The National Portrait Gallery is inviting entries for the BP Portrait Award 2018, the largest global art competition with a first prize up for grabs worth £35,000.
To enter, artists are encouraged to upload a photo of their finished painting to the BP Portrait Award website, which will be viewed anonymously by the judges in the first round of the contest. Entrants who are successful in this initial stage will then be invited to hand-deliver or courier their work to a venue in London for the second round of judging and final exhibition selection.
Artists can enter at npg.org.uk/bp between now and 22 January 2018. Full competition rules and guidance for digital submission can be found online. The BP Portrait Award 2018 exhibition will then run at the National Portrait Gallery from 14 June to 23 September 2018.
Enter today at npg.org.uk/bp. Deadline for submissions is 22 January 2018. Good luck!
