3 Ways to

Approach Abstraction

In this free guide, I share my 3 foundational concepts from my own abstracting process: Pause (mindful observation), Notice (sensory connection), and Filter (creating your visual record). These simple but powerful techniques help you move from confusion to clarity when approaching abstract landscape art. Perfect for beginners wondering how to start abstracting what they see.

Have you tried different ways to abstract your subject, but not yet found one that resonates with you? I found it surprisingly hard to know where to even begin! In this online class I'll be sharing my entire process of abstraction, from gathering the data to completing the work.

"An inspirational tutor, helped me think of landscape painting in a whole new way - has given me the freedom to experiment."

Discover the world of cyanotype - but not as you know it! Pushing this medium in new ways, we explore it as an addition to your practice or as a standalone method to create exciting new work! If you're ready to break the rules and create unique cyanotype art with stunning colour expansion effects, this course is for you. I'll show you how to adjust solution ratios, mix wet and dry materials, and achieve colours beyond traditional blue - all through experimental cyanotype techniques that give you a creative edge.

Ready to take it to the next level? Group coaching and mentoring:

Meet Natalie, Your Guide

I spent a long time trying to understand what I wanted my art practice to be and how I wanted to make that happen.

After many dead ends and frustrations I brought all my successes together to create a framework that worked for me.

Experimentation

Everything I teach has an element of experimentation and I strongly encourage this mindset in all the classes.

I teach you the basics, then support you to continue asking 'what if'....' as you explore and apply what you have learned into your own practice.

Experience

Join me as I share this with artists just like you, whatever your experience.

Whether you are just beginning your artist journey or seeking a different approach, these classes will inspire you.

Why have group coaching?

Being part of a small coaching group can offer you a supportive and encouraging space to develop ideas, overcome resistance and set action plans that you'll actually want to stick to!

A typical coaching programme will consist of 4 zoom group calls a week apart, with 1:1 email support in between. The sessions will be guided according to the needs specified by the selected group and will give you an opportunity to both receive help and guidance and support other group members.

If you're at a stage in your artist path where you are facing some challenges and would like some help and accountability to really make progress, submit the expression of interest form to join the waitlist.
