2018 ALL Colors
Art Exhibition & Competition Prospectus
"People observe the colors of a day only at its beginnings and its ends, but to me it's quite clear that a day merges through a multitude of shades and intonations, with each passing moment. A single hour can consist of thousands of different colors. Waxy yellows, cloud-spat blues. Murky darknesses. In my line of work, I make it a point to notice them.”
― Markus Zusak, The Book Thief
Contemporary Art Gallery Online is proud to announce their 6th Annual “ALL Colors” Online Art Competition for 2018.
Contemporary Art Gallery Online encourages entries from all 2D and 3D artists regardless of their experience,education in the art field or where they may reside. This is an international competition and everyone is encouraged to participate. A group exhibition of all entrants will be held online at the Contemporary Art Gallery Online following the close of the competition for thirty days.
Artists should submit their best representational or non-representational art related to the "ALL Colors" theme. The “ALL Colors” theme is an open subject competition with a concentration on color. One color or a multitude of color in a work meets the criteria of this competition. Here is a link to last years EXHIBITION, so as to better demonstrate this month's theme.
This competition will be judged within three categories; Paintings, Photography and Mixed Media and 3D Work. Awards will be given for the top 5 to 8 works selected, (this will be depend on the number submissions in each category). In addition, depending on the amount and the quality of all submissions received, additional awards will also be presented.
