Paint by numbers makes a comeback in during the A&E District of the City of West Palm Beach

A.T.B is happy to present the second Painting by Numbers hosted this year in the Downtown City of West Palm Beach after much demand for it to make a comeback.

The concept of Painting by Numbers  is a borrowed concept from the Atlanta's Paint by Numbers. The first time we got to do this was in Northwood in 2009. The new concept is, eight local professional artists design a visual concept working alongside student artists.

 The professional artists will show their interpretations of West Palm Beach on to a 16'x8' canvas for the community to come together and paint, bringing that reflection to life.

This event is sponsored by the City of West Palm Beach Art In Public Places and the West Palm Beach Arts & Entertainment District (A&E District). The project is developed and facilitated by A.T.B. Fine Artists & Designers LLC. Music will be provided by Smooth Bounce Entertainment The event will be held on the 400 block of Clematis Street in front of the Mandel Public Library.

Artists include: 
Amanda Valdes
Anthony Burks Sr.
Caron Bowman 
David German 
Erick Marquez 
Johnol Jones 
Rolando Chang Barrero 
Steve Marino

Join the artists and the citizens of the City of WPB and paint. November 15, 2014 11:30am-6pm. And if you really want to be impressive and have strong large scale drawing skills, be there at 9am to help .
