The 25th round of the painting battle frenzy known as Art Battle Manchester kicked off at the Factory at Aviva Studios in January.
Following art battle tradition of never using the same venue, this round’s battle saw 10 artists race to paint in a shared space with an immersive exhibition of one of the most recognisable artists today – David Hockney.
Tattoo artists, illustrators, professional painters, street artists – anyone brave enough can participate.
All of the artwork created on the night was put into a silent bid and auctioned off.
50% of the proceeds went to Manchester-based charity for neurodivergent artists, Venture Arts.
