ACRYLIC PAINTING FOR YOUTH/ADULTS BY EMILY MAY PASSMAN

Emily is a painter of oils and acrylics, known for her expressive, loose style. She works from observation, both in the studio and “plein air” and describes her work as a ‘reaction to’ the observation of a subject, with a loaded brush, as opposed to a rendering of a “pretty” scene.  She paints in a method that the application and treatment of her brushwork have as much importance as the objects or scene she is painting. Her work is in galleries in New England and private collections internationally.

After earning both a fine arts degree and a Master’s in Education, she had a successful career as an educator and graphic designer. She teaches privately in her barn-studio in Lexington, Massachusetts and at various educational venues.
