Before You Buy
-
Our programs are designed for anyone who has an interest in exploring art on a deeper level, from beginners who have started developing their artistic skills through to established professional artists.
You do not need to have formal qualifications or an art degree. You may be self-taught, have studied art formally, work as a professional artist, or simply be someone who has been practising art and wants to expand your creative understanding.
To get the most from our programs, you should already have some basic experience with art and an understanding of fundamental techniques such as drawing, painting, composition, and working with different mediums. Our programs are not designed to teach foundational technical skills; instead, they focus on expanding the way you think about art, developing your creative approach, and exploring deeper artistic concepts.
If you are completely new to art and have not yet developed basic skills or experience, we recommend first building your foundation through practice, traditional art education, or guided learning. Once you have developed some experience with art, we would be delighted to welcome you into the To Write Art community and support your creative journey.
-
You should be comfortable:
Creating artwork in at least one medium (paint, pencil, digital, sculpture, etc.)
Understanding basic composition and design principles
Completing open-ended creative tasks independently
Working without step-by-step technical instruction
-
Any program. They are designed to be explored individually, in any order. Choose based on what interests you most:
Perception — If you want to explore how emotions, senses, and personal experience shape creativity
Non-Human Art — If you are drawn to nature, spirituality, technology, and forces beyond human control
Art Intersections — If you enjoy puzzles, codes, systems, and philosophical challenges
There is no 'correct' starting point.
-
Yes, but we do not recommend it. Each program is designed as a 12-month journey with monthly tasks. Doing multiple programs simultaneously may dilute your focus and reduce the depth of your engagement. However, if you prefer to work this way, you are free to study as many programs as you like.
-
The content is identical. The difference is format:
PDF Download Only: Delivered digitally within 24-48 hours. You can print it yourself, view on devices, and access it anywhere.
Hard Copy + PDF Bundle: Professionally printed and bound book delivered via post (Australia: 7–14 business days.
Overseas: Delivery times vary depending on the destination. Please allow additional time for international shipping.) All hardcopy purchases also include a PDF version delivered within 24-48 hours.
Choose based on your learning preference. Some students prefer physical books for annotation; others prefer digital flexibility.
-
Yes. You are permitted to print ONE copy of the PDF for your personal use. You may not reproduce, distribute, or share printed or digital copies with others.
-
No. You can complete all tasks using materials you already have or prefer to work with. The programs give you complete freedom to choose your mediums — whether that is traditional (paint, pencil, clay), digital (Photoshop, Procreate), experimental (found objects, photography), or anything else. We do not prescribe specific materials.
-
Yes, with parental or guardian consent. If you are under the legal age of majority in your country or region, a parent or guardian must review and agree to our Terms and Conditions on your behalf, and sign the Legal Consent Form before you begin.
-
Yes. International students can purchase our programs.
-
Our programs are designed for mature learners aged 16 and above. The content includes complex philosophical concepts, open-ended tasks, and topics that require emotional maturity and independent critical thinking. Students under 16 may find the material challenging or inappropriate for their developmental stage.
Support & Feedback
-
No. At To Write Art, we do not evaluate, critique, or provide feedback on submitted artworks. This is not an oversight — it is a deliberate and carefully considered decision rooted in the philosophy of our programs.
External judgment, even when well-intentioned, shapes what artists make and how they think about their own work. Over time, artists begin creating for the evaluator rather than for themselves — adjusting, second-guessing, and editing their instincts to meet someone else's expectations. This is precisely what To Write Art is designed to move away from.
Our programs are built on the belief that the most valuable voice in your creative process is your own. The self-evaluation framework embedded within each topic exists for exactly this reason — to develop your ability to assess your work honestly, professionally, and independently, without needing external validation to confirm its worth.
When you submit your artwork to To Write Art, you are not seeking approval. You are sharing your journey. And that is something we receive with respect, not judgment.
However, when you choose to share your work publicly on our platforms (Instagram and website), you may receive feedback from other students and platform visitors through comments and engagement. This peer feedback is organic and community-driven, not provided by To Write Art staff.
-
Self Check-In responses are reviewed confidentially by To Write Art staff at the end of your program to provide a personalised evaluation summary. This summary offers insight into your creative patterns, time management, and growth areas — but it is not ongoing feedback during the program.
Participation in Self Check-In is optional.
-
While To Write Art does not provide a dedicated community forum or feedback system, students who choose to share their work publicly on our platforms (Instagram and website) may receive feedback from other students and platform visitors through comments. This creates opportunities for you to:
Receive diverse perspectives on your work from fellow students and viewers
View how students from different cultural backgrounds interpret the same tasks
Exchange ideas and insights with other participants
Build connections within the creative community
Public sharing is entirely optional. If you prefer to study independently without external feedback, you can keep your work private.
-
We provide:
Support with questions about program topics, tasks, program structure, logistics, technical issues, or administrative matters
The opportunity to ask questions and discuss your interpretations, creative directions, and ideas through our optional Zoom discussion meetings (available from 2027)
Weekly Self Check-In reminders (if you register)
A Certificate of Completion for submitted work
Artwork sharing on our platforms (with your consent)
A public platform where students can view each other's work and engage through comments (entirely optional)
While To Write Art is designed to encourage independent creative exploration, we understand that questions and discussions are an important part of the learning process. Students are welcome to reach out whenever they need clarification, support, or a different perspective on a topic or task.
We do not provide traditional art classes or teach students how to create specific artworks. Instead, our support focuses on helping students engage with the ideas, concepts, and creative thinking behind each topic and task.
About The Programs
-
Lifetime access for personal use. Once you purchase and download your program, it is yours to keep and revisit indefinitely. We recommend backing up your files to ensure you do not lose access.
-
You can pause anytime. These are self-paced programs with no fixed deadlines or expiry dates. Take as much time as you need — whether that is 2 months, 2 years, or somewhere in between. Life happens, and your creative journey should move at a pace that feels right for you.
-
No. Twelve months is the recommended timeframe based on completing one topic per month with 3-5 weeks per task. However, you are free to work faster or slower depending on your schedule, energy, and creative process. Some students complete programs in 8 months; others take 18 months. There are no deadlines.
-
Yes. You may skip any topic or task that does not resonate with you. While the topics are numbered and follow a logical structure, you are not required to complete them in order. This is a self-directed program — you choose your path. That said, each topic is designed to contribute to your overall growth, so engaging with the full program is recommended where possible.
-
Conceptually challenging, but not technically difficult. The programs require:
Emotional maturity and self-reflection
Ability to work with abstract, philosophical concepts
Comfort with open-ended tasks that have no 'right answer'
Independent thinking and self-motivation
If you need structure, step-by-step guidance, or clear 'correct answers', these programs will frustrate you. If you enjoy exploration, ambiguity, and discovering your own meaning, you will thrive.
-
To Write Art offers self-directed programs designed for independent learners who enjoy exploring ideas, developing their creative thinking, and working at their own pace.
From 2027, we will be introducing optional Zoom discussions for each topic and task across all three programs. These small group sessions will have a maximum of 10 students and will provide an opportunity to discuss the topic and task, share creative directions, interpretations, reflections, and ideas, as well as ask questions and engage in thoughtful discussion with other students.
These sessions are not traditional classes, art lessons, or mentoring. We do not teach students how to make art or provide technical instruction. Instead, they are designed as a space for students to explore concepts, exchange perspectives, and deepen their understanding of the creative process.
-
Yes. Once downloaded, you can access the PDF anytime, anywhere, without an internet connection. This is one of the reasons we chose PDF format over an online platform.
For students who prefer a physical format, we also offer hard copy versions of our programs. This allows you to study from a printed copy, make notes, and engage with the material in a more traditional way.
-
If, after spending time exploring the topic or task, you are still finding it challenging, you are always welcome to contact us at towriteart@hotmail.com. You are welcome to reach out as many times as you need throughout your program. We aim to respond between Monday and Friday during Melbourne, Australia business hours.
You are also welcome to join one of our Zoom discussion meetings, where you can discuss your questions, interpretations, and creative ideas with other students.
-
