A Saturday night full of fun, music and paint!

Painters put their skills to the test with only 20 minutes to turn blank canvases into incredible pieces of original art. Audience vote decides who will go home with the Golden Brush and earn their spot on the National Final. This is Art Battle©.

Artists include Alice Sims (https://www.instagram.com/paintpig/) who “likes to see what happens when I try and paint something realistic and detailed in a short, pressurised amount of time.” Rhiannon Kagoe (https://www.instagram.com/rhiannonkagoe/) who is looking “to challenge myself and to meet other artists in the area.” Nigel Turner (www.nigelturnersart.com) who “knows how to use composition and line to make a compelling work of art.”. It looks to be a fanatastic battle with one artist chosen from the audience on the night as a WILDCARD.

After delivering two fantastic black and white portraits, Krystan-Grace Sharpe-Young (https://www.instagram.com/krystangraceart/) earned her spot as champion and took home the Golden Brush! She’ll be returning as the feature artist and we can’t wait to see what she creates with more time and less pressure!

All works created, including Krystan’s, will be available for silent auction on the night, bridging the gap between creators and collectors, creating a supportive creative community, and allowing audiences to take away a part of the night to remember.
