The Varley–McKay Art Foundation of Markham welcomed Art Battle (http://artbattleto.com/) to host an exciting live competitive painting event inside the halls of the beautiful Varley Art Gallery.
Art Battle at the Varley included a curated one-night, 30-painter exhibit in the gallery with all painters battling for the title. Standing easel to easel, artists had 20 minutes to create the best work possible. There were 3 rounds of competitive painting, audience voting and an auction of all the work created.
I put my name into the hat, hoping to be drawn so I could compete with a 20 minute painting. That didn't happen, so I had a wonderful time looking at the work being done by the chosen artists. Over 350 people attended this event and everyone seemed to be having a great time.
