#Expanding upon my 2.5 hour “Critical Analysis and Application of Style” lecture on IAMAG, this mentorship will be an in-depth and personalized look when it comes to the topic of style. Over 5 weeks, I will be your mentor to aid you towards optimizing your artwork’s aesthetics for your artistic goals, otherwise known as “style”.

##Each week, there will be a lecture portion discussing a key topic when it comes to style, expanding on the concepts discussed in my IAMAG series of videos. There will be an assignment each week, adjusted to cater towards your goals. By the end of the mentorship, you would have been exposed to new ideas on how to improve your work and have the tools to further develop your work as you continue the lifelong journey of art.

### I will act as a mentor, teaching important lessons on analyzing art, research and bringing them to your work. I will act as a consultant, giving advice on how best to approach your style and what to improve on.

## Most importantly, I will act as a fan by asking the tough questions.

## While technical aspects will be discussed, they will be the means to the goal: creating the right mood, atmosphere, aesthetic and message no matter what subject matter you prefer. The full breakdown of the 5 week program can be seen below.
