Painted with Raven is a makeup competition television series hosted by Raven, which premiered on WOW Presents Plus on November 25, 2021. RuPaul serves as co-executive producer alongside Randy Barbato, Fenton Bailey, and Tom Campbell of World of Wonder. After two weeks of the debut competition show, on December 9, 2021, it was announced that it had been picked up for a second season.
Each week contestants compete in challenges for points. The best performing contestant of the week is awarded three points and the lowest-performing contestant receives none and is muted, thus unable to compete in the following episode's challenge. The winner of the show is determined through a final showdown and receives a cash prize of $25,000. The show is shot virtually with contestants competing from their own homes.
