This limited competition is open to just 50 artists (18+), so early registration is encouraged. Participants will display and sell their work at our Wet Paint Sale, with the opportunity to win over $6,000 in awards, including a $2,500 First Place prize and the $1,000 Spirit of OC Award, along with several specialty awards celebrating light, maritime scenes, nocturnes, and more. Artists are also invited to participate in the Quick Paint Competition on August 16, where painters create works against the clock in downtown Ocean City before returning to the Arts Center for judging and a public art sale. The event will be juried by acclaimed painter Kevin Fitzgerald, whose work has been exhibited and collected internationally. Registration is filled on a first-come, first-served basis. $50 – Art League Members $65 – Non-Members Registration includes participation in the Artists Paint OC event and the Quick Paint Competition.
