Competition

“One singular sensation" what a great song. This call is about images with a single compelling focal point.  It could be a person or thing that is alone in the frame or an element of a large grouping that clearly stands out.  A field of lilacs with a single bright red rose would fit the bill as would a portrait reminiscent of Andrew Wyeth's "Christina's World", and the single shell on a vast beach. Using selective focus you can isolate a single pedestrian from the crowd on a city street.  What about that track runner clearly in front of the pack or the prematurely leafless tree amidst a forest of foliage?  Once again, the possibilities are endless out there - let's see how you capture them.

The PleinAir Salon Art Competition is a monthly online art competition that awards over $50,000 each year. There is over $2,000 in Cash Prizes awarded each month, and $22,000 awarded at the Annual Competition each May. Each of the 23 monthly winners are included in the judging for the 13th Annual PleinAir Salon where we award the Grand Prize winner a check for $15,000 and feature their painting on the cover of PleinAir Magazine. The Annual Awards will be presented live at the Plein Air Convention & Expo in May 2024.
