How To Enter A Painting Contest And Win

By Richard Roberts


There are so many reasons why so many different kinds of people love to paint. Many people just do it for the joy of creating something beautiful, or because it relaxes them and helps with their fine motor skills. However, others who are more serious painters enjoy taking their best pieces to a painting contest to see just how well they do against the others and maybe even win a prize.

For the artist who is only at the beginner level, it can be very hard not only to find a place where their art can be exhibited, but also to find a way to gain the courage to do so. Subjecting a beloved and personal piece of art to the opinion of strangers can be very daunting and intimidating. The judges of contests are great people to hear advice from that can actually help.

One of the hardest things for some new artists to do is to select the right piece of artwork for a contest. Many of these less experienced painters are not yet familiar with the massive quantity of artists and submissions that come with almost every competition. To win, the entrant must pick something that will stand out from the rest and not be overlooked because the judge just saw five others just like it.

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.

Looking of these types of contests online is the very best way for an artist to have a good chance of finding one that is perfect for their level of expertise, locality, and style. It is easy to find all the details on these events by looking them up. It is now easy to find out where these contests are happening and to get a piece sent in.

It is always nice when the prize winner is compensated in some way with a cash prize. While paintings take many hours of tireless work as well as money for supplies, it can be hard to keep at it without some kind of monetary compensation. These types of contests usually come with a fee to help pay for the prize, but it is a small price to pay for a big payoff.

It can be very scary to put a painting into a contest because of the risk that it might be damaged or hurt in some way. Many painters feel that their work is a part of them, almost like their children, and it can be hard to send it away. Getting insurance on an art piece can help give the painter peace of mind.

While only the judges themselves truly know what they are looking for when they determine the winners of a competition, those who have won contests in the past can have some quite insightful knowledge. Many of these individuals have shared their secret with everyone online. It can also be very helpful to take a look at what they painted for those entries.
