Intuitive Composition is designed to help artists create "their own unique art". You'll see me work as I discuss intuition and composition while the course also has a strong focus on assisting artists listen to their inner guide, creating "their work" while learning to strengthening their design sense. I paint in several videos so you'll see me creating while I discuss and demonstrate. I am doing so in order to share with you ways of tapping into your own creative being while giving you heaps of information to help you understand composition in your art. Teaching you techniques & tricks about materials is not my goal or focus. I teach and support "you" to listen to your intuition and to paint "from and like you" while making stronger and more authentic art.

You can take this course from any vantage point or amount of experience. As a professional artist, I am always learning more and bring these expertise into the Intuitive Composition Course. There are seasoned artists that have taken this course (even more than once) that rave about it. On the flip side, an artist took the Intuitive Composition Course, just 3 weeks after receiving her first paint set. She absolutely loved the course and shared it was the perfect jump starter for her art practice. ICC is packed with potent and vital content for creatives alike.

While you are enrolled in the course, I will be addressing artists' questions in the Thinkific Question Space in each Module in the weekly Q&A Zoom Calls. This is the best place to ask questions ensuring that responses are shared with all the artists as we often have similar questions. The Q&A space is easily accessible in each Module.

Sure! The Intuitive Composition Course starts Friday Jan 5, 2024 at 11am PST with a Welcome & Get Acquainted Call. Participants will receive access to the weekly Call link. This & all following Q&A calls will always be at 11am PST Fridays. This call will be recorded & uploaded to the platform for members to re-visit or to catch the recording if they missed the live call. The course is delivered in video & text form and weekly calls are Q&A so don't worry if the call time doesn't fit in your schedule. You will still gain access to all the content you need, including the call. Calls are 1 hour unless there are no questions. Then it's a brief 15 minute check-in. Module 1 is released Saturday, Jan 6, 2024. That is one day after the Welcome Call. Things are set up this way so participants have enough time prior to the first module to review preliminary Set-Up content. There are several videos within each Module, often a downloadable document, exercises or assignments. You are able to go through ICC content as many times as you like. These videos can be viewed at your convenience and have adjustable listening speeds. Modules are released one a week. There are BONUS lessons included as well. BREATHE week happens after Module 6 Hope that provided answers for any other questions you had.

Once the ICC start date is active, Jan 5, 2024 you have 9 months to use this course material, ending Oct 6, 2024. Plenty of time to go at your own pace and spread your process across the calendar but succinct enough to stay committed to developing your creative intuition and art practice. If you found & started ICC, your 9 month access will be adjusted to ensure you have the same time to use the content as those who started Jan 5, 2024. : )

I hear you! I love art materials too! I think we artists all adore them. You will absolutely discover more about materials in this course. To remain focused and on task I share about materials while I use them or later in another video or module. I work very intuitively and grab what feels right, often sharing the why. I provide a general material list of "should-haves" but I encourage artists to use what they have already and not get distracted by specific supplies. As you know, our materials are not how we create amazing art. We are. : ) I encourage artists with material questions to crowd-source in the Facebook group as I remain focused & dedicate my teachings on Intuitive Composition. I also provide a broad material list once the course starts for you to search your faves.

Things should be pretty turnkey but in the event that you have any technical issues with Thinkific, Facebook, Zoom, Stripe or your computer, I always suggest you restart your device, ensure you've logged in properly, and your apps have been updated. If the trouble persists, consult my handy Tech Lessons in the NEED TO KNOW Section. Anything that doesn't get resolved should then be dealt with by your own technical support person or corresponding company help-line on their websites. Unfortunately, I am not an expert in any of these fields.

Well, I would be sad. But if you're really unhappy with the course, just email me before Module 1 is complete - that is within 6 days of the official start date (Jan 5, 2024) to get a full refund minus processing & transaction fees. If you found ICC late & start after the official start date of Jan 5, you will still have Module 1 to make your decision. Since the course releases each week, you'll see more content available, however, if you proceed & go beyond Module 1, the refund will not longer be valid or on offer.

I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have that are not addressed here. Send me an email at [email protected]. If you don't hear back from me, please come back and review the FAQs in case you missed the answer here.
