Art Battle – Living Arts Centre Mississauga
Artists at work
This week, my wife and I went to our second Art Battle event at the Living Arts Centre in Mississauga this week. First off, if you don’t know what Art Battle is, you can check out the full details on the Art Battle Website. The basics are: artists compete in 20-minute sessions to create pieces that earn them votes from the in-the-round audience.
It is an amazing experience to watch artists work on and finish a painting in just 20-minutes. You see the vision come together from the beginning outlines to the finishing strokes. It is so cool to walk around and see the images take shape. You might not have any idea what the painting is of for the majority of the time only to have a sudden moment of realization in the last minutes as the artist finishes.
