Any artist under 30 years of age is eligible for the prize. We hope this prize will encourage students and recent graduates to enter the competition. <\/p>\n<p>The judges are looking for pieces that push at the boundaries of watercolour, promote water-based media at its most accomplished and ask audiences to see the medium in a new and contemporary light. The Royal Watercolour Society say that entering this competition is an ideal way of introducing your work to both the public and the society&#8217;s membership prior to the annual membership elections in late March.  Selected artwork will be included in a group exhibition at Bankside Gallery, situated next to Tate Modern on 4 \u2013 16 March 2016.<\/p>\n<p>This annual competition is open to all artists except Royal Watercolour Society members. This is the UK&#8217;s only major watercolour competition open to international artists. The Jackson\u2019s Young Artist Prize is only one of the many prizes offered. Entries are submitted digitally via the website. There is a fee for each image submitted but full-time students at recognised art schools and Watercolour Artist Friends can email info@banksidegallery.com for their free entry code. Check the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.royalwatercoloursociety.co.uk\/competition\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Contemporary Watercolour Competition<\/a> website for further details regarding entry requirements.<\/p>\n<p>The deadline to submit your entry is Monday 18th January 2016, 12 noon. A list of paintings selected for the exhibition will be published on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.royalwatercoloursociety.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Royal Watercolour Society\u2019s<\/a> website on Friday 29 January.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the prestige of winning the Jackson\u2019s Young Artist Prize the artist will be profiled in an article on the Jackson&#8217;s Art Blog and will also receive \u00a3500 in Jackson\u2019s Art vouchers to spend on the art materials they will need to continue in their career.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The winner of the Jackson\u2019s Young Artist Prize at the Royal Watercolour Society\u2019s annual Contemporary Watercolour Competition will be selected [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":595951,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[955],"tags":[26,227,155],"class_list":["post-595745","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artful-features","tag-artist","tag-opportunities","tag-watercolours"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
