Brushwork: Fine Art Paintings Challenge

Clean those brushes - it’s time to paint!

With our Brushwork: Fine Art Paintings Challenge, we are looking to add approximately 85 new prints to our online collection across a range of styles and subjects. Please note that any submissions containing hand-done or digitally-painted elements will be accepted to this Challenge, including mixed-media or collaged work that incorporates paint. We hope this Challenge will inspire you to push the boundaries of what constitutes a painting. We can’t wait to see what you create!

  • All winning pieces must print clearly in our largest sizes (48”x70” and 44”x44”). We ask that you submit the best files possible for us to work with. Please note our file requirements outlined in the “How to Submit Winning Files” section of the Challenge Brief.
  • This Challenge is for non-custom artwork only. Children’s and foil-pressed artwork will not be accepted.
  • We will accept both single-piece submissions and submissions that include 2-4 pieces that are intended to hang together. Pairs and sets must be submitted using one of our ten submission templates located in the submission kit.
  • As this Challenge is sourcing for a smaller assortment, artists are limited to a maximum of 10 submissions per artist. Pairs and sets submitted together in one submission file count as a single submission. K-level Art artists in our CMYK program are exempt from this submission limit.
  • As always, we recommend focusing on quality over quantity and using polling and peer critique to not only narrow down the designs you submit, but also improve the quality of your work. We encourage you to take risks, try new things, and submit a variety of compositions.

  • Critique Period: 3/12 - 3/13 @10 am PT
