Hello, I am Monika Astara.
"You have no creative bone in your body!
God must have been asleep when He created you!"
That's what my art teacher told me for 6 years.
You most likely have your own version of this in your life.
It might also have hampered your creativity for a while - like it did for me. So I became a teacher first.
I was teaching in public schools, community colleges and in a prison.
But after 10 years my passion for artful expressions won.
I took the plunge - and have been a full time, successful artist and art wear designer since 1987. Selling to high-end wearable art boutiques and galleries and in my own boutique.
From the very beginning I have always come up with my own fast, playful unconventional methods.
My teacher wasn't a fan of them.
But my clients say that they haven't had this much joy and happiness. And that they haven't seen most of the methods anywhere else.
I look forward to meeting you - and guiding you to create in ways that boost your confidence and light you up!
What makes Monika Astara Studio different?
Monika's proprietary methods and patterns. And her Golden Key method to create with sustainable joy.
They are original, unconventional, super simple and playful.
You can create art and clothes that are totally, uniquely YOU. So your eyes can light up like stars in the night sky.
The Golden Key
If you're experiencing the common ups and downs of feeling blocked and being happy while creating, then you'll love the Golden Key.
It allows you to create with a flow of sustainable inner peace and joy.
You can even apply the Golden Key in daily life situations.
It works for making bumps smoother, having more energy and having more fun!
The Golden Key has a special section in the Creative Joy Course.
However, it is also applied in all the courses.
You can even sit and create in your recliner and for parts of the Course!
Lynn Edmonds about the Creative Joy Course:
"I thought I was quite relaxed.
But this is taking it to a whole other level...
...AND - you can apply the same principles in everyday life.
I've even tried them when I was in the gym.
With zero motivation.
It WORKS!"
