If you purchase a Downloadable Guide, 5-day Mini-Course, 8-day Mini-Course, Self-Study Program or a Masterclass, instructions on downloading the course or getting started shall be provided immediately. Due to the nature of these products, once purchased, they are non-refundable.

THE 4-FIGURE MONTH GAME PLAN GUARANTEE - LIVE VERSION

Jessica is confident that any artist with a body of art to sell (valued at $1000 or more) who follows this step-by-step plan to the letter will have their first 4-figure month in 30 days or less!

How do you know if your art is worth $1000 or more? Don't worry; we have you covered!

Jessica has seen time and time again that artists chronically (and drastically) undercharge for their art. So inside the 4-Figure Month Game Plan, we've included a robust pricing exercise to help you see the true value of your work and make those sales.

If you're newer in your career and taking this workshop to learn the foundational skills your art career requires... or have never sold a piece of art… And therefore might not have art valued at $1000 or more yet…

Jessica is confident you'll sell your first piece within 30 days by following this step-by-step plan. We're so confident that you'll get our famous "No Starving Artist Guarantee," and after 30 days of following our 30-Day Action Plan, if you haven't made back at least $500 OR sold your first piece of art (depending on what stage of career you're at)... We'll refund the full cost of your ticket!

This game plan works; to get to the gold, you must take action on the plan!

If you completed all the course content (as evidenced in your 3 Workbooks)... Attended or listened to the replay of the Masterclass... And posted according to the 30-Day Action Plan on at least one of your Social Media channels...

And after 30 days, have yet to sell your first piece of art OR make at least $500 (again, depending on what stage of your career you're in), we'll refund your investment in the program.

KEEP YOUR ASS IN THE STUDIO - LIVE VERSION

The Unstoppable Artist Guarantee
Solely applicable for clients of the Keep Your Ass in the Studio Program (2023 onwards)

Jessica is confident that any artist who has studied their craft (meaning that you are skillful and savvy with your chosen materials) and completes all 12 weekly lessons… While showing up to ask for the support and coaching you need… Will create a coherent body of 3 - 8 new pieces that feel distinctly your own and wildly authentic by the end of this 4-Month Mentorship.

Keep Your Ass in the Studio has been designed specifically with painters, illustrators, photographers, mixed media artists, animators, textile artists, designers, sculptors, craftspeople and those working with social practice in mind.

Jessica has seen, time and time again, what happens when an artist finally understands what’s stopping them internally and combines this with inspired action in the studio. The result? Their creative flow is activated, and wildly authentic art pours out of them.

Inside Keep Your Ass in the Studio, you get everything you need to create a coherent body of work, including a 4-month Step-by-Step Action Plan with Artist-Designed Course Content… Monthly Accountability… Weekly Mindset Strategies…a Thriving Community of Like-Minded Artists… 3 LIVE Community Coaching Calls a Month with Jessica... And SO much more!

We’re so confident you’ll love this program that you'll get our famous "Unstoppable Artist Guarantee."

1) THE UNSTOPPABLE ARTIST GUARANTEE FOR ESTABLISHED ARTISTS

Jessica has built a step-by-step process into the program that helps you identify your specific goals, including how many pieces it makes sense for you to complete… Based on your own pace, medium, scale and working style… So you can set goals that you consistently achieve.

And if, after 4 months of completing all the program content (as evidenced in your Keep Your Ass in the Studio Workbook and online Program Portal)... Attended or listened to at least 75% of all Group Coaching Calls... And asked for help in our Facebook Group monthly ...

If you haven't made at least 3 new pieces of art, we'll refund the full cost of the program!

Keep Your Ass in the Studio works, and to get to the gold, you must take action on the plan!

2) THE UNSTOPPABLE ARTIST GUARANTEE FOR BEGINNER ARTISTS

If you're newer to art-making and taking this 4-Month Mentorship to learn the foundational skills your studio practice requires... And are not yet confident with your chosen mediums, Jessica is certain that you’ll have the creative breakthroughs and sense of confidence you need to create your first piece of art that feels authentically you, faster than what feels possible now... And that you'll have the tools you need to maintain a consistent studio practice.

If, at the end of 4 months, you haven't made at least 1 new piece of art that feels wildly authentic, we'll refund the full cost of the program!

3) THE UNSTOPPABLE ARTIST GUARANTEE FOR ARTISTS WORKING IN OTHER MEDIUMS

We also understand that most performances, animations, books, or installations require more than 4-months to complete, and we respect that process.

If, after completing all the program content (as evidenced in your Keep Your Ass in the Studio Workbook and online Program Portal)... Attended or listened to at least 75% of all Group Coaching Calls... And asked for help in our Facebook Group monthly ... And you haven't completed the amount of work you decided you would during Lesson 2 of the program (I.e. a certain number of chapters, songs, or amount of progress on your performance) after following Jessica's step-by-step process for identifying how much work you can realistically create during 4-months... We'll refund the full cost of the program.

Please know that “The Unstoppable Artist Guarantee” guarantee only applies to artists whose work results in tangible objects.

BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN

OUR FAMOUS THRIVING ARTIST GUARANTEE

Established Artists

If you're at the stage of your career where you already have a solid reputation as an artist among art critics, art buyers, galleries, and other stakeholders in the art world, have exhibited in, or are represented by leading art galleries and art museums... and have received national and international recognition, we’d consider you an ESTABLISHED artist!

Jessica has built artist-friendly, step-by-step processes into the accelerator to help you identify your specific objectives — including where you’d like to take your art next… how many pieces of work your next Unparalleled Body of Art requires… the kind of mind-blowing and paradigm-defying exhibition you want to create… And a viable plan for a sustainable career with multiple income streams — all based on your own pace, art, audience and working style…

So you can create a career that satisfies you creatively, spiritually, professionally and financially.

Jessica knows that even with a long list of successes on your CV, financial stability and authenticity can still feel like an on-and-off love affair, which is why, even if you’ve received regional or national recognition, but know that something is still missing, you’ll create an Unparalleled Body of Art that feels more true than anything you’ve created, have a successful solo show that redefines what a solo show is, and create a plan for financial stability (based on one or more income streams), and gain the tools you need to create a fulfilling and lucrative art career, on your terms.

But…

If after your first 3 months of completing ALL the accelerator content (Trimester 1, as evidenced in your BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN Trimester 1 Workbook and online Program Portal), attending or listening to at least 75% of all Group Coaching Calls, and asking for help in our Facebook community monthly...

You haven’t broken through to the next level with your Unparalleled Body of Art or feel that you’re on your way to completing it, we’ll refund the cost of the accelerator (minus any payment processing fees).

Your Unparalleled Body of Art often feels deeply like the work you know you were born to make — it’s an expression of your purpose on the planet and is entirely singular in its unique message and style… something only YOU could create.

We know that sometimes, your Unparalleled Body of Art will take more than 3 months to complete, but if by the end of Trimester 1, with the completion of the accelerator content, you still don't feel like you've tapped that vein, we’ll refund the full cost of the accelerator (minus any payment processing fees).

And if, after 12 months of completing all the accelerator content (as evidenced in your BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN Workbooks and online Program Portal), attending or listening to at least 75% of all Group Coaching Calls, Inner Circle Sessions and Expert Masterclasses, and asking for help in our Facebook community monthly ...

IF you haven't made an Unparalleled Body of Art, as defined above…

IF you haven’t had a successful solo show, unlike anything you’ve created before, with a room full of your ideal collectors and a body of well-priced art — a show that gets press coverage and the specific feedback you want…

IF you aren’t set up with a viable financial plan for one or more income streams and have achieved your financial goal (don’t worry, BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN will help you decide on a big and exciting but achievable goal).

We'll refund the full cost of the accelerator (minus any payment processing fees)!

Because we know that BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN works, you must take action to get to the gold. We’re willing to put our money where our mouth is.

Please know that “The Thriving Artist Guarantee” guarantee for established artists only applies to artists whose work results in tangible objects. If you create Intangible or Non-Salable Objects, please see the section below.

Emerging & Mid-Career Artists

If you're in the early stages of your career and taking this 12-month accelerator to learn the foundational skills required to build your own epic art career and create an independent body of work, OR you’ve created an independent body of work over a number of years and had a significant number of solo shows and/or group exhibitions (and perhaps turned your process into a salable product!), we'd consider you an EMERGING or MID-CAREER artist…

Whichever camp you’re in, Jessica has built easy-to-follow, step-by-step processes into the accelerator to help you identify your specific objectives — including how many pieces of work your Unparalleled Body of Art requires, the kind of exhibition(s) you want to create, and the amount of money you’d like to make — all based on your own pace, art, audience and working style… so you can set goals that you consistently achieve.

Jessica is certain that even if you are just starting your journey to exhibiting your work in group and solo shows (emerging), OR have exhibited your work but haven’t yet received regional or national recognition (mid-career), you’ll create an Unparalleled Body of Art, have your first (or tenth!) successful solo show, receive public recognition for your art, achieve the financial goal the accelerator will help you set, and gain the tools you need to create a fulfilling and lucrative art career.

You haven’t made an Unparalleled Body of Art or feel that you’re on your way to completing it, we’ll refund the cost of the accelerator (minus any payment processing fees).

IF you haven't made an Unparalleled Body of Art, as defined above…

IF you haven’t had at least one successful solo show, with a room full of your ideal collectors and a body of well-priced art — a show that gets press coverage and the specific feedback you want…

IF you haven’t received public recognition for your art — depending on what you create with your exhibition — and achieved your financial goal (don’t worry, BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN will help you decide on a big and exciting but achievable goal).

We'll refund the full cost of the accelerator (minus any payment processing fees)!

Because we know that BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN works, you must take action to get to the gold. We’re willing to put our money where our mouth is.

Please know that “The Thriving Artist Guarantee” guarantee for both emerging and mid-career artists only applies to artists whose work results in tangible objects. If you create Intangible or Non-Salable Objects, please see the section below.

Artists Who Create Intangible Or Non-Salable Objects

We understand that many artistic processes, including performances, animation, book writing, and/or installation, do not qualify as salable objects and, therefore, require alternative funding models.

If that’s your zone of genius, listen up!

If you enroll in BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN and after completing ALL the accelerator content (as evidenced in your BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN Workbook and online Program Portal), attending or listening to at least 75% of all Group Coaching Calls, Inner Circle Sessions and Expert Masterclasses, receiving support with your Grant Application from our Artist Support Team, and asking for help in our Facebook Group monthly…

And you haven't received 50% of the funding your project requires through grants, crowdsourcing or alternative funding strategies…

We'll refund the full cost of the program (minus any payment processing fees)!

Please know that “The Thriving Artist Guarantee” guarantee for both emerging and mid-career artists only applies to artists whose work results in tangible objects.

Because we’ve seen BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN work for ALL KINDS of artists (if they’re willing to take action)… so we’re willing to put our money where our mouth is.

—

*We define an artist who has BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN as one who has created an Epic Art Career on THEIR terms, based on a business model that works for them and reaches their ideal audience, clients and/or set of collectors all across the globe… be that through social media, in-person international events, or from the comfort of your home.

BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN RESOURCE LIBRARY

Our Famous Nothing’s Gonna Stop Me 100% Refund Guarantee

If you're in the early stages of your career and using this Resource Library to learn the foundational skills required to build your own epic art career and create an independent body of work, OR you’ve created an independent body of work over a number of years and had a significant number of solo shows and/or group exhibitions (and perhaps turned your process into a salable product!), we'd consider you an EMERGING or MID-CAREER artist…

Whichever camp you’re in, Jessica has built easy-to-follow, step-by-step processes into the Resource Library to help you identify your specific objectives — including how many pieces of work your Unparalleled Body of Art requires, the kind of exhibition(s) you want to create, and the amount of money you’d like to make — all based on your own pace, art, audience and working style… so you can set goals that you consistently achieve.

Jessica is certain that even if you are just starting your journey to exhibiting your work in group and solo shows (emerging), OR have exhibited your work but haven’t yet received regional or national recognition (mid-career), you’ll create an Unparalleled Body of Art, have your first (or tenth!) successful solo show, and gain the tools you need to make back your investment on the program and build the foundation of a fulfilling and lucrative art career… if, of course, you complete all the lessons.

But…

In the case that, after 9 months of completing ALL the Resource Library content in sequential order (as evidenced in your BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN Resource Library Workbooks and online Program Portal)...

You haven’t made an Unparalleled Body of Art or feel that you’re on your way to completing it (your Unparalleled Body of Art often feels deeply like the work you know you were born to make — it’s an expression of your purpose on the planet and is entirely singular in its unique message and style… something only YOU could create)...

And, you haven’t had at least one successful solo show, with a room full of your ideal collectors and a body of well-priced art — a show that gets press coverage and the specific feedback you want…

And, you haven’t achieved your financial goal (during the last 3 months of the program, you’ll focus on earning back a minimum of what you invested in this program)...

We'll refund the full cost of the Resource Library (minus any payment processing fees)!

Because we know that the BECOME INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN Resource Library works, but you must take action to get to the gold. That’s why we’re willing to put our money where our mouth is.

*Please know that “The Nothing’s Gonna Stop Me Artist Guarantee” for both emerging and mid-career artists only applies to artists whose work results in tangible objects.
