About Ourselves |
| 'Expressions' Expressions began in 1986 as a modest attempt to bring out the latent creative
part which exists in each one of us to a certain extent. We wanted to see that people from
all walks of life and ages could learn to paint in mediums suitable for them. Most of the
classes offered in India generally are very rigid in their instruction, for example; there
are fixed batches, age limits etc. which deterred most people from taking the plunge. What
we had in mind was different, we did not want the student to be tied down by time
schedules and procedures. We have no age limits and batches here(we have had students from six
years onwards to eighty three), this is what we think attracts our students more than
anything else. Each student gets the individual attention they deserve and since regular
attendance is not compulsory they work at their own pace and continue from wherever they
have stopped. EXPRESSIONS |
