Why Open Calls for Artists Are the Gateway to Global Recognition

  You've likely heard the word open call for artists a thousand times in the online art world. It's seen in Instagram captions, artist Facebook groups, and gallery newsletters, and typically comes with a deadline and a link. But what does it really mean, and why is it one of the most-discussed avenues for emerging and established artists? For most artists, the usual avenues of success, like the traditional routes, can be a closed loop, and, with everything digital these days, an open call for art is a great way to get out into the world. Let's discuss more about these open calls in brief.  What Exactly is an Open Call? Invitations open for entries are basically for young, talented artists. When an art gallery, museum, art fair, or competition invites people to submit art, they’re doing so because they want to show the art, publish it, give it a prize, or give it room.

Paint Your Delicate Blossoms with TERAVARNA’s Flower Art Competition

 Soft and delicate, the beauty of flowers captivates us all. From white blossoms that smitten us with their purity to exotic black roses, flowers have been part of paintings since time immemorial. Paint them pink, red or yellow, with TERAVARNA’s 11th International FLOWER Art Competition, your participation matters the most! Gear up with your art supplies and dive into the fun of painting beautiful flowers by capturing their unrivalled grace and exquisite charm. In this blog, we will share with you some essential tips for acing the flower art contest and explore why you should not miss out on this global opportunity. Stay tuned!

Paint Your Flower Artwork in Three Simple Steps:

1.      Create a Basic Outline: Before you sketch your flower art, try to figure out its basic shape. Does the outline share a similarity with a simpler object? Planning your flower artwork step by step, from its basic framework to the final details, is an ideal way to progress in your art journey.

2.     Add Light and Shadow: The importance of light and shadow in an artwork needs no explanation. If you are skipping this essential step and aiming for precision, you are missing a vital part of the art process. To add depth and realism, the study of light and shadow is very important. Watch out for the source of light, the shadow areas, and the highlights before jumping into the details.

3.     Embellish with Details: In the final stage of painting flowers, add small dots, jagged lines and other textures to breathe life into your flowers. If you are aiming to create realistic flowers, capturing the details with precision matters the most!

Tips To Paint Your Floral Beauties

Flowers as Reference: Using fresh flowers as a reference is ideal for painting them life-like, in their most natural state. However, since blossoms run the risk of decay, as an artist, you might consider printing out your source beforehand, which can be used later to add more details.

Determining the Focal Point: The role of composition in an artwork is non-negotiable, and a viewfinder often comes to the rescue when trying to determine the focal point of an artwork. Go for a composition that looks balanced and beautiful. Follow the Rule of Thirds to make your preferred focal point more visible.

Creating Flower Paintings with a Stroke: If you are willing to try something relatively easy, lather your paintbrush with two acrylic colors before gently dragging it against black paper to emulate a petal. Now, in a similar fashion, paint other petals and leaves in a single brush stroke to create stunning flower artwork. With this easy hack and essential tip, you can quicken your painting journey.

Choose the Right Brush: Painting petals might be a challenge, as with a regular paintbrush, it might turn out to be stiff and flat. In case you are wondering how to glide your paintbrush to create picture-perfect petals, it's ideal to come across the right brush shape for your flower art paintings. You will be amazed to see how these brushes are more convenient or easier to work with, delivering better results in less time. For soft and rounded petals, a tapered brush might be a good choice. On the other hand, the firmness of a wedge brush can help you create structured strokes in flowers like orchids or lilies.
