Artists are invited to submit work for exhibition alongside members of the Royal Society of Portrait Painters at the RP Annual Exhibition 2024. The Royal Society of Portrait Painters invites artists from all over the world to submit portraits for its Annual Exhibition in 2024. Selected artists will have their work exhibited in a prestigious showcase at Mall Galleries, London, at which a number of works will sell and a number of commissions will be placed. Open Call submission deadline: Friday 26 January 2024, 12 noon. The total prize fund is £40,000, including The William Lock Portrait Prize (£20,000) and The Ondaatje Prize for Portraiture (£10,000). The Society welcomes paintings, drawings and original prints including digital/ipad prints from artists over 18, from the UK and internationally. Works should be based on a sitting or study of the human figure from life. We understand that artists may use photographs for assistance but the primary source should be from life. Submit your artwork via our user-friendly online submission portal (OESS): see Prospectus link below.
