MAKE THE WORK NMFW™
For artists who refuse to let fear, perfectionism, or inconsistency decide what gets made.
We're creating a culture where making the work isn't an event
it's an identity.
No Matter Fucking What.
Being hard on yourself doesn’t make you a better artist.
It creates avoidance.
That ends here.

Do you ever feel stuck inside a pattern?
You want to show up and make art regularly. You set yourself up for success. You start making art for a few days.
And then you find yourself going right back to your old routine.
Maybe it's because you're stuck in self doubt. You're not sure what to do next with your art.
Maybe it's because you tell yourself you're not talented enough so why bother.
Maybe you're feeling fear of what other people might think.
You beat yourself up thinking something must be wrong with you.
And then you think about making art for days, weeks, months and just cannot get back to it.
I know that feeling. I know that pattern.
I've been there too.
I'm going to walk you through the exact method I've used for myself … and that I teach hundreds of other artists, so they can get out of their own way and
make the work they're here to make.
About Catherine
At 18, newly sober from a meth addiction, I picked up a camera and turned my pain into visual poetry.
It saved my life.
Three decades later, still sober, I’m exhibiting my work internationally in Milan, Paris, London, New York, and Los Angeles.
I’m a single parent to my son, Max, who has Down syndrome. He keeps me anchored in presence, honesty, and what actually matters.
I believe loving yourself and making the work, no matter fucking what, isn’t a concept. It’s a lifestyle.

FAQs
DO I NEED TO BE A VIsual ARTIST TO ATTEND?
No. This workshop is for artists, photographers, writers, makers, and creatives of all kinds. If you've been feeling stuck and want to create more consistently, you're welcome here.
WHAT IF I DON'T FEEL CREATIVE RIGHT NOW?
Perfect. This workshop isn't for people who are overflowing with momentum. It's for people who have ideas, projects, and work they want to make but can't seem to get moving on.
WILL THERE BE A REPLAY?
Yes. The workshop will be recorded and sent to everyone who registers. If you can't attend live, you'll still receive the full training.
WHAT WILL I LEARN?
You'll learn why creative blocks happen, what's actually keeping you stuck, and practical tools for getting back into motion so you can stop thinking about your work and start making it.
WHAT IF I'M TOO BUSY TO MAKE ART RIGHT NOW?
Most people don't need more time. They need a way back in. That's what this workshop is about.

“It's not just photography, it's not just personal growth and it's not just spiritual practice. It's everything. The way you share what you know changed me. For the better. Beyond what I ever expected”

Manifesto
Shame doesn't create more art.
It creates more avoidance.
It's easier to clean the floor with a toothbrush than it is to face the thing that matters.
I know.
I've lived it.
That's why MAKE THE WORK NMFW™ exists.
Not to teach artists how to become more disciplined.
But to help us stop treating ourselves like the enemy.
Because every single one of us has medicine hidden inside our work.
And medicine doesn't work if it stays in the bottle.
Art saved my life.
Not just making it.
Finding it.
Someone, somewhere, made something they never knew I'd need.
Their work found me when I needed it.
That's what art does.
It interrupts loneliness.
It reminds us we're not the only one.
We're all carrying something.
When we make honest art...
We send out proof that none of us have to carry it alone.
MAKE THE WORK NMFW™ isn't really about making more art.
It's about ending the cycle of self-abandonment.
Because every time we return to our work...
We're really returning to ourselves.
When we return to ourselves...
We naturally become more fully creatively expressed.
JOIN THE MOVEMENT
Because the world doesn't just need your art.
It needs the version of you that exists when you stop leaving yourself behind.
