The Young Botanical Artist Competition is sponsored by Dr Shirley Sherwood in collaboration with the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.
Open to artists aged 16-25, The Young Botanical Artist Competition invites budding botanical artists to submit 2D botanical artworks depicting trees, leaves and anything that exists in between. This could be a leaf bud, a branch, a decaying leaf or a moss-coated trunk – any part, big or small, that inspires you!
We ask that works are:
- 2D
- Either A4, A3 or A2 (we do not accept any dimension in between these fixed sizes)
- Representative and in a botanical art style
The artist’s age on the deadline date – November 30th – should determine which age category they submit within.
Awards:-
There will be two categories: 16-18 and 19-25.
• Overall winner (1 per category): £750
• Highly commended (2 per category): £250
Deadline:- 30-11-2022
