About
Ebisu Atelier d’Art was established on October 11, 2010, and offers instruction of traditional Western art. The Atelier acknowledges that each individual is unique. All students are given differentiated instruction directed and adapted to meet individual goals as related to personal interest, direction and understanding.
The techniques and procedures that we teach have literally been passed down from master to student in an oral tradition that extends unbroken to the time of the Renaissance and late Medieval period over 600 years ago. Indeed, many of the practices and concepts extend back to Roman, Greek and Egyptian times spanning thousands of years.
We are proud to continue such time-honoured instruction and practices here in Japan at Ebisu Atelier d’Art.
Mission Statement
Ebisu Atelier d’Art is committed to passing on the great tradition of Western Art. The Atelier acknowledges that art is essentially an oral tradition and therefore collaboration with, and demonstration by an adept instructor is the most expedient method of learning. Proficiency in figure construction and modeling is used to develop a student’s personal sense and understanding of form. Concepts and theories are both explained and applied to the practical processes of figuration.
