Confirmed Competitors
Montina Hussey
Instagram: montinaart
Montina says it's a wrestling with repressed emotions which she harnesses and imprints onto the canvas. This comes out as expressive, figurative work that is formed by irrational colors of flesh and distorted gestures. Montina takes psychological schools of thoughts and topics that are not found in small talk, and in numerous aggressive mark making, transports them into physical form.

Every time I go to an art battle I go with my mind set on having lots of fun doing what I like most: paint, without necessarily thinking about winning...though winning is always a great experience!
