RWS / Sunday Times Watercolour Competition

The most prestigious annual watercolour event (previously the Singer and Friedlander/Sunday Times Watercolour Competition) is one of the few remaining prizes to celebrate the diversity and beauty of the frequently undervalued medium of watercolour. The result is a visual feast of dynamic and challenging paintings.

The RWS/Sunday Times Watercolour Competition invites artists to submit works to the 2008 competition.

The competition, now in its 21st year, is the largest watercolour competition in the UK and is one of the only remaining prizes to celebrate the diversity and beauty of the frequently undervalued medium of watercolour. The RWS/ Sunday Times Watercolour Competition is a celebration of the water-soluble medium, whether it is an abstract, figurative or landscape piece, all works produced in water based mediums, watercolour, acrylic and gouache on a paper support are eligible.

The RWS/Sunday Times Watercolour Competition offers the highest valued prizes in the United Kingdom by awarding a total of 25,000 to artists who demonstrate a high level of skill and creativity.
