio with focus, renewed motivation, a peer group, and a mentor to help keep you on track.
Who is a prime candidate for the Finding Your Voice Workshop?
This workshop is perfect for the professional who feels stale, for the amateur who wants to develop their body of work, or anyone who wants to take their art-making to a deeper, more personal level based in your own values and beliefs. You should be comfortable with at least one medium, but mixed-media artists working in a range of 2-d media are welcome. This workshop is not technically oriented. Creatives of all ages with any level of expertise will benefit the Voice workshop.
You will NOT be learning Helen Klebesadel's painting techniques in the journey workshop. Instead, this workshop is designed to help you find YOUR voice in any media. Helen will encourage you to deepen your personal understanding of your visual expressions, bringing your unique artist's voice to your art and career.
In addition to individual and group critique/discussions we will be exploring a number of creative art-based exercises designed to free up your thinking about your creative process, and to use your own life as a source that can be the bases of future explorations in art. Helen will offer exercises specific to your interests and goals.
Join us for a year long creative journey in which you will expand your artist's voice, define your goals, and create a plan of action for the future that is based in how you define success.

What is Creativity Coaching?Creativity coaching is a coaching method that helps individuals grow into their most authentic selves. The process is designed to bring the coach and the client together to collaborate on identifying and nurturing the clients’ greatest visions for themselves as creative people and/or artists. Developing creative confidence and well-being is one of the greatest contributions we can give ourselves and others. Our ability to apply our creative skills, thinking and expression in all aspects of our lives provides enormous benefits and results, especially if our chosen careers are in the arts. Creativity Coaching as a professional practice aims to help clients figure out how to articulate and nurture their creative vision for themselves, recognize obstacles, establish attainable strategies for moving toward their visions and in setting up systems of shred and self-accountability to assist them in achieving their goals. This Creativity Coaching practice is governed by the International Coaching Foundation’s professional code of ethics.
What can I expect from creativity coaching? As your creativity coach I will collaborate with you to identify your truest path for yourself as a creative. We will partner to create a relationship of mutual respect and trust built upon a foundation of confidentiality. Our initial work will most likely be to draw upon your deepest inner knowledge to articulate your greatest visions for yourself as a fully engaged creative person. Together we will work to help you identify your more immediate goal. I will support you while you figure out your next steps, whether they are toward realizing an immediate project or determining best path toward achieving your greatest vision for yourself as an artist. I am an artist, a teacher and a coach, and some of my clients may work with me in more than one capacities. It is therefore important for me to explain that there are two especially important differences between creativity coaching and teaching: the power relationship and the source of perceived knowledge. In creativity coaching I have a collaborative relationship with my clients based in the understanding that they already have within them the knowledge and abilities to articulate and work for their fullest creative potential. My job is to partner with them to help them draw out that knowledge. As a teacher, I am asked to be the expert and teach the student new knowledge and skills that they do not yet have, but need, to develop their artistic potential going forward. I’m sometimes asked to assess and judge my students’ efforts, while in coaching I don’t evaluate, I support. Helen’s philosophy is that… …we are born creative. It is what makes us human. However, our creative voices can be stymied or restrained by the circumstances of our lives. If we have lost contact with our creativity, we can find it again and use it to aid us in everything we do: from informing our decision-making and problem-solving, to arranging our lived environments to make us happier, to guiding our creative work as artists and makers. Our authentic center remains, ready to be tapped as an important resource for each of us to use to reach our fullest potential. As a Creativity Coach my goal is to help you to access your creative center in the service of achieving your greatest vision for yourself. I will support you identifying ways to reach your best creative thinking for your life, your artistic practice, and the world, because the world is not a better place without your best self being realized. Creativity Coaching can support you on your path toward expanding your creative potential for a fuller life. |

Teaching, Consulting, and Coaching: Each Serves a Unique Purpose
I an artist, a teacher, a consultant and a coach, and some of my clients may work with me in more than one capacities.

As a Teacher my goal is to help you develop skills and understanding of the mediums you choose to work in; to help you as you develop your content and the conceptual bases of your work, and to make sure you have a solid foundation in the visual language that will allow you to make artworks that fulfill your intentions.
As a Consultant my goal is to advise you on your art and art projects or to help you advance your career goals to the best of my ability. I will draw on my own experience and share with you the knowledge that I wish I had access to when I was earlier in my career,

I will support you identifying ways to reach your best creative thinking for your life, your artistic practice, and the world, because the world is not a better place without your best self being realized. Its important though, to move beyond thinking and realizing, to action toward your larger goals and vision, albeit sometimes ...one small step at a time. It can be easier to take those steps if someone is helping you remember what you really want.
