For the past few days, artists from throughout the region have been taking their paints and brushes to the outdoors to create works of art. The Peel Mansion Museum and Heritage Gardens hosted the painters Friday for a quick draw competition. The competition began at 4 p.m. and went until 7 p.m.

The paintings can be viewed Saturday at the Peel Mansion. Judging is expected to be complete by 4:30 p.m. on Saturday.
