Independent Study

1:1 Independent Study with Dr. Craig Havens
Find Direction & Completion in Your Creative Practice

Your mentorship has been invaluable in helping me find my footing and start to develop a clear vision for my work. From our earliest conversations, your insights opened my eyes to new ways of seeing and approaching…Your mentorship has been a gift. – Elizabeth S.

For photographers and artists seeking personal attention, dialogue, and progress. Sessions are live, interactive, and tailored specifically to your creative practice — not pre-recorded or automated.

From discovering your creative vision to building a professional practice, expanding technical skill sets, developing a web presence or portfolio, or advancing an ongoing project — the possibilities of personal mentorship are extensive.

This cycle includes:

  • A personalized study plan shaped around your needs, goals or current projects
  • Guided review of past and current work to clarify direction, patterns, and next steps
  • Three 1:1 sessions over a 3 Month period (1.5 hours each)
  • Light, ongoing feedback between sessions
  • Recorded archive of Live Sessions with Private Password access
  • Focused personal development over a three-month period
  • All sessions are arranged individually with flexibility around your schedule.

What this work supports:

  • Establishing a clear direction for your current or emerging practice
  • Collaborative dialogue about your decisions, intentions, and creative meaning
  • Developing a framework that sustains momentum and continuity
  • Deepening both the technical and conceptual dimensions of your practice
  • Building confidence through guided project development and critique

Throughout art history and into the present day, the framework of a personalized mentorship has provided a rare opportunity to work privately with an established artist on a one-to-one basis.
