If you are interested in exploring new artistic ways to express inner feelings as an alternative to literal depictions of the external visual world, then this exciting 6-week practical art course is for you. 

We begin by exploring the work of the 20th century German Expressionists (and later developments in Abstract Expressionism) in the first session with art historian Dr Judith Walsh who will identify some of the key techniques, styles, subjects and philosophies used by these radical artists. The following 5 sessions are practice based sessions led by the highly experienced and established artist and tutor Tony O’ Connell.
