Not having a community or a safe space was something I really lacked on my own journey. Through building The D Collective, I've learned that we get more from giving.
Through taking leaps, managing diabolical projects, hiring my first full-time staff member and a lot of mistakes — it allowed me to become clearer on what I needed. I've combined everything I know to bring you The D Collective: a community and resource designed to uplift, inspire, and guide creatives on their journey.

Your start date can be whenever you are ready. The initial payment is paid upfront and then your first monthly instalment comes out 30 days after your start day.
There is a 6 month minimum term. The initial payment grants you access to the community and your first month free.
The coursework is there for you at all times, to work through at your own pace. The first course is 'The Business of Art' with around 8 modules — slides, Dee talking to camera, and tasks you can do whenever you can. There is no time limit or pressure to tick it off.
The weekly Q&A with Dee and the direct access to her in the community is the best way to navigate your circumstances.
Minimum 4–5 hours per week to get the most out of your membership.
Unfortunately not the slides and videos, but you will have all the assets and downloadable tasks that are provided.
Your creative community.
The D Collective Artist Community is open to every creative. Connect with hundreds of artists, join weekly sessions and grow your practice — start with a completely free trial.
