Ten Moir Gallery is excited to announce a Call for Entry for the Figurative Art Competition!
This month’s Figurative Art contest is an exciting challenge for all budding and experienced artists. The theme requires you to create artworks that depict the human form and features such as facial expressions, body language, and movement. This is a great opportunity to show off your creative skills!
This contest will require you to think outside the box to create innovative pieces of artwork. You can draw inspiration from the classical figurative art movement or use more modern styles such as photorealism or abstract expressionism. Whether your artwork is realistic or abstract, it must be able to capture the essence of humanity in a unique way.
The Gallery welcomes entries from all mediums and styles.
Best in Show will receive a cash prize of $100 USD, a digital reward certificate and be the featured artist during the exhibition date. All award winning artists will receive a digital award certificate. Depending on the number and quality of all submissions received, Honorable Mention awards may also be given.
The exhibition and winning artists will be marketed and promoted extensively through the gallery’s website, in hundreds of online press release announcements, email marketing campaigns to over 8,500 buyers, collectors, galleries and art professionals, online event calendars, through art news websites and through our growing social media network.
Submit your entries now and let us be amazed by your creativity!
