14 Weeks to a Whole New You
This Proven Program Has Helped Over 10,000 People Finally Create the Art of Their Life - And Now You Can Too
Ten years ago, a small group of artists took a chance on a simple but radical idea… That everyone has the capacity to make powerful, personal art. That talent has nothing to do with it. That becoming more yourself is the key to making the art of your life.
That idea became
The Creative Visionary Program.
A decade later, thousands of artists from around the world have gone through CVP. Many of them come back every single year, because the growth never stops.
The world’s #1 most sought-after art training is now open for its 10th year. The 2026 Creative Visionary Program is an online learning experience designed to show you how to make the kind of art that only you can. We believe everyone can make great art. Especially you.
Thousands of people, all over the world, have used this program to put their art careers in full bloom
Their art careers are in full bloom. They are making money, selling their art in galleries and online, healthier and happier than ever, making art full-time, and for some, simply making art a bigger, more joyful part of their lives. But what moves us the most, is that they now know, what we believe beyond a shadow of a doubt, they are Artists. Anyone can be. You can too. And CVP will make you a great one.
Introducing the 2026
CVP Creative Dream Team
The Art2Life Creative Team
Nicholas is the founder of Art2Life, a platform that helps people discover and ignite their art using a new approach to creativity and life.
He is also a practicing fine artist. His paintings are seen in yearly gallery exhibitions, International Art Fairs, and are included in numerous private and corporate collections in the United States and Europe.
Nicholas speaks and writes extensively on the process of creativity, inspiration, and purpose in art and life.
Marjorie was a jewelry artist for 10 years before returning to painting in 2011. She has found expression in her artwork through several mediums including encaustic, oil and cold wax and most recently acrylic painting. Her work has always been inspired by nature: organic forms, currents, flow, cycles, seasons, land, water, sky, and the living things that dwell in those spaces. It is about color, line, texture, nature – seeing the world from a different perspective and finding the sweet spot that lies between abstraction and realism. Marjorie is a CVP alumnus and member of the Art2Life coaching team.
Kate’s work balances between representation and abstraction, drawing inspiration from the natural world while seeking something beyond it.
“I call these paintings Soulscapes — landscapes from within, shaped not only by observation but also by memory, ancestry, and feeling. Light and colour have always been central to my practice but this shift towards painting from the heart has opened up a more fluid and expressive language — one that carries both roots and wings.”
Kate, who lives near Cambridge, England, is a graduate of Edinburgh College of Art and also spent some time at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Strasbourg and at Central St Martin’s in London.
Kate is a CVP alumnus from 2018 and a member of the Art2Life coaching team.
Nadine Johnson is a Calgary-based abstract painter whose work grows from layers of color, collage, and lived experience. She paints intuitively, letting memory, place, and personal history guide the process, a slow unfolding where each mark influences the next. Her paintings draw from the things she carries with her: florals, prairie horizons, old fences, family stories, and the quiet textures of remembered places.
For over 20 years, Nadine has been immersed in painting, studying, experimenting, and showing her work. A major shift came in 2020 through CVP, where her understanding of design, value, and visual language clicked into place. That experience helped her refine her voice and trust the layered, intuitive way she was already working, eventually leading to gallery representation, awards, and a deeper commitment to teaching.
Community is a vital part of Nadine’s practice. She is passionate about helping other artists grow, stay curious, and stay connected. Whether she’s coaching online with Art2Life or teaching workshops, her work and teaching share the same heartbeat: an invitation to explore, listen closely, and to follow what feels true.
Insa is a German painter trained in Italy working in the intersection between painterly realism and abstraction. Her works explore the tension between painterly gestures and the abstract structure of shapes. She works from direct observation from where she delves into the exploration of relationships between color and shape. Her interest is to go beyond the pure representation of the image.
Insa is a graduate of painting of the Academia di Belle Arti in Italy, Bologna and holds as well a degree in art therapy. She is the founder of the course platform My Art Academy.
Insa is one of the first CVP alumni from 2016 and Academy member since the beginning. She is a guest teacher for CVP.
As an abstract artist in Northwest Connecticut, Tom works primarily in acrylics, mixed media, and collage. His paintings are grounded in a sense of belonging and the paths we travel throughout our lives. The concepts of home and relationships are very important to him and are often depicted with meandering, intersecting lines.
He has both a studio practice and a teaching practice. He participated in the now-discontinued GOLDEN Artist Educator Program from 2019 to 2025.
Ellen Dieter, a California and Hawaii based artist, lives, eats and breathes art. She paints daily in her studio, and in plein air on occasion. Born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, Ellen studied at the Cooper School of Art and The Cleveland Institute of Art, after which she moved to France where she continued her studies.
Since 2007 she has committed herself to a daily practice, using both abstract elements and representational figures,
Ellen’s focus is on relationships. Her bright palette and graphic style are folkloric and whimsical to offer a joyous and unvarnished view of the world within and around her.
Dieter has exhibited and is collected in galleries and institutions all over the United States, Mexico and Europe.
Guest Teachers
Adam Rosendahl is a globally recognized facilitator, experience designer, music curator and the founder & CEO of Late Nite Art, a science-based method that breaks down barriers, and in 90 minutes, builds the connection and collaboration that normally takes months (or even years) for leaders and teams to create.
He works with the world’s top executives and organizations to create transformational leadership and team development experiences that impact and inspire tens of thousands of people across 17 countries. He believes in the power of art to transcend cultural, generational, and professional divides, and uses art, music, and dialogue as a vehicle to help people get out of their head, drop into their heart, and disrupt their routines. He lives in the Oakland hills in California.
Amy Brakeman Livezey is a figurative artist. She began as a filmmaker but later followed the call to paint. Her paintings are explorations of history using paint, photographic finds, pieces of paper old and new, and a variety of tools to build up and then mine the images for a fresh look at the past. Layers and abstraction serve as an homage to the complexity of this endeavor – the chaos of the moment and our ever-changing cultural perspectives.
Amy is a CVP alumnus and a member of the Art2Life coaching team.
Bibby Gignilliat is a Sausalito, California–based mixed media artist creating bold, layered contemporary collage paintings from found materials—childhood letters, wallpaper fragments, vintage ephemera, and street-foraged billboard scraps gathered during travel. Her vibrant abstract works are rich with texture, color, and story, transforming everyday remnants into art that feels energetic, joyful, and alive. Bibby calls her process “a dance between putting down, letting go, covering up, and beginning again”—a practice of risk experimentation, imperfection, non-attachment and discovery.
Bonny is a North Yorkshire based, globally renowned coloured pencil artist, specialising in creating realistic pet portraits.
As a proud mum to three very lovely (and sometimes very naughty) dogs and one very calm cat, she knows how important our pets are to us.
She wants to help other pet lovers around the world remember their much-loved animals forever, with a lifelike portrait that can be kept and cherished for years to come.
Brad Davis has been drawn to art since childhood, continuously finding new ways to express his creativity. His artistic journey led him to painting and assemblage sculpture, where he explores diverse mediums such as paint, paper, wood, and metal. Each piece he creates develops its own distinct style, shaped by his intuitive approach to materials and composition.
Inspired by nature, Davis incorporates the vibrant hues of reds, oranges, and yellows found in the natural world. The rich textures and organic forms of the landscape influence his work, allowing him to capture its beauty and dynamism in both painting and sculpture.
Doug Hammett is an artist and performer whose work thrives on spontaneity and discovery. Born in Pasadena, CA, he holds a BFA from the University of Redlands and an MFA from Art Center College of Design. His creative process is guided by intuition, allowing abstract forms to evolve into magical creatures, vivid narratives, and immersive theatrical experiences. Whether painting, illustrating, or performing, Doug embraces the unknown, trusting that each piece will reveal itself over time.
His projects, such as the book “How Color Created the World” and the tarot deck “Journey of the Bearded Tarot,” exemplify his organic approach to storytelling. In theater, Doug lets costumes, props, and improvisation shape his performances, crafting dreamlike, psychologically charged narratives. His work balances logic with intuition, inviting viewers into worlds that are both surprising and deeply engaging.
Gordon Studer’s earthy, confident abstracts are rooted in his discipline as an award winning commercial illustrator, lending his work a strong, graphic cadence. His paintings speak to liminal experience and interstitial time, with deliberate black forms set against a palette of ochre, sky blue, and crushed clays. The result evokes dreamlike spaces held in restraint and intention.
He studied fine art at Penn State, later teaching at the California College of the Arts, and built a 25 year career telling visual stories for Fortune 500 corporate clients and major media outlets. That background remains evident in his work, where he applies a clear intentionality, delivering on a specific narrative while inviting the viewer into a purposeful encounter.
Based in Sausalito, California, Studer once experienced a bout of complete amnesia, an event that refreshed his perception of the natural world and deepened his exploration of imagination, dream, and recollection.
Judy Tuwaletstiwa is a visual artist, writer and teacher. Her work resides in private and museum collections nationally and internationally.
After earning Degrees in English Literature from U.C. Berkeley and Harvard University, she discovered the power of visual art to connect us to the deepest part of ourselves. She has spent her life exploring and expressing this, using different media.
As a teacher, she helps people explore their unique creative vision.
Nino Yuniardi is an abstract artist and designer based in Seattle, WA, whose work blends spontaneity and structure — intuitive marks layered with thoughtful composition, inviting viewers to pause and feel something real. Born in Indonesia, he discovered painting at age 14 as a private refuge before building a career in graphic design and user experience, shaping visual languages for major tech products in Seattle. In 2018, he recommitted to his art practice, working primarily with acrylics, pencils, crayons, and pastels, drawing inspiration from food as a metaphor for human connection and inclusivity. He is the recipient of multiple awards, including 1st Place in the 2020 Art2Life International Juried Art Exhibition, with work featured in publications like Uppercase Magazine and The Jealous Curator. He runs Nino Studio in Seattle’s Pioneer Square and leads Spice Art Club — because for Nino, art meets you where you are, reminds you of who you are, and invites you to keep going.
Scott is a highly specialized organizational and human development coach who teaches how to translate the hidden and often misunderstood world of the unconscious into the cutting edge world of human and team development.
Using simple and accessible techniques, Scott teaches you how to navigate the incredible complexity of being human. Not only does he understand the struggles of our internal and external lives in a rapidly changing world, but also he shows you how to bridge those often-opposing forces to work together in a groundbreaking way.
Here’s a glimpse into your future, from the ones who took CVP last year:
- I went from a person who did art to being an artist.
- I went from painting in a cupboard to building my own huge studio.
- I went from a horrid job to making a full-time living as an artist and teacher.
- I went from being unhappy and unfulfilled to having an amazing life.
- I learned that I can make art that is personal and unique to me, I had no idea how to do that.
- I think for the first time I found it’s ok to be myself.
- I made more art this last year than the past 10 years combined.
- 2 years ago I sold 2 paintings. This year I sold 18.
- I’ve fallen in love with my art.
"This program changed my life, my marriage and my friendships. It changed everything."
- CVP ALUM
What This Means For You

- You will save a lot of time, learning more about what makes great art than they will ever teach you in just 3 months.
- Alumni say that CVP quickly pays for itself with the first painting sold and an increase in sales, paying for it many times over, for years to come.
- Your art will dramatically improve in a very short time.
- You will stop wasting time struggling with your art, trying to find your way by yourself.
- You’ll get on the path to your true purpose in life THIS YEAR. No more waiting, no matter what your age. It is never too late to become you.

- Once you get into to your first year of CVP, every year after is just $497. It’s no secret, we have thousands and thousands of people across the globe who sign up every year because it keeps them and their work growing, becoming deeper, richer, more intriguing and more vibrant.
- You will be held at every stage of your journey with gentle teachers, the most warm and loving community and be given the keys to doors inside yourself that will change you and your art forever. Artists universally say that their art education was very tough, here they all say they can’t believe how fun it is and how much simpler it is to understand what makes great art great.
- You will have an entire year to play in the library of resources Nick and the Creative Team will give you. If you’re busy, like the rest of us, know this: the doors only open once a year. Give yourself the time and space to take it all in at your pace. It’s all good.
- We call Artists the Brave Ones. Artists have to look within to make great art. It’s an inside job and has most of us struggle with our inner critic and perfectionist and it chips away at our confidence. CVP will give you your confidence back. You will crave your studio time and this practice. No more avoiding your art. It’s time to fall in love with it.
- You’ll get inspired again. There is nothing more inspiring that making art with friends. Everything is easier with artists by your side. And these ones send us words like “Unbelievable! Gobsmacked! Shocked! Amazed!” daily.
- We will let you borrow our two strongest beliefs: Everyone can make great Art and There’s nothing but money in art. Imagine what this would be mean for you!!!
CVP does more than just strengthen your art…
It will also help you show up more authentically and boldly in almost every area of your life.
You will learn to:
- Elevate your art to a new level of depth, impact, and meaning—even if you’re not sure what you want to say through your art just yet.
- Overcome the feelings of self-doubt and paralysis that keep even the best artists stuck and playing small.
- Establish a creative rhythm you can’t wait to dive into every day—one that feels inspiring, exciting, and joyful.
- Consistently, see your work through to completion instead of getting stuck in frustrating creative dead ends.
- Reduce Stress and Anxiety in your Life. Yep, the Science is in. Making art extends your life and makes living it less stressful.
- Integrate your art-making and life so that you’re living in full color… every day.
There are only a few things in life that I know for sure. Here are three.
Anyone can make powerful, personal art.
Talent has nothing to do with it.
Becoming more YOU unlocks everything— better art, relationships, work, and life. Everything.

"Everything about my life has changed in just 3 months."
“After 5 years of stumbling around, feeling lost and lonely, I am making art that feels like me and that I love…I am connected to other artists, and I am even able to help people who are a little bit further back on the road than me.I am so excited about my future. I came into CVP tired of myself and of my work. Now everything is different. I am excited. I see nothing but possibility ahead.”
Louise Fletcher
"This is the kind of art show I’d been waiting for for 20 years!"
“After joining CVP, I’ve had two international solo shows, and at my first one, more than half the work sold in the first week. People were buying work before the doors even opened at my second show. It was the kind of show I’d been waiting for for 20 years, and there is no way it would have happened without the decision I made to join CVP.”

Here Are Some Questions That Will Help Make Your Decision
Yes, and we have built 2026 with exactly that in mind.
Most participants spend about 6 to 8 hours per week engaging with the core teaching. That includes watching the weekly video lessons, completing the art practices, and joining the live calls. If your schedule allows for that, you are in great shape.
But life happens. That is why this year we have introduced the CVP Essential Path, a streamlined track that highlights the most important lessons and practices each week. If time ever feels short, these are the ones to focus on. They will keep you connected to the heart of CVP and moving forward with clarity, even during your busiest weeks.
Here is what one of our students had to say about finding time during CVP:
“One of my fears before clicking the enroll button was… would I really have time? Would I get the value out of the course? The answer is absolutely yes. I would finish a 12-hour shift and come home, go into my studio, my dining room table, and just put something on the canvas, or watch a quick video from the program, or visit the portal. Even the busiest person can find 20 minutes to do something. It doesn’t have to be a grand thing. But often, that 20 minutes turns into something more, and much more progress than I was expecting.”
And remember, you have 12 months of unlimited access to the entire program portal. Every live call is recorded. Every lesson is on demand. There is no pressure to consume everything in real time. CVP meets you where you are.
Please don’t let the fear of falling behind stop you from enrolling. It is one of the most common reasons people hesitate, and it is also one of the least necessary.
Every live call is recorded and added to your portal within 24 hours. Every video lesson is available on demand. The CVP Essential Path is there to guide you to the most important content each week so you always know where to focus.
And with 12 months of access, you have a full year to revisit, rewatch, and go deeper on anything you want to return to. Many of our students tell us that some of the most valuable moments in CVP happened when they circled back to a lesson months later with fresh eyes.
CVP is designed to fit your life, not the other way around.
Please don’t wait. A week away will not derail your experience, and next year is a long time to put your art on hold.
With 12 months of access to every lesson and call recording, a vacation simply means you pick up where you left off when you return. Many of our students have traveled during CVP and found that being away from their regular environment actually deepened their inspiration and brought fresh energy back to their work.
Enrollment only opens once a year. If CVP is calling to you, this is your year.
The 2026 Creative Visionary Program runs from March 19th to June 30th, 2026.
Here are the key dates to know:
- Access to the CVP portal and community is available upon enrollment.
- March 16th, 2026. Orientation Call #1 at 10 AM PT.
- March 17th, 2026. Orientation Call #2 at 3 PM PT.
- March 19th, 2026. CVP Welcome Call at 12 PM PT. The program officially begins.
- March 20th, 2026. BLOOM Journaling Immersion Call with Nicholas, 9 AM to 12 PM PT.
- June 30th, 2026. Final Group Call and program close.
After the program ends, you retain full access to all modules, video lessons, call recordings, audio files, and transcriptions for 12 months from your enrollment date.
This is exactly where CVP does its best work.
A lack of confidence is not a reason to wait. It is a reason to start. The self-doubt you are feeling right now is not a reflection of your potential. It is simply what happens when you have not yet been given the right tools, the right community, and a clear path forward.
Here is what Louise Fletcher had to say about where she started:
“If I were to tell you how CVP changed my life, it would take all day. Quick summary. Went from painting in a cupboard to building my own huge studio. Went from a horrid job to making a full-time living as an artist and teacher. Went from being unhappy and unfulfilled to having an amazing life. And the most important thing of all. I learned that I can make art that is personal and unique to me. Back then, I had no idea how to do that.”
Louise did not arrive at CVP with confidence. She built it there. You can too.
Not at all. CVP is not a program about abstract art. It is a program about your art.
Whether you paint abstractly, representationally, or somewhere in between, the Art2Life Principles apply equally. Design, Value, Color, Texture, Risk, and Soul are not style-specific. They are the underlying principles that make any great painting great, regardless of what it looks like.
We have had abstract painters, landscape artists, portrait painters, illustrators, and mixed media artists all go through CVP and come out the other side making stronger, more personal work. The style is always yours. CVP just helps you go deeper into it.
CVP was built for artists at every level, and beginners thrive here.
Many of our students say that starting with CVP gave them an enormous advantage because they built their practice on the right principles from the very beginning, rather than spending years unlearning habits that were holding them back.
Here is what Gwynne Penny experienced as a beginner:
“Before CVP my art felt small, tight and suffocated. I was in a job that I had started to resent and I wanted so much to be an artist but it felt out of my reach. I had big gaps in my technical knowledge. My first CVP was genuinely transformational. One of the paintings that I made during the course sold that year, and another straight after. I’m now a full-time artist.”
You do not need formal training, a defined style, or even a studio to get started. You just need curiosity and a willingness to show up. CVP will take care of the rest.
More than you might expect.
We work with professional artists, gallery-represented painters, and art school graduates every year who tell us CVP filled gaps they didn’t even know they had. The Art2Life Principles give you a new language for understanding and diagnosing your own work, one that goes beyond technique into the deeper territory of authenticity and voice.
Many of our advanced students find that CVP doesn’t just improve their art. It reignites their relationship with it. If you have ever felt your work becoming formulaic, or found yourself going through the motions in the studio, CVP will remind you why you became an artist in the first place.
It is a fair question and one worth answering honestly.
Here is what Michele Murphy had to say after going through the program:
“I went from a person who did art to being an artist. CVP changed my art but more importantly, my relationship with art. It’s a life changing course. Worth every penny. Do it. Really do it. Nick is 100% worthy of your trust.”
And Kimber Scott:
“This online class was a game-changer. Yes, it was expensive. Yes, I hesitated before taking the plunge. But hands down, it really was the best art class I’ve ever taken and worth every damned penny for the therapeutic value alone. And it was 14 weeks long which actually made it a bargain.”
Consider what you are comparing it to. A single year at a private art school costs $40,000 to $55,000. A 2-year MFA runs anywhere from $60,000 to $120,000. Our alumni consistently tell us they learned more about what makes great art in 14 weeks of CVP than in years of formal education.
CVP also pays for itself. Alumni regularly report that the first painting they sell after CVP covers their investment, with sales continuing to grow from there as their work becomes stronger and more distinctly their own.
And for 2026, you are backed by our 1-Year Satisfaction Guarantee. Do the work. If your art has not meaningfully grown and transformed within 12 months, we will give you your money back.
CVP 2026 is available at the following investment options:
- Best Value. A one-time payment of $2,397. Save $249 by paying in full.
- 6-Month Plan. 6 monthly payments of $437, for a total of $2,622.
Additional payment options are available at checkout through PayPal, Afterpay, and Klarna.
We have updated our guarantee for 2026 to give you more time and space to experience the program fully.
We are giving you an entire year. Complete the program. Show up to the live calls. Do the work. If, within 12 months of genuine engagement with CVP, you don’t feel your art has meaningfully grown and transformed, submit your work and we’ll give you your money back.
We only want those who are a HELL yes. And we stand behind this program completely.
Please note that refunds are only available to students who complete the full 14-week program and submit the required documentation outlined in our terms and conditions. The refund amount will reflect your full investment minus the retail value of any physical bonus items sent upon enrollment.

CVP will change your Art and Life forever. We guarantee it.
Learn what no one teaches in Art School.
Our alumni unanimously say this program is more valuable than their undergraduate or graduate art degrees. You will learn far more than just the technical skills required to be a successful artist. In 14 weeks, you’ll become more you and make the art only you can make.
"So many things have unlocked for me."
“Since CVP, I’ve been in a group show almost every month, had my first solo show, and had my work published by the American Mathematical Society. My paintings are now part of the permanent collections at Seattle University and Rochester Institute of Technology. So many things have unlocked.”
Juliet Fiss
"Before CVP, I felt lost."
“Before The Creative Visionary Program, I felt lost. I was struggling to find my artistic voice. Through CVP, I not only discovered that voice but learned how to amplify it, which led to a profound shift in my work and my confidence. CVP not only enriched my art but propelled my career forward, enabling me to establish a studio, venture into teaching, and prepare for an upcoming gallery opening.”
NADINE JOHNSON
"I quit my full-time job!"
“I quit my full-time job, I have my first solo exhibition coming up, and I’m now running creativity workshops for women who don’t think they’re artistic at all. CVP really changed my life. And I still had my full-time job when I did it.”
Mandy Galbraith
"I identify myself as a fine artist now."
“Every time I painted I knew that this was what I wanted to do. Moving into being an artist is daunting. With CVP I could feel the learning curve and the acceleration of learning more than any other educational thing I’ve ever done. The program took me back to my roots when I was young as a kid. I identify myself as a fine artist now.”
GORDON STUDER
"You’ll learn who you are, not just in art, but in life."
“Before CVP, I thought of painting as creating a product. Now I think of art as a process, a way of being, a way to grow and learn who I am. You won’t just learn about color, value, and design. You’ll learn who you are and who you want to be, not just in art, but in life.”
Chantal Tomiello

I am the founder of Art2Life and the Creative Visionary Program. I’ve been an artist my whole life. I believe we are all artists and that everyone can make great art.
I’m here to help as many people as I can to know themselves through art.
I discovered how to truly thrive as an artist when I started to help others quickly overcome what took decades to learn.
I will gently show you the way so that you can make amazing art, sell it, be around other artists, and live a life that makes you feel alive.
It’s time to fall in love with your art and your life.
