I cannot believe it, I have agreed to participate in a ... battle! Phoenix's first Art Battle! It is a live "painting" competition: 12 artists (probably all tatooed, pierced, and stoned) create whatever they can on a canvas using acrylics within a 20-minute round of public humiliation. Six artists compete in Round 1, another six in Round 2, and the top two artists, one from each round, go into the third and final fight to beat each other to death -- not really, just to spoil another canvas. The crowd throws tomatoes at the competitors and votes for the winners. The third round determines the grand champion. Oh my, I already need a drink. Please come and cheer for this gladiator!
