A live painting battle kicked off the summer art festival at Deer Lake. Contestants are required to bring their paints and brushes. In turn, they were given a blank canvas, two hours to finish their works and paint whatever they want. It’s a unique way for artists, painters, art lovers and community to come together. It’s a short time. Do they have something in mind already? I wonder. As a watcher, it was mesmerizing to watch their brush strokes, a palette of colours, and what pattern will appear on a blank canvas.
If I were to choose who would be the winner, I would pick them all. Who would you pick as the first, second and third place?
Starting point: Blank canvas painted with pale yellow as a base colour.
Stoked!
Not only the winners received a cash prize, but all paintings were also auctioned off at the end of the event.
What a great way of coming together as a community. Who won???

They are all great! The portrait is amazing. My sister does portraits so I think I have a special appreciation for them.
