Are you allowed to bring a picture as a reference or a stencil you made to the contest and use it?

You can bring a picture and refer to it as you do your painting, but we don't allow intricate stencils to be brought in to use. Painters will sometimes put down papers to help accentuate certain lines and even use tape (we provide this) to keep paint away from certain spaces, and even make a quick easy stencil on site, just not bring in special tips or stencils. Everything should be done on site. Good question, if you have any others please ask.
