There is so much more to painting abstract art than just throwing pretty colours at a canvas…
If you’ve ever felt like your art is “almost there” but not quite gallery-worthy...
If you’ve been trying to follow your intuition but your paintings end up messy, muddy or lacking depth...
If you’ve wasted hours on YouTube tutorials and still don’t know what makes a great abstract piece...
You’re not alone... and you’re not wrong for feeling stuck.
What you actually need is the powerful fusion of 3 Core Forces (My Abstract Alchemy Method):
-
🎨 Creative Skill – mastery of the fundamental principles that make abstract art sing: colour, composition, balance, and technique.
-
🌿 Creative Motivation – inspiration that fuels your art with personal meaning and emotional resonance and the ability to create your own visual language...ie Develop your own unique signature style.
-
🔮 Creative Power – your intuitive flow: the ability to tune in, receive and channel soul-guided creativity that makes your work unforgettable and connects to your perfect buyer!
This isn’t something you can piece together from free videos or random workshops.
This is what I teach inside my transformational, signature program…
The Academy

From Muddy Messes to Four-Figure Masterpieces
Hi, I’m Ciara Gilmore - a professional abstract artist, gallery exhibitor and soulful creative from Ireland.
While I’ve been painting for over 30 years, I came to abstract art later in life - and I’ll be honest, I thought it would be easy.
I assumed if I followed my intuition, the magic would just… happen.
But instead, I found myself frustrated and stuck. My paintings were muddy, chaotic, and lacked direction - and my confidence started to shrink.
It wasn’t until I combined spiritual intuition with real skill and a clear creative process that everything changed.
Suddenly, my paintings began to sell.
My audience grew.
And most importantly - I felt like I had finally found my true style.
Since then, I’ve sold hundreds of works through galleries and online, built a thriving art business from my studio, and taught soulful artists around the world to do the same - without art school, burnout, or compromising their authenticity.
✨Now, it’s your turn.✨
'Harness the power of your intuition to create breathtaking paintings that resonate with your perfect buyers!!'
You Don't Need To Figure It Out On Your Own
There’s a reason you’re here.
You want to create art that’s more than just nice to look at - you want to create art that connects, resonates, and transforms.
You want to paint from your soul and learn the skills that make your work stand out in galleries, online shops, and collectors’ homes.
That’s exactly what The Intuitive Abstract Artist - THE ACADEMY will help you do.

Who Is This For?
Is The Intuitive Abstract Artist™ Right for You?
This experience is for you if...
🎨You’ve been dabbling in abstract painting but you’re ready to go all in and create truly accomplished work
🎨You know you're intuitive - but you struggle to trust your creative instincts while painting
🎨You’re tired of inconsistent, “all over the place” results and crave cohesion, clarity and confidence
🎨You’ve sold some art (or none yet) but you’re ready to create high-level work that sells consistently
🎨You dream of gallery representation or commanding premium prices - but your style doesn’t feel refined yet
🎨You want to paint with freedom and flow - without sacrificing skill or quality
🎨You’re ready to finally be seen as the soulful, professional artist you know you truly are
If you’re nodding along... this program was made for you.
💬 Real Students, Real Results!
Finally — A Framework That Fuses Intuition with High-Level Skill -
The Abstract Alchemy Method
Most abstract art courses only teach you one piece of the puzzle.
🎨 Some focus on technique - but ignore the intuitive energy behind the work.
🔮 Others encourage free expression - but leave you floundering with muddy marks and no real direction or understanding of basic principles.
📹 And let’s not even talk about the endless free YouTube tutorials that lead to more confusion than clarity...
The Abstract Alchemy Method™ is different.
It’s a soul-led, skill-based system I developed to create abstract art that’s both deeply intuitive and technically accomplished - art that feels as good to make as it does to sell.
The 3 Essential Pillars of
The Abstract Alchemy Method™
1. Creative Skill
Build the technical foundations of accomplished abstract painting.
-
Master colour, composition, layering and form
-
Explore brushwork, glazing, blending, texture and mark-making
-
Understand what makes an abstract painting truly work
Result: Paint with greater clarity, confidence and skill.
2. Creative Motivation
Turn what inspires you into your own unique visual language.
-
Discover your true creative inspirations
-
Learn how to translate them authentically into your art
-
Develop a cohesive, recognisable signature style
Result: Create authentic work that is unmistakably YOU.
3. Creative Power
Strengthen your intuition and learn to trust yourself as an artist.
Connect with your intuitive guidance as you paint
Access creative flow with greater ease
Use meditation and energetic practices to deepen your intuition
Result: Paint with freedom, trust and a deeper connection to your work.
Together, these 3 pillars form a complete creative system that will take you from uncertain and overwhelmed…to clear, confident and creatively free!
And it’s all waiting for you inside The Intuitive Abstract Artist™.
Andy is now selling his art, has commissions lined up and has been asked to hang his art in his local university as well as having 4 pieces in an exhibition!
Why Nothing Else Has Worked
(And Why It’s Not Your Fault)
Let me guess...
You’ve poured your heart into your paintings,
but they still feel like something’s missing.
You watch other artists create stunning work with ease —
while you’re stuck staring at a half-finished canvas wondering, “Is this any good?”
You’ve tried...
-
📹 Following endless free tutorials that leave you more confused than confident
-
🖌️ Painted until you have 'overworked 'your piece because you just don't know WHEN to stop (And when a painting is truly finished)
-
🎨 Playing with colour, only to end up with muddy, inharmonious messes
-
💭 Trying to “paint intuitively” but having no idea how to REALLY trust that voice
-
📱 Scrolling through Instagram, comparing your work and feeling behind
-
📚 Reading art books that feel technical and soulless
-
🧘♀️ Waiting for inspiration that never quite comes
...and yet your paintings still feel inconsistent, unfocused and not ready to sell.
Here’s What Nobody Told You:
❌ Intuition alone isn’t enough.
❌ Skill alone won’t make your art stand out.
❌ Inspiration alone won't allow you to create professional paintings
What you need is a method that...
blends ALL 3 ...
Skill, Motivation, and Intuitive Power ...
a 'magical synergy' that together creates soulful high-quality paintings!
They work together to elevate your art from “just nice” to next-level.
That’s why I created The Intuitive Abstract Artist™ - THE ACADEMY
So you never have to feel like you’re piecing it all together on your own again.
With This Course, You’ll Finally Be Able To...
✔ Paint with confidence - no more fear of “ruining it”
✔ Trust your intuition to lead you, not confuse you
✔ Understand what makes a painting gallery-ready
✔ Create art that sells and connects - without feeling like a fraud
✔ Feel proud, lit up, and deeply connected to your work
This isn’t just a course.
It’s the sacred permission slip your artist soul has been waiting for.
What's InsideThe Intuitive Abstract Artist

3 Powerful Learning Spaces to Master the
Abstract Alchemy Method™
Inside the course, you’ll move through 3 transformational modules - or as I like to call them, 'Creative Spaces'.
Each space is designed to build on the last, so you don’t just learn —
you embody the identity of an accomplished intuitive abstract artist.
1. 🎨 The Insight Lab
Master Your Creative Skill
Think of this as your artist’s toolkit - packed with juicy techniques and clear foundations that will take your painting from confused to cohesive.
Inside this space, you will gain insight into all the skills necessary to paint really great abstract art. You will develop your CREATIVE SKILLS to optimise your painting expertise.
Think of a crazy creative scientist experimenting with lots and lots of juicy painting techniques.

Beautiful Blending

Glazing Glory
-
Brushstroke Techniques
-
Tantalising Texture ( A full module on this! )
-
Mark Making Exploration
-
Mixed Media Techniques
-
Depth through Layers
-
Activating the Canvas
-
Sketch Book Studies

Composition Studies
Here you will become confident in working with acrylic paint and understanding colour. You will also learn about what makes an accomplished abstract painting, so we dive into composition, balance, form, mark-making and many more painting basics. Once you have mastered these basics, you will be able to integrate them with your intuition and inspiration to create really authentic, breathtaking art !
Result: You’ll never look at a blank canvas the same way again.

Now it's time to dive into your CREATIVE MOTIVATION - What inspires you to paint. What LIGHTS YOU UP!✨
In PART 1 It's time to explore what your creative inspirations are and how they can guide you in informing your paintings. Whether you are inspired by the sea, clouds, architecture, texture, shapes, the human form, or animals....you can find answers in the things that you love. You will build an inspiration resource so that you always have inspiration at hand. You will understand the difference between influences and true soul inspiration and how and when to use them. And now that you have an abundance of inspiration to hand, you can infuse this with your foundational painting knowledge and super-heightened intuition to start painting truly masterful authentic artwork!
In PART 2 of the Inspiration Oasis, you will learn my secret processes for developing your own authentic and unique SIGNATURE STYLE, which is essential for gallery submissions and consistent selling.
You will learn how to work in a way that ensures cohesiveness and consistency of style and how to launch your new style (or refined style) to the world!

How to connect to your inner creative guidance system and use it while you paint

"I've sold 7 out of 9 originals and 2 prints, in the last 24 hours, making £995 in sales (therefore paying for the cost of this course before I've even finished it!) and enabling me to make a donation of £540 to the charity I want to support with my art. That's because of bumping into you and your course Ciara.
I will also say that I have never painted an abstract piece before joining this program and ALL the paintings I have sold are the ones I have made while going through this course."
Jane Weeks, UK
“I wondered if I would be good enough to do the main course. So I decided to do the Toolkit Course first, which gave me the confidence to do the main course. I am loving it! I don’t find it easy because I’m new to abstract, and my learning style is ‘slow’; however, Ciara’s an amazing teacher and is available if I need her help or advice. I can revisit the course material as often as I need to suit my learning.
I’ve learned so much from the course. The Community Group is fantastic! I’ve been able to post my work and receive advice and not be afraid of harsh criticism or ridicule. It’s truly helped me to continue to develop my painting and confidence.
I fully recommend this course. Do it!!”
Caroline Boff, UK
“Since starting Ciara's Intuitive Abstract Artist course, I have sold £2000 worth of paintings. I have made back the cost of the course already! The course is brilliant, loads of advice and information and it's really fun too. Ciara herself is kind, talented and friendly. I recommend this course to any artist or person interested in abstract art. It's been a game changer!”

FAQ's
Q How does it all work?
-
As soon as you sign up, you will receive an email inviting you to log in to the course platform 'Podia'. From there, you will create a password and log in to the curriculum.
-
You will see your lessons once you click The Intuitive Abstract Artist on the dashboard. You go through each video or worksheet in order and at your own pace. The lessons are deliberately placed in a certain sequence so you can build up your foundational skills before you jump right into painting abstracts. The link to join the Facebook group is in the introduction section, and an admin will let you in within 24 - 48 hours. The live calls are via Zoom and usually occur on the last Tuesday of each month (London Time). But the schedule will be flexible to accommodate students who fall in a different time zone. All calls are recorded and uploaded to your curriculum afterwards, so don't worry if you can't make the calls live.
Q What type of art teaching videos are included?
-
There will be a mixture of prerecorded tutorials, worksheets, experiments, and paint-along videos that all strive to help you master the skills of painting intuitive ACRYLIC abstract art. By sharing the results of your work in the Facebook Group you will be supported and guided. Live calls are available to receive further support from your coach.
Q How much access is there to the art tutor during the program?
-
Ciara will be by your side throughout, guiding and supporting you as you master intuitive abstract artist. Ciara's team will be active inside the private Facebook group, Monday to Friday during office hours, where you can share your results, progression, difficulties, wins and ask any questions. You can also avail of monthly group coaching with Ciara for 12 months which includes practical coaching Q & A sessions.
-
Ciara will lead MONTHLY ' Curator Critiques' where you submit a painting or a style collection for a comprehensive critique.
Q I am not on Facebook.
-
If you would like help with setting up a Facebook account to allow access to the group, my team can help with this. You can still complete the course independently to the group but you will not have access to critiques or guidance on the work you complete.
Q I've never taken an ONLINE course before and I'm nervous about the new tech I will need to know.
-
Online courses are very intuitive and easy to use. You will receive login details and a password that you should keep safe. When you log in, the lessons will be right there, ready to click on and begin. Downloadable written documents will also be there beside the lesson video or presentation. You will need a laptop or tablet and a good internet connection.
Q I am so busy. How will I fit everything in?
-
I totally get that life can sometimes take over. That's why I make sure my lessons contain the KEY points needed so that you can watch and implement them quickly without rushing through lots of overwhelming information. Each video is, on average, 10 - 30 minutes long. You will need extra time on top of that to practice and complete the exercises and painting projects. But remember, you can complete this course at your OWN PACE. You have a full year's access.
Q What if I go in and realise it's not for me?
-
Don’t worry, there is a 14-day money-back guarantee. See details under OUR REFUND POLICY.
Q How long do I have access?
-
You have access to the course curriculum ie the pre-recorded lessons for 12 months. (However during this current promotion period, you will get an extra year's access for FREE) so you'll have access to the lessons for 2 years instead of 1.
Q Do you offer a payment plan?
-
Yes, you can pay in 3 monthly instalments.
Q Is there a 'supply list' that comes with the course?
-
You can use what you usually use to paint or create. Having a sketchbook and/or sketch journal will be useful tools. I will provide a supply list, too, so you can use what I use in the workshops. You will need acrylic paint to paint with. This is NOT an oil painting course.
Q Will I be painting sellable abstract art by the end of the 12 months?
-
Every student will be different. Your results will depend on your commitment to the work required. Without a doubt, practising and showing up to paint regularly will speed up your skills and the development of your authentic style. Past students have demonstrated that by completing the lessons, applying the learnings, and practising consistently, they have created art that sells for high-end prices, and sells from galleries and prestigious exhibitions!
Q What if I can't make the live calls?
-
Don't worry recordings will be made available inside the curriculum.
Q Do I have access to everything straight away?
-
Because there is quite a lot of information to impart, I will be releasing the course content over a period of 6 weeks.
