Some Pro Painting Contest Tips

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 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.

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.

There are so many more opportunities for artists looking to get involves in these types of events now than there ever were before with the help of online resources. It is now possible to find out what kind of competitions are being held all over the world. Submissions can then be mailed in from wherever the artist lives.

For those who are looking to win some money from their art entry, there is a wealth of opportunities with these kinds of contests. By checking a particular event's details either online or by calling the organization putting it on, it's easy to find out if there is any money involved for the winner. These types of competitions will usually require an entry fee.

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.

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.
