About.
Straight talk: I am not here to sell you some starry-eyed nonsense about “believing in yourself” or “manifesting success.” This is Blue Collar Artist Studio, not your shifty wool poncho in the summer wearing aunt’s vision board. Yes, we believe in ambition and all those lofty ideas about art changing the world, but let’s cut the crap: show business is brutal. It’s not a fair fight, and I’m here to help you throw a few punches back.
You know who doesn’t have to throw punches? Nepo-babies. Trust fund kids. People whose biggest struggle was deciding between Pilates and brunch. These are the folks dominating the industry—posting on Instagram from some set they “worked so hard” to land while you’re over here trying to figure out if you can afford groceries and your acting class this week. I see you. That’s why this studio exists.
At Blue Artist Studio, we’re about two things: getting you good and getting you real. That means not only honing your craft to a razor’s edge but also teaching you how to deal with life. Being an artist isn’t just about talent; it’s about surviving the long haul, navigating an industry that eats the fainthearted alive, and still finding joy in creation.
Our training is rigorous—think of it like boot camp, but instead of doing push-ups, you’re interrogating your instincts, smashing bad habits, and learning to tell the truth on stage or screen. I’m not here to hold your hand or throw empty compliments your way. I don’t need to tell you you’re amazing. I mean, I probably will. But I’ll make you believe that about yourself. When you walk out of here, you won’t just hope you’re ready for the industry. You’ll know you are.
Everyone loves talking about “discipline” like it’s some cute buzzword. But discipline is what gets you through when inspiration doesn’t show up. Discipline is what separates the working artist from the hobbyist. And at Blue Artist Studio, discipline isn’t optional; it’s the price of admission.
So, if you’re ready to face the reality of this business, work your ass off, and actually get better? Let’s get to work.
Do you want to unlock your potential? Great. Just know it won’t unlock itself. Choose me as your coach, and I’ll show you how to cut through the bullshit, take control of your career, and make your dreams happen—not because you “manifested” them, but because you earned them.
And as always,
remember it’s nice to be important,
but it’s much more important to be nice.
