    By Sarah Russell


    If you are a beginning artist, you will agree that establishing a fan base is pretty tough. With few galleries willing to display your work, you are only left with a few options. What many who face such challenges do not know, however, is that simply participating in an open online art competition can get you in the right footing for success.

    Firstly, the internet is prowled by billions of users every day. Most of the people browsing the web are not looking for anything specific. They are mostly keen to check out anything interesting they come across. Showcasing your artwork in a web based gallery connects you to the billions of potential fans who browse for leisure.

    As your visibility gets built by the internet, you may start getting offers from dealers, buyers and art representatives. Web based tournaments also get a lot of attention from critics and bloggers. These are the people who can really make your name known. As the web chatter surrounding your work starts to increase, other sites will pick up your artwork and advertise it for free, thereby turning you into a brand.

    One of the things that many artists struggle with is credibility. Luckily, this is something that you should get once you get a steady web of internet followers. With credibility, you stand a higher chance of getting accepted into other prestigious shows.

    It is a fact that only the creme de la creme of artists gain entry into prestigious shows. To get into this league, start by picking out a reputable competition that is open to all and enroll early. Also remember to pay attention to detail and follow the laid down instructions to the letter. Artists who abide by instructions are always considered professionals.

    While a typical tournament is bound to include lots of prizes to be won, money should not be your prime motivation. The single most significant thing to focus on is getting a global following for your future displays. Your first tournament ought to act as a stepping stone to your career.

    Some of the feedback given by jurors and critics may be scathing. However, you should learn to take criticism positively and build on the areas that face the most criticism. Also make comparisons with your peers so that you can rise as a team. The key to future success is objectivity.

    Internet artwork competitions are usually deadline driven. The good thing about working with deadlines is that it instills discipline in an artist. You get to learn how to make timely frame orders and shoot your photos on time all the while as you update your portfolio. Discipline is what inherently makes an artist complete even the most difficult pieces.

    Finally, the feeling of winning will certainly uplift your moods. Once you win, you will feel more confident and enroll for other competitions. There are several open web competitions held all through the year. When choosing what to participate in, avoid competitions that have many negative reviews.
