Eugenia Papa graduated from the Liceo Artistico Misticoni in Pescara.
During her studies, she participated in numerous workshops on painting, ceramics, and working with wood, some of which with external exhibitions, such as ‘Le ombre dell’anima’ (Shadows of the soul) on the theme of bulimia/anorexia, staged in conjunction with the Vittoria Colonna Museum.
After graduating, she continued to study and practice painting, always under the guidance of Wally Gammelli (a long-standing tutor at the Pescara school of art), experimenting with different techniques, such as tempera, watercolour, gesso and batik, on fabric and paper.
However, she worked mostly in oil on linen or coarse hemp canvas. She also tried her hand at sculpture with a chisel on stone.
In September 2009 she staged a one-woman exhibition in her attic studio, which was visited and appreciated by a wide public. Recently, she showed one of her paintings at the MuMi in Francavilla al Mare, as part of an exhibition dedicated to Gabriele D’Annunzio.
