Artist on the Court

Artist on the Court is a sport minigame found in Mario Power Tennis. The minigame takes place in the grassy Peach Dome, with a large mural in the middle of the court. The player must paint the mural by shooting paint balls that appear from Warp Pipes, using the colors that correspond to the original picture that appears on the ground. A paint ball does not affect the mural if it hits an incorrect portion of the mural. Once the player finishes painting the mural with the correct colors, the game finishes. The music played on this court is an arrangement of "Inside the Castle Walls" from Super Mario 64.

In the Wii version, the player gets 10 minutes instead of 5 to finish the mural. Additionally, the color of whichever ball has been hit will automatically fill in every portion of the mural corresponding to that color.
