They will be painting a selection of boards/canvas and you will be able to watch the pieces being made and, if you like what you see, approach the artist, buy it and take it home with you.We are also encouraging people to bring objects along with them that they would like painted, the more unusual the better, and get their favourite artist to hit it up. We've already got one guy bringing his van, coffee table and living room door with him so it promises to be lively."
