The Torbay Plein Air Comp
Taking place on the final day of the Great Torre Abbey Paint Out.
Experience a weekend of outdoor art inspired by the plein air tradition, as the creative focus moves to the historic grounds of Torre Abbey for Torbay’s first open-air painting competition.
Running alongside the community celebrations, the Torre Abbey Plein Air Competition invites artists of all levels to test their skills in a demanding, timed environment. Challenging participants to capture the unique coastal landscape and historic surroundings within a strict four-hour window, all entries must be started and finished on location on the day.
The competition actively encourages diverse contemporary practices, welcoming submissions across any medium - from traditional oils and watercolours to urban, digital, sculptural, and printmaking practices. All completed works will be reviewed by a panel of professional judges and partner representatives, with cash prizes awarded for the overall winner, themed categories, and a dedicated under-18s award.
Event schedule and prizes to be announced soon.
