How To Enter A Painting Contest And Win

By Richard Roberts


The world is full of all kinds of painters, each one an individual with his or her own interests and goals with what to do with their work. While many people enjoy painting just for the fun of it, plenty of others enjoy entering into a serious painting contest. This can be for a number of reasons including the prestige, exposure, and cash prizes, or just the thrill of competing.

For the up-and-coming artist, nothing is harder than breaking into the scene. Those who are less skilled have a hard time finding a place to show their work, and finding helpful advice from knowledgeable experts. That is something these contests are ideal for.

It is important to realize that in most contests, a huge number of entries are made. This makes it difficult for any given piece to stand out from the rest. A good way to approach these types of large competitions is by trying to select an art piece that would differentiate itself from the rest, and by trying to stay away from the most stereotypical images that many other artists may have in their paintings.

There are some types of artists who can do it all, while others need to stick to what they're good at. It's important for an artist to find a competition that suits his or her abilities. That way, the artist can play to his or her strengths.

Nowadays there are plenty of resources available to find out exactly where these types of events are happening and when. Since they take place all around the world, the Internet is a great tool to find plenty of resources. There are a number of networks that help promote competitions and get the information out to people.

Some contests are free to enter, making it much more beginner-friendly and casual. These are helpful to invite first-timers to try out the competition because there is nothing to lose. People who are looking to get serious about their paintings and competing are probably looking for a cash prize, and those contests usually require the entrant to pay a fee.

There is always a level of risk involved when entering art into an event like this for the piece to be damaged in some way. Sometimes the paintings in the competition are displayed for the public to come in and see, and sometimes pieces must be shipped in the mail. It is a good idea to look into how much insurance would cost for the artwork.

There are several different categories that the judges of a competition look at to see which entry should be considered the best. It is a good idea to look into what these categories are, as well as talk to former winners of contests if possible. Some of these individuals have posted their tips online, and it is very helpful to see what they painted.
