Welcome to Studio XI,
Where Art Unfolds in the Moment
Embodying Your Artist
A Spiritual Art Mentorship
In my view, every human is both an Artist and a living work of Art. Our common purpose is to re-contextualize the existing, to conjure matter from emptiness. This creative and expressive impulse is everywhere: in the crafting of a meal from simple ingredients, or in our body’s innate wisdom to grow and sustain itself when given the right fuel.

More about this mentorship...
After almost three decades of embodying my artistic self and converting countless concepts into tangible art, I have arrived at a place of ease and confidence with my own artistry. I believe that one of the key characteristics of an artist is a sustainable relationship between themselves and their embodied artistic self. Over the years, I have embodied and sustained many roles: a painter, illustrator, actor, singer, animater, writer, meditation facilitator, calligrapher, poet...
and I can say with confidence that the deepest level of artistic embodiment has to start from within on a spiritual level: a healthy plant has to be aligned and strong from the roots and then all that is above ground can shapeshift accordingly.
To me, an artistic embodiment is way more than being a creative person. Instead, it is a state of mind where the definitions of possibilities soften and one's authentic expressions can fully take form.
Today, my heart is pounding to see you come to your own artistic embodiment. I believe that everyone with an impulse to express and desire to create is an artist whether they qualify themselves to be or not. Not embodying one's artist self fully can truly feel like holding in a sneeze in the middle of a speech on stage. It's distracting, irritating, and frustrating. Trust me, I know...it's just awful.
Let me ask you a few questions:
Have you ever felt that you have a thought about a project but have no idea how it can take form?
Have you ever felt that there is no place for your authenticity to take a voice?
Have you ever felt that you can barely breathe because you cannot express your truth?
Have you ever felt that it is too hard to connect with souls on a deeper level?
Have you ever felt that your anxiety and rumination hijack you before you can even think to be playful?
Have you ever felt that you are on the urge of crying at any given moment?
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, I would like to congratulate you that your newest artistic embodiment is ready to come online.
Now, if you are puzzled by how an extremely unpleasant state of being can possibly be a signal for the birth of a new artistic embodiment. This is where I come in:
I will serve as a medium between you and all that yearns to be expressed within your energetic field. I will help you identify the root of your desire, implant aligned creative structures in your consciousness, extract your artistic glimmers on a spiritual level, and show you technical steps to actualize your artist identity.
We will call upon your higher self, loved ones, and ancestors to sustain a purified space for clarity as messages are channeled. I will also serve as your ally and advocate when you navigate through this uncharted part of your map.
The skeleton of this mentorship is not a set-in-stone program. Just like for every art piece, we set an intention and the rest will unfold as your desires to create and express shapeshift and demand attention.
The Goal:
You will finally see, embody, and steward your artistry that you were given at birth in a sustainable matter so that you can fully realize yourself as the artist you are.
During our sessions, you will also have access to the wisdom from my lineage through the lens of my entire life:
- the Chinese Craftsman culture, philosophy, and spirit in Artmaking of any kind
- the wisdom behind the Chinese language (Hanzi)
- Chinese Confucian, Buddhist, and Taoist wisdom
- Chinese mystical folk culture and teachings for the people residing along the Yangtze River
- Technical abilities for drawing and painting in the styles from both ancient Chinese and Renaissance era.
I desire to hold a space of Love and Compassion with my own authenticity and presence so any artistic expressions may be secure to take form. At the end of our mentorship, I pray to have you be in a space where:
You feel more willingness to feel and express
You feel more clarity upon your artistic embodiment
You feel more courageous to share and love
You feel more excited and playful to go about your project and your art
You feel more capable to move through this world with integrity
You feel more open for all the universe has in store for you
You feel more relaxed and at peace
You feel that your lungs can expand more
…
I am here to witness, be present, and transmute anything impalpable and incomprehensible into tangible words in real time… so you may finally come to know that, at the end of the day, YOU are the most precious Art the world has ever seen.

People who are not ready for and cannot resonate with this service
-
People who do not value conversations and verbal transmissions
-
People who would like to keep their art journey as private as possible
-

How to work with me:
I offer a series of 3,6,9 sessions to work with individuals on a one-on-one basis via video calls. Each session is 60 minutes. There is no pre-determined agenda as every session is catered to the individual in real time with an intention as the guiding force. The goal is not to become the most technically skilled artist right off the bat as this is a manifested fruition of your artistic quest. Initially, the goal is always to recognize and align with your most specific and potent desire to express. Depending on the intention and the essential subject of the expression, different artistic embodiments will demand to take form.
The Inspiration Series (3 Sessions):
This series allows people to get a grand view of what it means to embody themselves artistically
The Initiation Series (6 Sessions):
This series allows people to familiarize sharing space with their artistic self and prepare themselves for a continued relationship with it
The Integration Series (9 Sessions):
This series allows people to get some ground practice with their embodied artistic self and establish a momentum with it
I am also available to work together for a 6-month and a 12-month period for a more immersive journey and a deeper practice.

Testimonial
"I felt a profound call to her wisdom as multiple expressions are coming online, in an already deep spiritual awakening. What sets Chloe and this work apart is the dedication to creative alignment at the soul level. Her wielding of artistic and intuitive knowing, like a saber of truth, draws out the inner muse with precision. I would explain how I was feeling or what I was perceiving, and she would put precise words and colour to the context. Her maturity in these spaces allowed for innocence to arise. This felt crucial as I bloom.
I felt understood, deeply seen, safe to unravel and be curious rather than critical about the expansive nature of my growing identity. I am finally calm about my natural talents, seeing my innate abilities of expression for the true gifts that they are. I was able to reclaim my love for creation from a pure place, beyond anything I have to craft into perfection for public consumption. My Art and Artist have begun to merge.
Chloe’s deep connection with intuitive gifts of all kinds allows you to truly uncover the wisdom and creative magic within you. With Chloe’s help, I have begun fine-tuning my body to the calibration of the soul-stirring transmissions I am here to deliver in new and ever-expanding formats.
With thanks and humility, I am deeply grateful and in reverence for the years of Chloe’s training, her own life experience, spiritual study and all contributing lineage that has unfolded thanks to her dedication and service. "
