What's on offer in the ICMe Mentorship

ICMe is a thriving & intimate community of ICC artists who are dedicated to advancing their work, authentically.

  • Creative Development

    ICMe is chockablock full of illuminating content, key presentations, and ongoing support for artists in your practice and art journey. Developing your unique visual vocabulary is key to authentic art making. You'll enjoy topic specific presentations as well as group discussions all within the realm of art.

  • Art Journey Support

    The goal of ICMe is to support artists in listening to their inner guide while creating their work. The journey is vast and all topics of discussion are welcome, including materials, techniques, visibility, etc. Listening to intuition, tackling design problems, dealing with the business side of things are on the table in ICMe.

  • Community Support & Sharing

    Most artists work alone so having a community of like minded souls to connect with regularly is hugely beneficial and key to our art journey. We advance and thrive more steadily when we check in with other artists, engage in discussion, brainstorm, ideate, collaborate and share. Community space is both here and in the private ICMe FB Group.

I have grown so much in my art practice since starting ICMe.

Welcome to ICMe Mentorship

Watch the video for a brief run through of ICMe.

Hear from current artists of the ICMe Mentorship:

Full Range Content: Pam

This mentorship program is brilliant. There is an incredible amount of excellent content in all arenas to keep me inspired and learning for a long time. Pauline is an excellent teacher/mentor from being able to clearly convey lots of difficult practical concepts to really listening and supporting people where they are, rather than imposing her ways. She's doing a fabulous job of providing everything from the practical aspects of learning to really great coaching support and inspiration for a much deeper and richer all around experience. There are also wonderful opportunities to share work, questions, inspirations, successes, etc. with a super group of artists from around the world. It's a great deal for a really reasonable price. Can't recommend it enough.

Sustained Support: Charley

I've been painting for five years and have take many excellent classes. Taking Intuitive Composition, however, represented a game changing step forward in my creative journey. The opportunity to continue working with Pauline gives me a place to practice what I learned in IC and ensure what I learned will blossom and grow. I trust my ICMe tribe and value each of them for their honest and caring support.

Timely Coaching - Amanda

I am loving being part of this group, you have all given me so much inspiration and Pauline you have given me so much already within such a short space of time. I felt so extremely lucky to have found you and ICC just at the right moment.

Ideas Come To Life - Elsa

I enjoy the image adjustments. Listening to the reasoning of why something was adjusted wether it was on my work or someone else’s is super helpful!

About this course

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you give feedback on our work?

    I do, however, my greatest goal in ICMe is to offer assistance in 'bringing you closer to creating the work and art practice that you are longing for'. So I have specific requirements for requesting feedback,… I want to know what you love and what you want feedback on. I'm very respectful not to impose "my" ways on artists. What you want from your art and art practice leads the way. I am here to facilitate, mentor, share best practices, coach, teach, encourage, support & cheer you on. And the community of ICMe artists play a key roll in this as well.

  • What else do you offer?

    The Artists in the ICMe Mentorship bring their art practice questions forward, whether it's about design, intuition, materials, business, you name it. It's all on the table. If I don't have the answer, I will hunt it down. Check the section here on this page listing what is on offer: The ICMe Mentorship: Support & Coaching for Intuitive Composition Artists that lists all we cover in ICMe.

  • How long do I have access to the ICMe content?

    As long as you are a member of ICMe in good standing you have access to all of the ICMe content.

  • Are the live calls and presentaions recorded?

    Yes, all calls and presentations are recorded and convenient to access when the timing is good for you. Live call recordings are made available in the ICMe Mentorship within 24 - 48hrs after the call and specific presentations are made available on specific dates.

  • What if I wish to cancel ?

    Of course we'd be sad to see you leave and hope you gave ICMe a fair shot but I do want you to be happy. Since ICMe members have immediate access to all ICMe content, there is no refund or partial refunds on the month you are in. If it's not working for you due to lack of time etc, just reach out to me. I'll check in to see how you are doing with content consumption, and possibly offer ideas on making things more turn key & manageable for you, but if it's still not a great fit, email me at least 5 days before the end of your next pay schedule that you wish to leave. Following that, do consult the section in the ICMe Index on how to leave the membership. Details on Cancellation & Refunds: • Refunding appears within 10 -15 working days • No refund or partial refund is offered on the month you are in. • Cancellation of ICMe membership forfeits all specials of extended ICC access, bonuses & special member prices.

  • Do I still have extended access to ICC2024 if I cancel my ICC Membership?

    When you sign up for ICMe after your participation in ICC 2024, you will gain access to 3 ADDITIONAL MONTHS of EXTENDED ICC2024 ACCESS. You will retain this access as long as you are still an ICMe member. If you cancel your ICMe Membership after your initial 9 month access to ICC completes, your extended access to ICC2024 also cancels. Essentially, you need to be an ICMe member during the time that you use your 3 month extended access of ICC2024.
