Artists of all backgrounds and styles are invited to showcase their talents in the upcoming Kyneton Daffodil Festival and Arts Prize. With a diverse range of categories, there’s a section for every artist to shine.
This year organisers have increased their prize pools, with more than $2000 worth of prizes.
The prestigious title of the ‘Daffodil Prize’ will be awarded to the artist who fully captures the essence of these beautiful flowers.
The winner will not only earn the title but also take home a generous prize of $1000. Any artwork that has a theme of daffodils will be automatically entered into the major prize, all other prizes are open themed.
For those who love the art of watercolour, the Esther Rose Memorial Watercolour Prize is the perfect opportunity to display their mastery. Oil and acrylic painters can impress the judges in their respective categories, each offering a tempting prize of $250.
The Works on Paper and any Other Medium/Sculpture categories each come with a $250 prize.
The Photography Prize seeks captivating images that tell a story, with a $250 prize for the winner.
