You know there's another way to look at these silly awards and modern competitions-just enter them with some "pre-breakfast efforts" and see what happens. Apart from the politics that is nearly always present these tend to be little artist lotteries anyway...buy a ticket and see what happens!

Just once I'd like to see someone presented a big award and hear the winning artist say,"I'm glad 3 people liked one of my paintings." That's all most awards come down to anyway.

One year the artist that won the Arts for the Parks Grand Prize said (I swear)..."I'm so happy to win this, this was only my third painting I've ever painted!" So buy a ticket and see what happens.
