About Len

Len Collins

Artist. Designer. Creative Coach.

I’m Len Collins — and I’ve been making, designing and supporting creatives for over 35 years.

I’ve worked across industries as a print, web and mobile designer specializing in user experience (UX) and accessibility. I’ve exhibited fine art nationally and internationally. But the most meaningful work I do today is helping other artists and designers find their voice again — and feel confident using it.

From Stuck to Studio is about just that: guiding you through the messy middle. Whether you’re unsure what’s next or you’ve stopped creating altogether, this space is here to help you reconnect with your creativity and take action — with support, not pressure.

I designed and built this website myself — every detail, from layout to typography, reflects my approach to thoughtful, accessible design. All of the artwork featured throughout the site is also mine, created over the past decade as part of my personal and professional art practice.

Being Creative is My Anchor

Art has always been my therapy. It’s where I’ve processed life, grief, change and everything in between.

Through that time, I’ve shown my work in three successful solo exhibitions as well as many group shows. My most recent, solo show was held in May 2025, titled:

After the Fall by Len Collins
ESCAPE — Life Happens. Art Heals.
A collection of encaustic paintings exploring emotion, movement and reflection through layered wax, heat and form.

That show reminded me — again — that creative work isn’t about perfection or productivity. It’s about being present. It’s about feeling. And sometimes, it’s about simply showing up with whatever you’ve got.

That’s the energy I bring to my coaching.

Getting stuck isn’t a failure — it’s often the start of something new.

Let’s Talk

If you’re an artist or designer who’s feeling lost, blocked, or unsure how to move forward — I’ve been there. And I’d love to help you find your way through.
