Young Artist 2023

The theme for the 2022-23 competition is ‘Sunrise and Sunset’.

The competition aims to encourage young people to:

·            be creative

·            develop skills in using traditional or contemporary media

·            demonstrate interpretation of the topic

·            express personal ideas through a selected medium 

The competition is open to all schools and college communities and those who are home educated, along with any other young peoples’ community organisations, for example, community RotaKids, community Interact, Scout Groups, Girl Guides.

There are three age groups:

Junior:            Up to and including 10 years old

Intermediate:   11 to 13 years old

Senior:            14 to 17 years old

Entrants must not be over the upper age parameter for each group on 31 August 2022.

The task is to produce one finished 2-dimensional, up to a maximum size of A2, unframed, piece of artwork based upon the theme, ‘Sunrise and Sunset’

We welcome artwork in any medium. For example, pen and ink, paint, collage or printmaking.

To accompany the submission, each entrant must provide a brief sentence describing the relationship of the artwork to the theme.
