We work together in real time — it’s “follow the leader” as I guide you through each step.

Real-Time Coaching—Not Passive Content
Most classes are “watch and hope.” This is “show and do.”
Gold participants receive live, interactive feedback on their form, pinning, product use, and more—during the session, in the moment.
Silver learners get structured access, guided chat, and full replays for reflective practice.

A Full Learning Arc: Idea → Execution → Feedback → Mastery
You don’t just follow steps—you learn how to think like an artist.
Vivienne guides you from pre-visualization to troubleshooting and self-critique, so you build real systems that stick.

Visual Journaling for Deeper Retention
You’ll photograph your progress as you go—capturing micro-breakthroughs and learning how to see growth with your own eyes.
It’s part education, part portfolio development, and 100% transformative.

You’ll learn to design styles that are current, elevated, and camera-ready.
