Welcome to our online gallery of the work made by the students of the Essential School of Painting for the academic year of 2020-21. This academic year has presented a variety of challenges to our students from working both online and in studio to travelling to and from our studio or travelling out of town on group projects within the restrictions and regulations presented by COVID. The Artist-tutors and admin team of the ESOP would like to express a hearty congratulations to all our students for all the work they have singularly and as a group produced.
Please note this coming November we will have the physical exhibition of this exhibition where you can come along and see some of the work and more in the flesh.
Exhibition outline
This exhibition is divided into galleries. Each gallery either represents a particular course or group of artists or individual artist.

Most of the artwork is available to purchase or commission. Should you be interested in a particular work or number of works please note down the name(s) of the artist and the artwork and then return to this page and use the form at the bottom of this page to contact the school or the one found on the online gallery itself.
