Welcome to the Artist Soul Mastery Academy
Ready for the next level of your art career? Listen to what these artists had to say:
“I began the program unsure of myself and feeling like I wasn’t progressing with my artwork. I felt “stuck” and really wasn’t sure why. Jessica was able to help me identify and process my mental roadblocks…I became more productive, addressed and minimized self sabotage, and aligned my artwork with my authentic self. I developed more security and confidence in my abilities and worth as an artist, and learned priceless business tips which allowed me to boost my art sales. Jessica is kind and nonjudgemental yet still gave me enough of a push for me to get out of my comfort zone. I can’t recommend this course enough—this program really changed my relationship with my art in the best way possible!”

Why are these artists seeing results so fast? Here’s how the program works…
You always had it in you.
Through 12 paradigm shifting trainings, you’ll go through an elevated transformation from the inside out: identifying the blocks to your success, ways you sabotage yourself, and limiting beliefs that hold you back from stretching into the fullest version of your artistic self that the world needs.
You will together create a personalized pathway in your art career to help you achieve your clearly articulated goals and dreams, by identifying high-level opportunities and creating a step by step method to help elevate your work from the inside out to match the career level you'd like in the art world.
Not only that, but I'll also guide you in taking control of your art career by nurturing a dedicated collector list. This is about fulfilling the highest calling within your art and stepping into the person you've always wanted to be!
Does this sound familiar?
You are a dedicated artist, but after all the time you've spent on your art, you're starting to feel a bit depressed with the lack of traction you are seeing in your art career. You get into the studio to work on your art because you're supposed to, but your eyes glance to the huge stack of unsold work in the corner, and you wonder why you're doing this. You dream of the day when your work is selling, you're being invited into exhibitions, and being celebrated in the press...but it seems so far away, that tears of frustration come to your eyes. Things seem stalled. You don't lack the heart or talent, but are at your wit's end with how to make your passion into a thriving career.
Now imagine this instead…
You walk into your studio and look around with love, knowing that this little kingdom of your art is under your command. You are its master and creator.
You walk over to your latest work in progress and feel totally alive and purposeful as you dive into creating . Your mind buzzes with happiness and fulfillment, knowing that you have the power to create the career of your dreams.
The opportunities coming to you, sales beginning to happen, and forward momentum you are feeling are the proof you needed to know that it was all within your reach after all—once you transformed your beliefs about what was possible for you from the inside out! You're clear about the purpose of your art, and the importance of art in culture.
You are now confident that you have something beautiful and worthy to offer, and others are finally sitting up to take notice!
Feeling stuck? Fellow artist, I’ve so been there!
My name is Jessica Libor, and I'm your guide to help you step into who you were meant to be in your art career!
I'm an artist, professor and curator, and I'm passionate about helping artists let go of their limiting beliefs and soar to fulfill their potential!
If you’re feeling stuck, I know exactly how you feel, because I've been there in my artist career. The turning point came a few years ago when I finished painting for the day in my studio and couldn't hold back the tears. I ended up sobbing on the floor of my studio and feeling totally powerless to make anything happen in my art career. I felt stuck, and the markers of success I saw my peers experiencing seemed so out of my control. After letting it all out, I couldn't feel any lower. But something changed in that moment. I made the decision to seek help.
I had been trying to figure it out on my own, but wanted to accelerate my growth.
I started taking courses, hiring coaches, reading books, and going into a journey of fearless self-discovery to uncover what was holding me back from the success I wanted as an artist.
I realized that the world was only reflecting back to me my own uncertainty and feelings of unworthiness.
I started to do the inner work by changing:
An attitude of victimhood to an attitude of empowerment.
Seeking approval to giving value with an attitude of worthiness.
Breaking my word to being the authority in my life and keeping my promises, especially to myself.
Procrastinating work to holding myself accountable and finishing what I start.
Doubting things can change to taking strong steps of faith in the direction of my dreams.
A student's secondary posture (Do you like it?) to a being a presence of authority about my work (This is great!)
Avoiding rejection by passing on great opportunities to applying for what I wanted to experience, and getting accepted!
Speaking of my career with frustration, to speaking of my career with pride and confidence.
Getting bitter about being passed over, to genuinely feeling excited for other's success!
Devaluing my work, to holding the work I do as sacred and worthy of full payment.
Fear of being seen in the world, to fearlessly sharing of my essence.
When the inner world changes, the outer world follows suit.
When I started changing the inner attitudes, I started seeing huge external shifts. The traction and happiness I felt inside me started to be mirrored in everyone else around me.
I had a big solo show where I sold 11 pieces, was featured on podcasts and art magazines, and had 2 galleries ask me to show with them in NY and California...and had a show in the Hamptons!
It was a breakout year that all began from me doing the world shifting work of changing my inner attitudes.
In my 3 month signature course, Artist Soul Mastery Academy, I help artists like you realize your full potential by dismantling any negative beliefs, getting clear about what you want, and creating structure and strategies in your art practice that will support the realization of your dreams.

Along the way, you’ll learn about the practical, nitty gritty on sales techniques for artists, hosting open studios, website design, and more.

The Method
We are getting you from frustrated and stuck in your art career to experiencing forward momentum, clarity and confidence in your artwork with my signature Path of Worthiness Method. We do this by creating an authentic body of work grounded in worthiness, aligned with your truest self, and technically your best yet, while at the same time transforming your inner beliefs about what's possible for you from the inside out.
Here’s a breakdown of the steps in the Path of Worthiness:
Step 1 : Taking Ownership
Releasing the pain of victimhood and taking complete ownership over your life. You'll step into living your life feeling like you're in charge.
Step 2: Your Soul’s Theme
Letting go of trying to make work that appeals to everyone or is general. You hone in on the subject that sets your soul on fire and give yourself permission to focus on only that.
Step 3: Uncovering Your Heart
You'll release any shame associated with making work that truly expresses who you are, and step into a more confident version of you who is able to uncover your heart in your work so that it will touch others.
Step 4: Giving From Abundance
Letting go of trying to GET approval or accolades from anyone or any institution, you flip the switch in your mind and begin thinking in terms of all that you have to GIVE to the world in your art.
Step 5: Innovating From the Subconscious
Releasing perfectionism and the stuck feeling of working on pieces forever, we will move into innovation and trusting the creative impulses within you to create with freedom!
Step 6: Your Optimum Studio Schedule
Letting go of procrastination, you will move into a professional artist's schedule, customized and optimized for your life and practice!
Step 7: Dive Into Flow
Releasing halfhearted attempts at making art, you will learn what creates the state of Flow, how it elevates the art you make, and specific ways to make sure you get into flow every time in the studio.
Step 10: Anchoring in Your Why
You'll let go of any beliefs that art isn't important, and step into a new worthiness in your profession by learning your own WHY for your art, and for the existence of art in general in society!
Step 8: Constructing a New Identity
You'll let go of your old identity from your past and construct a detailed picture of who you want to be going in to the future! Then, you'll decide to start living as that new self in very specific ways!
Step 11: Embracing Your Fullness
Releasing playing small for good, you'll be transformed into embracing your full expression of creative genius in your art career!
Step 9: Focus
You'll release the limiting beliefs around a lack of focus, and instead learn new positive thoughts to affirm your deep focus and work ethic. We will learn specific techniques on increasing focus so you can get more done in less time!
Step 12: Expanding Exponentially
Expanding Exponentially: walking away from your past of not believing in yourself, we step forward into a bright new future with a clear pathway to achieving the goals for art you've set, while being grounded in a new confidence and unshakeable worthiness!
Along the way, you will be creating a new body of 10 artworks that mirrors your transformation, and be guaranteed a spot in an Era Contemporary Gallery group exhibition.
In just 12 weeks, you will have transformed your feelings about your art practice and be living as your most aligned and focused self as an artist. You'll have 10 new pieces that are your best yet, and a newfound confidence that is unshakeable because it's built from within. You'll show up in life and professional settings as the highest version of the artist you are, which will result in open doors.

You check your email and a warm feeling glows around your heart as you open an email from a collector telling you how much she loves her new piece from you. She's interested in buying another!
You head into the studio, feeling peaceful and centered. You light a few candles and put on your most inspiring music, then get to work. You know your work matters to the world and it's your sacred duty to fulfill your destiny. You smile as magic flows from your paintbrush onto the canvas to create your masterpiece. When you get the mail, feel excited as you open up to a magazine interview of your work!
In the afternoon, you confidently apply for an opportunity that feels right for you, and then head out to dinner with friends at your favorite restaurant in town. Since selling more pieces lately, you've been treating yourself more and feeling good about it!
You fall asleep that night feeling in charge of your artistic career, and that you're spreading your wings a little more each new day.

You got questions? I got answers!
I don't have enough time for a program like this, but I still want the results! What can I do?
You can get more done in an hour of focus than in a week of distraction. Time blocking, creating an ideal schedule and being in flow ( which we dive into! ) allows you to get more done than you ever thought possible in a short amount of time. I was able to complete 12 huge realistic paintings in a month that got me into an MFA program while working a 25 hour job—you can do this! The question is, are you willing to stretch yourself in order to get the results you want in your one and only life on this earth?
I'm a starving artist and don't know if I can afford this!
Traditional art school is on average $30,000 a year and does not typically offer practical, career support for artists, and DEFINITELY does not offer a safe environment where you can transform your inner beliefs about yourself and your art so you are equipped to go out and conquer the world. In this course, I “teach you to fish”, offering you the mental hacks to be self-affirming and strong in your art career, while teaching you practical ways to advocate for yourself and own your creative essence. If taken as seriously as a college course, this 3 month course is a small investment in comparison that will transform your results from the inside out.
I don't know if I'm ready for this in my work!
That's totally ok. This program is for artists of all abilities, and as long as you have the career goal of being a professional artist, I will meet you where you are. Skills are easily learned, but it is the internal mindset shifts that will make or break an artist's career. At whatever stage you are at, this course can help you be transforming and aligning your art practice with your truest desires from the inside out!
What if it doesn't work for me?
The only way that the course doesn't work is if you don't do the work. If you show up for the sessions, do the homework, and apply the concepts, you will absolutely see a huge shift in your art practice, including opportunities opening up to you, more artwork sales, more attention on your work and greater confidence and clarity in your art practice. If you show up consistently you will exit the course OWNING your art career!
Do you offer refunds?
No. In order for this program to work, you have to be 100% invested! If you know you've got an out to avoid doing the program and leave, it would not be serving you in getting the most out of it! I am investing in your growth as well, and I won't make it easy for you to make excuses for yourself! And I know that once you start the process and begin to see powerful results and forward momentum full of clarity, creativity and confidence, you'll only want to keep going!

Step into being the artist
you were meant to be.
Don't let another year go by just thinking about it without taking action steps. When you say “maybe later” or “next time,” it's a huge energy drain and signals to the world that you're content staying where you are in life. By not stepping forward into your full genius you are depriving the world of the best version of you and your art that it needs, and will likely keep you stuck on a hamster wheel of dabbling in your dreams as more months fly by. Don't let this happen! Seize the day and let's make the time really count.
All the success and impact you've dreamed of as an artist is what you deserve, or you wouldn't desire it!
Saying yes to yourself today is an immediate signal to yourself and the world that you are ready to uplevel your art career and presence from the inside out, and a commitment to yourself to step into the artist life you've dreamed of!
It's time to believe in yourself, value your dreams and apply today so you can start transforming into the fullest version of your artistic genius! The world needs who you will become.
