In Casey's large-scale oil pastel paintings, he channels the spirit of childhood doodles, capturing a sense of freedom and creativity. These pieces serve as a visual journey, merging cartoon characters, snippets from daily walks, commentary, intricate designs, and visual art tricks. Each stroke weaves together a tapestry of Casey's imagination, offering a glimpse into the genuine artistic talent that defines his creative expression.

Hello im Casey Ross Jr. aka Casey The Icon. In my large-scale oil pastel paintings, I channel the spirit of childhood doodles, capturing a sense of freedom and creativity.

Ahmad says his work is best described as a "visual orgasm." His work is all over both Chicago and the world, from mural walls to indoors with collectors. He has worked with notable names from the Chicago Bulls to Nike and Puma.

Looking forward to throwing down with the other dope artist in Chicgao!!!

This is Alli's second Art Battle! Her main form of medium is oil painting so she is interested to see how she can push herself to create faster with oil's longer painting process.

This is my second Art Battle and I couldn't be more excited! My art style has evolved since my last competition and I feel extra prepared now -- I can't wait to see what my hands can do this time in 20 minutes as well as all of the other amazing artists'!

Meet Cow Divine, a Holy Cow The Divine Bovine! It is doubtful that you have seen a Cow create art in person before so this will be a once in a lifetime experience. She says she lives on equal ground with every other person therefore it isn’t often she competes with others. Cow Divine won’t tell you she came here to win but she did come here to show all the humans of Chicago that a farm animal is actually smarter than one might think.
