How To Enter A Painting Art Competition

By Ryan Sullivan


There are many benefits to creating artwork, and the artist does not have to be a professional to be able to reap these benefits. Anyone can experience the wonderful calming effect that gentle brushstrokes give to a person, and this type of artwork is also known to improve fine motor skills, meaning people end up more coordinated and often with improved handwriting. Whether a person is a casual artist because of these benefits or is more serious about it, a painting art competition is a great thing to be a part of.

Amateur painters sometimes have a hard time finding a place to show their work. These contests are a great opportunity for anyone in that situation. They provide a safe place to receive constructive criticism and gain confidence.

It can be hard to stand out in a big contest. The biggest thing to consider is whether a piece probably looks like a lot of the other paintings that will be entered. Having something that makes a piece different is a huge advantage.

Most artists have a preferred style that they like to work in. For those types of painters, it is a good idea to look for contests that reflect their artistic interests. That way, the judges will be specifically looking for all the things that the painter does best.

It used to be much harder to find out the time and location of these types of events, and people were often limited to ones they heard about in their local area. Now it is easy to look up where contests are happening all over the world, and artwork can be delivered. These online networks open up a whole new realm of opportunity.

One of the things that can be learned by looking into a contest's details is if there is any money that is awarded to the winners. Some painters are specifically looking for these types of events where they can get paid for being chosen as the best. In order to pay for these cash prizes, these types of events often require an entry fee.

There is nothing worse than having a piece damaged while it is on display or being delivered to the contest. Many artists treasure their artwork, and no amount of money could ever replace it. However, it is nice when there is some monetary compensation involved when this type of thing happens, and that is why getting a piece insured is often a good idea.

There are plenty of people who have won competitions like these in the past who are perfectly willing to share advice with newcomers to the field. It often makes painters very happy to be able to share their experience and the joy of creating paintings with others since the craft itself is often done in long stretches of isolation. It is easy to find these previous winners by looking them up online.
