              Artists of the Year 2015: Call for entries now open

              The search is on for fresh, undiscovered artistic talent! Submit your latest masterpiece for the chance to win £10,000 worth of prizes in Artists & Illustrators magazine’s annual competition.

              Now in its eighth year, the 2015 prizes are bigger and better than ever – with more chances to win and even greater exposure for your art.

              The overall winner of this year’s competition will receive a £1,000 cash prize and gallery representation from London’s Panter & Hall with the chance to work towards your own solo exhibition.


              2014 winner Camlla Dowse

              50 shortlisted artworks will also be displayed at a special exhibition held at Mall Galleries, London SW1, from 22-27 February 2016. An exclusive awards evening will see more than £9,000 worth of extra prizes distributed, giving you even more chances to win art vouchers, courses, materials and more.

              Submissions close at midday on 10 September 2015. A shortlist of artworks will be drawn up by our panel of judges, which includes Tiffany Hall of Panter & Hall and Artists & Illustrators editor Steve Pill. Readers will then have the chance to vote for their favourite shortlisted works online.

              For more information about Artists of the Year 2015, including how to enter, visit www.artistsandillustrators.co.uk/2015.
