Welcome to my studio in William Street. My name is Tony Johansen, although these days I sign my paintings TonyJohansen.com Life drawing here in the Garret has that special extra magic that comes from beautiful surroundings and good music. The teaching is classically based and I accept beginners as well as advanced artists. Many of my students and sketch club artists have been coming for a long time because they enjoy the unique experience of drawing at East Sydney Academy of Art. You are welcome to come share the inspiration with us.
WELCOME
