HELLO!

My name is

Cathryn Sofarnos

I am a multi-disciplinary abstract artist and for many years I worked with textiles, a medium I enjoyed immensely for its potential for abstract expression.

However,...

some years ago I transitioned from textiles to painting as I was seeking a new way to express my ideas.I thought this would be

an easy shift..

as I already had a good understanding of colour, composition and contrast. However, the reality was

quite the opposite!.

Learning to paint presented significant challenges and frustrations as...

I struggled to find my voice

and style!. At times, I thought I would never develop my ideas and even considered

giving up altogether!.

But through perseverance and many hours of experimenting, I finally experienced some breakthroughs and...

was finally able move forward!

This course is designed to help you simplify the endless choices and decisions in art-making, and...

fast-track your creative process!

In this course I will demonstrate a

PROVEN METHOD...

that will get you creating beautiful and authentic abstract compositions, whether you're new to painting or an experienced artist!

So join me today!!

A Testimonial!

"The Joy of Abstract Mini Course has been an enriching, inspiring, and transformative experience for me. I have always admired abstract art but felt uncertain about where to begin to create it. Through this well-structured and thoughtfully paced course, Cathryn completely demystifies the process. Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned artist you will gain so much from this course, as you are guided step by step from initial concept to completed abstract piece.

I especially love how Cathryn emphasised the importance of finding your own style. I felt encouraged to embrace my creative instincts without worrying about rules. The demonstrations are incredibly helpful, showing not only how to use the various tools and techniques, but also how to experiment and add your own personal touches with them. The composition section was also eye-opening and it taught me how to think more deeply about the elements of art.

I now approach my creative process with a greater sense of freedom and I feel more confident in my abilities. This course exceeded my expectations and it is a must for anyone wanting to explore abstract art."
