My name is Jamie Smith and I am an artist, teacher and community builder living and working in beautiful British Columbia, Canada.
A long time ago I went to art school and left without a clue about how to make a living from my work. Over the past ten years I have been learning how to make a living as a creative. I believe the world needs more creatives embracing entrepreneurship and making their dreams a reality.
Here on Skillshare, I have created my classes to cover business skills, self-care and art making (all the things I care about most). So thank you for being here!

MY ART- I draw in pen and ink. My work incorporates personal symbols in an attempt to reckon with the fragility of life, new beginnings, the passage of time and the depths of loss. See my artwork here.
Let's do the work- together!!
