| About Us |
| EDUCATION Weekly life drawing and painting classes incorporate classical traditions of the Renaissance masters. Working from live models, artists from beginning to advanced levels have the opportunity to develop and refine their artistic skills. Artist Workshops are scheduled throughout the year and focus on further skill development, exploration, and expression. Weekly art classes focus on preparing the emerging artist with the foundational tools needed for continued artistic growth. ENVIRONMENT Capitol Art Center at S12 currently accommodates 5 open studio sessions a week where artists come and draw or paint from a model. No instruction is offered,and all levels are welcome. Providing an environment where artists can practice, develop and further their own artistic growth is a high priority for artist Patris and other artists involved in the artistic community of Sacramento, CA.. Every month, Capitol Art Center and the Patris Studio at S12 participate in the city-wide 2nd Saturday Art Walk. Artists and art lovers from near and far visit the exhibitions, meet the artists, and observe artists in action as they paint or draw in the Patris Studio or Michael Mikolon Studio. EXHIBITION From emerging to nationally known artists, a diverse range of level and skill are showcased in the Patris Studio. The main theme that runs throughout the artwork is the artist's pursuit of painting and drawing from life - whether figurative, still life, or en plein air. |
