Artist Talk with Jaya King
Saturday, July 27, 3 – 4:30 PM (Free)
Join Jaya King for a talk on her recent series of landscape paintings, and find out more about how she conceives of her work from start to finish. Jaya is a well-known muralist whose large scale paintings in Sacramento and beyond are filled with bright hues and detailed figures and other objects from the natural world. This is a free event, with a suggested donation of $10.
Her exhibit, chromavista, is on display at the Pence Gallery from July 2 – August 16, 2024.
