How to WIN art contests and make money: Tips from a multi art competition winner

Are you thinking about entering an art contest but don't know how you can up your chances of winning? Well in this video, I explain to you 3 things that you can do to help you win art contests. I have been entering contests for years and have won awards in almost every single one I've entered. Because of that, I have picked up on a few things that you can do, and that I have done, to help you win awards in art competitions and potentially make money from them!

If you are still not sure if you want to enter an art contest, just for it because the worst that could happen is that you get more practice with your art and then don't win anything, but you never know what could happen! Like I said in the video, if you want me to answer more questions about contests or review a piece you are thinking of submitting, I would love to answer your questions!

Below, I have linked a list of art contests that you can enter online. Not all of these contests offer prize money, but many of them do and if you win an award in one of them, you could potentially make hundreds of dollars!

I have not entered all of these contests, but I made sure to only include ones that I know are easy to enter.

United States only contests:
• https://www.freedomfestival.org/event... - earn up to $500, grades k-12
• https://westgov.org/celebrate-the-west/ - Earn up to $1200, grades 10-12 - this contest is only for students in the western half of the United States. Check out this link if you want to see my winning entry from 2019: https://westgov.org/celebrate-the-wes...

International contests:
• https://bowseat.org/programs/ocean-aw... - win up to $1,500, ages 11-18
• https://www.artistsnetwork.com/art-co... - win up to $2500 - there's a teen competition and an adult competition.

Entering local contests is also a good idea because there is generally less competition and there can often be decent prize money, so I would recommend researching it more.
