Thanks to Graham Preston and The Locktender team for a wonderful weekend of Artmaking and Competition
You can have a portrait for Peanuts...
40 acclaimed artists from New York City, Philadelphia, and the surrounding regions come together to compete in this Art meets Sport event. Tirelessly rendering over 5 rowdy rounds of live portrait painting, the artists will subject themselves to a process of elimination by a professional jury, in a “Winner Takes All” scenario. Each round will have a different concept and objective. The lone victor will be belted, crowned, and rewarded with title of “The World Champion of Live Portrait Painting.”
Our mission is to foster a growing artistic community centered around contemporary concerns while creating and sustaining art spaces focussed on presenting contemporary art, supporting emerging talent, and providing community driven opportunities.
