Eight artists armed with brushes, paint and an empty canvas were given 20 minutes Saturday night to produce a painting to be immediately judged by 55 people who paid for the privilege of witnessing live art created on the spot.
Known as an “Art Clash,” and the top four vote-getters moved on to round two and were given 30 minutes to come up with their next creation. When the field was reduced to two, the final vote determined the winner.
Saturday night’s competition featured artists David Bremer, Kathy Fredrickson, John French, Kahl Jahnke, Adrian Mesino, Natalie Pivoney, Ken Simonsen and Sierra Tuazon. “There were a lot of really good artists here tonight, and it took a bit of luck to win,” Jahnke said. While she has been involved with painting sets for school plays and putting together props for Elgin’s popular Nightmare on Chicago Street Halloween street party, competing live and having your work immediately evaluated is something she’d never want to do, Moring said.
