Frequently Asked Questions
Your Questions Answered
Q: I have no prior art experience. Is this movement for me? A: Absolutely. Unlike traditional programs that require a portfolio just to get in, Think Artist believes every person has a "creative heartbeat." Whether you are picking up a brush for the first time or returning to art after years away, our community is designed to meet you where you are. We don't just teach you how to paint and recycle discarded papers and Materials ; we help you rediscover the joy of expression and the power of your own voice.
Q: I’ve already taken online art classes and didn't see results. How is Think Artist different? A: Many classes focus on copying a teacher's style. At Think Artist, we focus on Think-Artistry. Our approach combines technical skills with soulful discovery and social consciousness. You aren’t just a student in a portal; you are part of a global movement connecting creators from Derby to Nigeria. Plus, with our interactive contests and exhibition opportunities, you have tangible goals and rewards that keep you inspired and accountable.
Q: Why should I join this instead of a traditional art school? A: Traditional schools often bury you in debt and academic theory. Think Artist offers a human-centric alternative that is affordable and purpose-driven. While art schools focus on "The Gallery," we focus on "The Impact." You’ll learn how to use sustainable practices like upcycling materials to create art that matters. We provide a supportive tribe, real-world rewards, and the chance to see your work change lives in your local and global community.
Q: How do the online art contests and exhibitions work? A: We believe talent should be celebrated and rewarded. Periodically, we host themed contests where "Art-Thinkers" can submit their work to be judged by our community and mentors. Winners receive cash rewards to help fund their supplies or creative journey. Beyond the rewards, our digital exhibitions provide a platform for your art to be seen by a global audience, bridging the gap between your studio and the world.
Q: I’m busy with work and family. Can I still participate? A: Life is busy, but your soul shouldn't suffer for it. Our workshops and community are designed to be flexible. You can engage with the content at your own pace. Think of us as your "creative sanctuary" a place you come to recharge, not another chore on your to-do list. Even 30 minutes a week of "Think-Artistry" can lead to a profound transformation in your well-being.
Q: What is the "Social Ripple" I keep hearing about? A: This is what makes us unique. When you join Think Artist, you aren't just helping yourself. You are supporting a movement that brings art to underserved communities, specifically in our projects in Nigeria and youth programs in Derby. A portion of our energy and resources goes toward ensuring that art remains a tool for healing and social change for those who need it most.
