All 50 Invitational Artists will be gathering in Heisler Park to compete in the annual Quick Draw Painting Competition. The artists only have 2 hours – 9:30am to 11:30am – to create a plein air masterpiece! Come watch them paint as they carry on the plein air painting tradition that established Laguna Beach as an art colony 100 years ago! Visit with the artists before or after the Laguna Art Museum’s Centennial Trolley Tour!
Immediately following the Quick Draw painting event, the artists will gather at the Festival of Arts for a Meet & Greet reception at the Festival of Arts, starting at 12:30pm to 1:30pm. The public is invited to join us (free admission) for refreshments, to meet the artists and see the framed wet paintings.
The Quick Sale Art Show will be presented at the Festival of Arts from 1:30pm to 3:00pm. This is a fantastic opportunity to add a special and memorable plein air painting to your collection that you were able to watch it created before your eyes by an award winning plein air master artist. Not only can you collect a California original work of art, but you are also collecting the experience of seeing the artwork created! Come see the artwork and meet the artists at the Laguna Festival of Arts!
LPAPA merchandise will be available for purchase at the LPAPA Pop-Up Store! Â
All of LPAPA’s Sunday Quick Draw events are free entry to the public!
