I help abstract artists move from frustration to clarity, so you can create paintings that feel true to you.

Living Abstracts is currently being restructured.

I’m refining the experience so I can support artists in a more flexible, ongoing way—while still keeping the depth and personal feedback it’s known for.

If you’ve been following my work or were considering joining, this isn’t something that’s going away. It’s something I’m building to work even better.

I Know Exactly How It Feels to Be Stuck in the Messy Middle

Sometimes the hardest part isn't starting a painting, it's knowing when to stop, what's working, or what's missing. That struggle to see your own work clearly? That's the Clarity Gap.

The Clarity Checklist gives you 6 specific things to check before calling a painting done—so you can slow down, reconnect, and see your work with fresh eyes.

A free week long workshop that helps you get unstuck, understand what’s missing in your process, and make clearer, more confident choices in your art.

Offered just a few times a year.

I Know Exactly How It Feels to Be Stuck in the Messy Middle

For years, I would start a painting full of energy and then somewhere in the middle I’d lose my way. I’d start second-guessing every little choice, overwork the canvas, or stop too early because I didn’t trust myself.

Finding clarity changed everything. When I learned how to bring balance and strength into my work, I stopped doubting and started finishing paintings that felt like the heartbeat of my personal choices.

So I created the Clarity Workshop to give you the same tools that helped me move from frustration to freedom in my art.

This has been an amazing workshop! I have painted for years and have not come across someone who can keep things simple and drive home the important points like Cathy can!

Dominique

The breakdown in this lesson helped me understand things in an easy manner and I feel more connected to the language of art. I was confused by others, so thank you for how you put things together.

Patricia

If you haven't take this wonderful workshop yet, you need to sign up asap. I came in uninspired and finished with so much inspiration, that I can't wait to get back into painting!

NICE TO MEET YOU

Hi, I'm Cathy a Passionate Abstract Artist & Mentor.

I know what it’s like to search for clarity in your art and to feel stuck between intuition and uncertainty, to want freedom but also need direction. So I created my signature course Living Abstracts, a complete journey that brings knowledge and intuition together so you can paint with confidence, clarity, and a deeper connection to yourself.

This isn’t just another course filled with hundreds of students. It’s an intimate learning experience where every artist is seen, supported, and guided personally. Inside our small group, you’ll get direct feedback, clear lessons, and the kind of encouragement that helps you grow with trust, not pressure. My goal isn’t to make you paint like me, but to help you paint like you, with clarity, confidence, and intention. When you understand why your paintings work, not just how, you can finally create art that feels honest and alive.
