Artland is coming to sacramento. Enjoy a weekend of paintings, photos, and more! We're showcasing over 300 paintings created by some of our most talented artists. We're also including an exclusive section of local artists from your area. They must have met a very high standard in order to be presented so come help us reveal local talents. We have many activities prepared for your enjoyment and even some puzzling pieces.
Are you feeling troubled with your ability to determine color? Colors often become meshed and difficult to bring forth. The artists you will see during Artland have proven their ability to color match and make their imaginative colors a reality. There's so much color we don't showcase any black and white during our shows as the world has many beautiful colors to show you.
This isn't your standard face painting. We provide you with the best UV paints to go wild with. There are multiple packages that you can try each with varying amounts of paint. Bring a friend or paint alone in the blacklight room.
You are able to wonder the displays as you please but if you're looking for a bit more information on each artist this event is for you. Follow one of our guide experts as they tour the displays with you and communicate the artists intentions.
"An artist's duty is rather to stay open-minded and in a state where he can receive information and inspiration. You always have to be ready for that little artistic Epiphany." - Nick Cave.
What we perceive as real can be, or can not be. Reality can be an illusion and sometimes we allow our imagination to illude what we believe not with our eyes but with our minds. Hidden in between some photos in the photography section will be some paintings that are so realistic they breach the line of reality. If you can determine which "photos" are really paintings you will earn a reward from us. (speak to entry booth with your guesses)
