2017 Savvy Art Competition
Call for Entries:
Savvy Painter, Trekell Art Supplies, and Gamblin Artist’s Colors have teamed up to bring you our first online juried show.
We don’t want this to be just another online juried show for you. So we thought about what would most benefit the artists who participate. That’s why we chose prizes that will make an impact:
The Savvy Painter Podcast is the premier podcast for painters and collectors. It has been downloaded over a million times in 153 countries. The first place winner gets an interview on the podcast! You have a full episode to share your work with the world. It is an exceptional format to tell galleries and your collectors about your painting experiences.
Winners also receive a generous gift card ($750 in total!) that can be used at Trekell.com where you can stock up on high quality brushes and panels.
To compliment that, Gamblin Artist's Colors will send first, second and third prize winners Gamblin Merchandise Awards for $500, $150 and $100!
Lastly, because, let’s face it, who couldn’t use a bit of cold hard cash, we threw some of that into the pot as well!
So if you win first prize, you get your work in front of tens of thousands of people, $1000 worth of art supplies to paint to your heart’s content, and some cold hard cash to buy your favorite collector a bottle of wine (Savvy Painters know to be generous!).
The winning artists plus artists who receive honorable mentions will be included in the online gallery.
