Studio Notes
                                                                   Thursday April 26, 2007

Someday maybe I will transform this page into a blog, but for right now, this is what it will be.  I have been
so busy getting things ready at my studio and preparing for the Open House scheduled for the first
weekend in June.
I am only going to write a short blurb here, as I need to get ready for my figure painting class this afternoon
over at the Terry Miura Studio.  I am learning so much about figure painting from my teacher Terry.  I
can't believe how fortunate I am to know him and study with him. He is my inspiraton and truly a master.  
You can see all the classes, workshops, and open studio sessions held at his studio at

I did these figure practices during
the Tuesday afternoon figure
drawing class at Terry Miura's
studio.  I still have so much to
learn, but practice, practice,
practice.  I always write notes on
these practice drawings so I can
refer back to them - sort of like
a priceless drawing manuel
containing  invaluable notes from
the master himself..

Grand Opening of Patris Studio at
Studio S12.   I was overwhelmed by
the support and encouragement from
all my friends and acquaintances who
came to the Open House and 2nd
Saturday Artist Reception.  I was truly
blessed by the outpouring of
everyone's kindness and inspiration.  
Thank you to everyone!

S12 is quickly becoming  Sacramento's premier art venue.  Along with
Terry Miura's fantastic classes and open studios, we have now added
water media workshops, art exhibits, art lectures and seminars for artists.  
Plans are in the works for even more art opportunities at S12 as we
expand our horizons.

On Thursdays, I have been studying figure painting with my mentor and
master artist, Terry Miura.  He has impacted my life in so many ways. I
did this study in his class a few weeks ago.
