FREE LIVE PAINTING SESSION

How do you know what your painting needs next?

Join me for an hour at the canvas as I paint and share the thinking behind my decisions.

I’ll talk you through what I see, what I choose to change, and what I leave alone, so you can begin to see what to look for in your own paintings.

What I’ll share with you

What I notice when I step back

I’ll share what’s catching my eye, what’s already working, and the questions I ask when something doesn’t feel right.

How I decide what to do next

You’ll see how I use value, variety, and color alongside my intuition to choose what to change and what to leave alone.

How I respond when it doesn’t work

Some changes won’t do what I hoped. You’ll see how I look again, reconsider, and decide where to go from there.

This is for you if...

✓ You’re ready to give your painting time and attention, and you want to know more than just painting intuitively.

✓ You’re returning to art after years away, exploring abstraction after painting in other styles, or looking to build on what you already know.

✓ You want to understand why a painting works, and how to make thoughtful choices when you’re unsure what to do next.

Come spend an hour in my studio

Hi, I’m Cathy, and I’d love for you to join me in my studio and spend an hour of painting and learning together.

Since I started painting in 2013, I’ve experienced so much of what you might be feeling... the excitement of a painting you love coming together, the frustration when it doesn’t, and the uncertainty and struggle of figuring out what to do next.

I’ve now taught close to 1,000 artists through workshops both on and offline, and helping someone begin to see and understand their own work is one of the things I love most about teaching.

During this session, I’ll share my process openly with you, including the moments when I need to pause, look again, and change my mind. My hope is that you’ll take something back to your own canvas that helps you feel a little more confident about your next step.

So grab a coffee or a cup of tea and come join me. I’d love to have you there.

Hugs,
Cathy đź©·
