Note: Your time is running out to enter the PleinAir Salon monthly art competition and have a chance to win $15,000 cash.
This is the story of how a losing painting won!
Jim McVicker had a painting he knew was a winner, but he entered it in the PleinAir Salon art competition and it didn’t win. For a moment, it was a losing painting. So he entered it again. Still no success.
Jim believed in his painting, so he entered it once again.
Finally, after those rejections, one of the judges of the PleinAir Salon recognized Jim’s talent and chose his as the best painting for one of the categories.
That meant Jim was automatically entered into the annual judging.
Then the winners from every category in every monthly competition were in the running for the annual prize. Jim’s painting won first place.
But that’s not all he won. His winning artwork was also featured on the cover of PleinAir magazine (just like all of our Salon grand prize winners!) Just think what that could do for your art career.
The Secrets to Winning
Time and time again, past winners of the PleinAir Salon tell us that the secret to winning is to …
• Keep entering the same painting. What one judge dislikes, another will like.
• Enter as many categories as possible.
• Enter as many paintings as possible.
It really is that simple.

1. Take a photo of your paintings
