ANSWERS.
 
What is different about the art prize this year?
                ​Importantly, we have a new judging panel with additional members. You can see the panel here: http://www.artprize.co.uk/the-prize.html/#judges
We are able to give bigger prizes now thanks to the sponsors and the new sponsors, Fujifilm and Genesis Imaging, and there are additional prizes for photography, sculpture and new media.
We also have a continually growing audience to show your entries to, on Facebook and Twitter and Instagram (now over 12k of followers!).
 
Should I enter again with the same artworks?
                We would recommend entering new artworks in addition to including one or two of the same artworks. Many of the entrants weren’t successful last year because of the submission texts (usually not enough content) and quality of the photos, rather than the artworks themselves, so its important to find ways to improve your submission in any case. Also note that the artworks will be seen with new eyes as we have several new judges as well as new prizes. You can now also specify on the entry form which judges you would like your work to be seen by.
 
How is the judging panel different this year?
                We have a rotating panel of new judges, this year we have Tim Sayer, renowned art collector that recently bequeathed his collection to Hepworth Wakefield museum, and Josh McNorton, Head of Programmes at Rich Mix London who has expertise with new media and artists that use technology in their practice.
                When you complete your entry form, check carefully which judges you would like to be seen by, as this can help you get noticed more and also they may want to keep you in mind for their future projects.
 
If I was shortlisted, can I still be shortlisted again in this year?
                Yes you can, though it would have to be with different artworks. Shortlisted artists in previous years' prizes gained great attention with some being approached by galleries (for example, we saw one artist represented at London Art Fair in January 2016), dealers and even other art prizes (several artists made it into shortlists for other prizes or even won a prize).
 
What tips can you give to help me with my submission?
                If you entered in previous years and asked for feedback, you will have got some great tips written by the team and emailed to you, regarding your specific submission. You can read more of our tips in our blog here: http://www.artprize.co.uk/blog/how-to-win-an-art-prize .
We can also recommend an art expert to help you with the prize submission, you can contact us for their details and how much it costs, by emailing us at artprize@oaktreeandtiger.com
 
What tips can you give me to benefit from entering the art prize again?
                We will show some of your artworks submitted on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn. Follow us, then share and like with your friends and family, and encourage them to support you with comments. You should reply to their comments too as this will get a lot of people seeing your art on these channels.
                Attending the free events we are organising is also a great way to learn useful tips and answer questions, while meeting the team, art professionals and other artists to collaborate/learn with.
 
Feel free to comment below or email us with any questions. Good luck!
