Ten Moir Gallery invites artists and photographers worldwide to submit work to our monthly online art challenges. Each theme offers artists a chance to share meaningful work, receive recognition, and be featured in a curated online showcase. The first entry is free during the early entry period.

Some artwork begins with a question. Some begins with color, memory, pressure, beauty, grief, joy, or a feeling that cannot quite be explained.

Ten Moir Gallery’s Monthly Art Challenges are designed for artists who are actively creating, experimenting, and looking for thoughtful ways to share their work with a wider audience. Each challenge centers around a clear theme, giving artists and photographers an opportunity to submit work that reflects their voice, perspective, and creative direction.

These online challenges are open to emerging and established artists worldwide, ages 18 and older. We welcome a wide range of visual art, including painting, drawing, photography, digital art, mixed media, collage, sculpture, and other 2D and 3D works. Selected artists are featured in a curated online collection with their artist name, artwork title, and website or portfolio link included.

Top selections may receive cash awards, artist interviews, homepage features, mini spotlight features, social media promotion, digital certificates, and additional visibility through Ten Moir Gallery’s online platforms. The Best in Show award for monthly challenges includes a $150 cash award, an artist interview, a mini spotlight feature, homepage feature, and a free Blue Sky Artist Award entry.

Our challenges are created to be accessible, low-pressure, and meaningful. Artists may submit their first artwork for free during the listed free entry window, with the option to add additional images within the same application.

Whether your work is abstract, representational, emotional, experimental, quiet, bold, or deeply personal, this is an opportunity to place your artwork into a curated context and connect with a global audience.
