About the event

Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.” ~Pablo Picasso

Fusion Art invites submissions for the 8th Annual Colors art competition for an online exhibition during the month of May 2024.

For this competition, both 2D and 3D artists, worldwide, are invited to submit their best art and photography using a concentration of colors. One color or a multitude of colors meets the criteria for this competition.

This is an international open (no theme) competition so any subject matter and any media are acceptable. All artists, regardless of location or experience, are encouraged to submit their best representational and/or abstract work in any medium.
