About The Event
The Quick Paint is a highlight of the weeklong Paint Great Falls event. Spectators are immersed in the creative process as they watch scenes come to life through the artists’ unique interpretations. Each artist will create a painting on a small canvas in only two hours with changing light and weather conditions. It’s creativity in its most exhilarating form!
At 6:00 PM, artists will display their completed paintings on easels into the middle of the Great Falls Vilage Centre Green. Accomplished artist Tricia Ratliff will award prizes shortly thereafter. All of the painting are available for sale to add to your personal collection. Everything about the Quick Paint is quick, vibrant, and unforgettable.
