PRCA are delighted to announce the second Littlehampton Landscape Artists Of The Year, after the success of last year’s first ever competition.

Littlehampton Landscape Artist Of The Year

Your opportunity to paint against your contemporaries in our Landscape Artist Competition.

Over a series of weeks selected artists will be given an image in the gallery to paint (in their style to depict it)

Each week a winner be selected by a judge to proceed to our final.

Each heat will comprise of  artists battling it out to proceed to the final.

Last Year the public also selected a wildcard entry, which is also likely to be figured into this year.

There will also be a public vote from those attendees on the day. The session is live in the gallery between 10am – 4pm.

Finished work will be exhibited in the gallery, and for sale should the artist wish to sell it. Commission on the sale will be 25% of the total sale.

Artists will be provided with an image both printed and as a what’s app digital image for you to download should you require.

All artists will be expected to bring all their own materials and easels (any issues with easels please contact us, we do have three table-top easels available. Finished piece will remain the artists property but images may be used across the gallery’s social media.

Each entry costs £12 per person, this is an entry fee (it does not guarantee a space in the heats). Each application should be accompanied with a landscape image. These images will be used by the judges to determine who is selected for the heats.

Each heat will start at 10am and finish at 4pm. This makes it a strict timed event, and artists will need to be completed in that time. (Times varied last year, if all artists were ready before 10am)

The event will be a paid ticketed affair and customers will be able to pay for a morning or afternoon session or a full day to watch.

Please keep Sunday’s free in October 5th, 12th, 19th or 26th and  November 16th. You will be advised of dates for heats, please inform us of any Sunday you cannot attend. You are only required to be able to appear at one of the heats, the final is one date only. 

There will be mini videos and photographs of the event taken for social media use. Where time permits also a possible podcast with some of not all the artists for the gallery podcast (a good way to promote your work and yourself)
