To enter your art, click on the Entry Form button below, fill in the details and add your picture. It’s as simple as that!
The ‘Challenge’ is set bi-monthly. It is an opportunity to try different subjects and styles and the chance to win £20.
It also gives us time to study other members’ styles and techniques and to give them words of encouragement and constructive criticism.
A Voting Form will be placed at the bottom of the ‘Entries’ page each time a Challenge finishes. Please encourage your fellow artists by voting and leaving comments on their works. All comments will be moderated and published anonymously.
Entries should be your original work and must not breach copyright. Whilst there was a tradition of learning techniques by copying the work of established masters, this is no excuse – any work which is a copy (and including work “inspired by”) should acknowledge the original artist/photographer/other source. Failure to do so will risk being disqualified.
HOW TO PREPARE YOUR ENTRY
Your images should be:
Sharp and colour correct. Format .jpgor .jpeg or .png
Resolution: minimum 96 pixels per inch

HINT:
Take your photograph on a good bright day but not in direct sunlight and use a tripod if you have one. Keep you camera at the same angle as the picture.
