Navigating Open Art Calls can be overwhelming, I have been there!—where do you find them, how do you stand out, what happens if you don’t get selected? what happens if you get selected? It would be great to help you on your journey.
As of February 2025 I have participated in and had my artworks selected for 37 Open Art Calls both in my homeland UK and Internationally. (View my CV Here)
I created this guide as people have been finding my art educational Youtube videos to be insightful and wanted to learn more. Plus I have learned a lot from experience from trial and error.
