We've built Mimochai Studio on a community-first platform experience. In one place, we can host community discussions, online classes, live events, and more. You can log in easily from your desktop, or download the included mobile app for a seamless on-the-go experience.

The entire experience is clean and modern. We also have welcome guides and walk-throughs to show you how to get started and get the most out of the platform.

Watch the video above for a tour of the platform, or find it on YouTube here! 

With your Mimochai Studio membership, you'll have immediate access to the benefits listed for the membership tier you sign up for. Our studio features a resource library, livestreams, and drawing prompts for all levels, and on-demand classes and replays for our Studio Artist membership level.

We offer both a monthly membership as well as an annual membership for the Studio Artist level. You get the equivalent of one month free by paying annually, and don't have to deal with a monthly charge. 

Everything is hosted on our own platform so it's very convenient, and there is even a mobile app to make it easy to access everything on the go.

Every month, there is (1) a new guided drawing prompt, (2) a new resource article with helpful tips, (3) a new podcast-style livestream, and (4) a guided drawing livestream. There are new posts multiple times per week.

We also produce our high-quality on-demand classes at least twice a year. 

Overall we aim to achieve a good balance of fresh new content without overwhelming our members. Our members tend to have about 20-30 minutes a day to draw or work on their creative practice.

Mimi mostly uses Procreate on iPad. She also likes to work traditionally, so she demos with both digital painting as well as colored pencils and acryla gouache paint.

That said, most of the classes and prompts are designed so you can use the medium of your choice. We have members that use ink, watercolor, and pens. Our focus is to encourage you to start with a strong foundation and then work into your own style and expression!

Here is the growing list of on-demand classes. They are now available through a studio membership (subscription) and as standalone classes (one-time purchase). 

Studio Membership is the best value for people who are seeking ongoing creative support from our community, and would like to participate in our group drawing prompts, and live events 💛

Buying an individual class allows you to watch just the classes you want, with a one-time purchase rather than a subscription. Each class also comes with basic access to our community spaces, so you can post class work, see what others are sharing, and get feedback if you want it. :) 

Skillshare only hosts our classes, and does not include our exclusive Year of Magical Drawing series. Skillshare is great if you're looking for access to thousands of other classes, including ours. You can learn guitar, how to cook, how to knit, etc. We love Skillshare for that!

Mimochai Studio is more appropriate if you are looking for community and guidance specifically from Mimi and the Mimochai team.

The main difference between the two is the purpose. Mimochai Studio is a learning community for people who are looking for creative classes, guidance, and an interactive community. It's a two-way sharing environment. 

Our Patreon is a way for people to support Mimochai's work and mission. A Patron's main goal is to support our work, not necessarily to learn from us. We thank our Patreon supporters with different perks, share our behind-the-scenes process as a company, and offer a monthly Print Club. We do not post this type of content on Mimochai Studio, unless it is relevant to a topic we are teaching.

While this is not a mentoring or coaching service, Mimi is a very active host inMimochai Studio and frequently interacts and answers questions in the community. Unlike many other communities whose main host is a distant figurehead, she enjoys responding directly to members' posts and leaves engaged feedback. For direct mentoring or advice, Studio Artist members have opportunities for 1:1 sessions. 

Yes you may cancel your membership at anytime. You do not need to email me or be asked any questions, you can manage your account on your own terms and cancel on your own. 

The remainder of your membership time will run its course and you will not be charged again. Please note we are unable to refund any prorated amount by nature of the platform. 

You are welcomed to return and rejoin at anytime! We love having our members in the studio.

Yes, we provide guidance in the member FAQ on how to move between tiers :) Basically you just cancel your current membership and switch to the one you'd like.

You made it to the end! You're the best 💛
