Reviews:
‘My industry mentoring session with Lucy was exactly what I needed to help point me in the right direction for building my resume, portfolio and brand as an artist. Lucy tailored the session to meet my needs perfectly, including spending extra time explaining how to curate my portfolio for both clients and industry professionals. I gained a wealth of knowledge in our session and was able to immediately apply her feedback to my work. I would recommend this service to anyone looking to grow their career in the industry or personal business. ‘ - Mallory
"My industry mentoring session with Lucy Martin was so beneficial for me! Lucy gave me some amazing advice along with a tailored direction of what to do next in my practice. I feel happier and more confident with my work already and I’m now feeling more inspired. I’m ready to create new work in response to our session!" - Emma
‘Having followed Lucy's beautiful designs, I felt more than ready to sign up for my 1st Industry Portfolio session via zoom. Lucy put me at ease as soon as we began discussing my lifelong enthusiasm and passion for embroidery. Her confidence and experience helped me to visualise a beautiful pathway towards my goal of creating, developing and sustaining my own textile design practice. Prior to the session, to help Lucy understand where I currently stood, I received clear instructions on how to transfer images of my work and written statements. It was reassuring to feel that Lucy would have a good idea of my style. My past apprehension, reluctance and fear all seem to dissolve as we discussed realistic ideas, good practice, time lines and future goals. Overall, the 1-to-1 session was extremely helpful and enlightening. Finally! I felt after many, many years of repeating the same old tired 'where to begin' mantra, I found my own 'design voice' through this hugely talented embroidery artist. As an added a bonus to this extremely helpful session, it was all recorded. So whenever I need a prompt, inspiration and motivation through my design journey I just press 'play'. Amazing!’ - Tessa
“Today I received uplifting and succinct counsel from Lucy on how to develop my own lucrative embroidery shop. Candid and encouraging, Lucy has the industry bona fides to look at your work and make actionable recommendations for success. Meanwhile, she is easy going and shares her methods of branding, promotion and invoicing (the real stuff!) to recruit commissions. Thank you, Lucy, for unlocking the world of freelance artistry!” - Christine
