Class
RiverArts member Paul E. Santori is a nationally recognized artist whose works can be found in collections locally, nationally and internationally. Paul works in a variety of styles including plein air painting. RiverArts invites you to join Paul in the wilds of the Eastern Shore for a painting excursion.
During the painting session, Paul will share some of the techniques and approaches involved in his vibrant and energetic approach which emphasizes an emotive response to landscape rather than a purely representational methodology. The first session Paul will be painting with acrylics, the second oil; however either are welcome in each session.
This class is geared towards people with an established art practice so attendees will be responsible for providing their own tools and materials.
Meet-up location suggestions are welcome. You will be notified regarding final details by email.
It is noted that two classes are being offered, one mid-afternoon and the other late-afternoon/evening. This is to accommodate people's availability; however, you are welcome to sign up for either or both sessions.

Paul E. Santori is a painter and musician living on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Born in Columbia, Missouri he has always lived in the United States, spending his early years in Tulsa, Oklahoma before moving to Matawan, New Jersey. From 1978 to 1982 he attended the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where he benefited from a very open curriculum which allowed him to work in sculpture, video and performance art. His main interest, however, was always painting and drawing. On graduating with a BFA from SAIC he worked at freelance gallery and museum installation and various other odd jobs, showing at occasional group shows. His interest in music began around this time and he became heavily involved in the music scene until 1989. Circumstances in life then led to a long hiatus from artistic activity until 2008 when he began painting again in earnest. In 2012 he moved to Falls Church, Virginia where in addition to making art he started playing music again. In 2017, he relocated to the Eastern Shore, Maryland where he is currently active in the local art and music scene.
