An Artist's Mindset & Methods

🌱 Learn why you make art, not just how. In this 2.5+ hour masterclass, Josh Clare steps back from the canvas to examine the deeper motivations behind his creative practice. He shares his journey from production‑driven work to purpose‑led painting, and explores how other groundbreaking artists inspire his process.


You’ll learn how to:

  • 🤔 Reflect on your own “why” — what really motivates you to pick up the brush again and again

  • 🧠 Integrate insights from master artists into your own voice and practice

  • 🔄 Transition from creating for output to creating with intention 

  • 💪 Build a sustainable mindset for long-term growth, passion, and purpose in your art journey


Perfect for foundation-level to intermediate artists who want to deepen their creative confidence—not just by improving skill, but by strengthening the roots of why they create. 🕒 Runtime: 2.5+ hours.

Josh Clare

Josh Clare grew up drawing and was rarely without a pencil and paper, but it wasn’t until he began studying art at BYU-Idaho that he began painting. That first oil painting class included a trip to the galleries in Jackson Hole (his first visit to an art gallery or museum) and completely changed the course of his life.
Josh has been supporting himself and his family with art since 2007 after graduation and he thanks God every day for that remarkable blessing. He figures that if he can paint all day, every day, for the next 20 years, eventually he’ll paint something pretty decent.
