Presenting ... Competition Day 1 Portraits!

Dear Reader,

Please enjoy the first twenty portraits completed in the first 8 hours of our 2015 Alla Prima Portrait Sketch Competition! The artists painted the morning pose from 9am-1pm, and the afternoon pose from 2pm-6pm. Each painting is attributed to a pseudonym chosen by the artist. The real names will be revealed after the Awards Party and Exhibition Opening this Friday! Join us 6-9pm when judges Jacob Collins, Travis Schlaht and Edward Minoff will award $1,000 and $500 to First and Second Place winners respectively. Open to the public! 10 x 6: Portrait Sketches will be on view for one month at our adjacent gallery Eleventh Street Arts.

Judging Criteria:
The portraits will be judged as a group and evaluated for form, light effect, variety of color, paint handling and solid facial structure.
