# Yang Yang — Founder & Instructor, Ocean Yang Atelier

Yang Yang is a classically trained artist and instructor specializing in academic drawing, realist painting, and long-term artistic development.

Yang Yang founded Ocean Yang Atelier in 2019 after training at two of the world's leading art institutions. Her teaching is guided by a conviction that classical academic methods — when taught with patience and rigour — give students the most durable and expressive foundation for any artistic direction.

Her formation combines rigorous studio training in oil painting with university-level research in the plastic arts. This dual background shapes an approach that is both technically demanding and sensitive to each student's personal artistic direction.

For Yang, expression is not opposed to discipline: it grows from it. Students are encouraged to slow down, observe more precisely, correct their own work, and build confidence through repeated practice.
