The Emotional Canvas: Expression in Paint with EO Omwake- Session 2
Explore the fundamentals and advanced approaches to expressive and abstract painting in a supportive, studio-based environment. Instructor Eo Omwake works closely with each student, guiding individuals to achieve their personal goals, interests, and ways of working—this is a personalized learning experience rather than a one-size-fits-all class.
Students are invited to explore what creativity means in their own practice, whether they are just beginning or looking to deepen and expand work they have been developing for years.
All levels work together in the same studio, with instruction tailored to each person. In addition to individual guidance while working, the class includes video lessons on the “nuts and bolts” of painting. In addition to videos, each class includes in studio work with ‘in-the-moment’ feedback from Eo, followed by a group critique that reviews and reflects on the work created during class that day.
