Invitational Artists

The 2019 Laguna Beach Plein Air Painting Invitational features 30 of the nation’s top award winning plein air artists who are dedicated to painting the landscape and preserving Laguna’s plein air painting legacy and tradition. During the 9-day plein air art festival, the invited artists will paint in and around Laguna Beach and the surrounding communities, coastlines, and canyons. There will be several opportunities to purchase original paintings created during the week, with the artists submitting what they consider to be their best three paintings at the end of the week for the awards judging and the Collectors Gala exhibition. The artists are competing for over $40,000 in cash and prizes that include the coveted $10,000 “Best in Show”.
