Contemporary Art Gallery Online is proud to announce its 12th Annual “ALL Botanical” theme Online Art Competition for 2026.
Open Call for Artists – Botanical Art Competition (2D & 3D)
Contemporary Art Gallery Online invites artists worldwide to apply for its Botanical Art Competition, an open call for artists working in both 2D and 3D media. This international competition welcomes participants of all experience levels, regardless of background, education, or location.
Artists are encouraged to submit their best representational or non-representational artwork inspired by the “All Botanical” theme, including subjects such as flowers, plants, leaves, herbs, and other floral elements.
All accepted entries will be included in a four-week online group exhibition hosted by Contemporary Art Gallery Online following the close of the competition.
Submissions will be evaluated across the following categories:
- Paintings & Drawings
- Photography & Digital Art
- Mixed Media
- 3D Work
Artists must disclose any computer-enhanced or AI-generated elements. AI-assisted works are not eligible for the Paintings & Drawings category.
This competition offers artists an opportunity to gain international exposure and present their botanical-themed work in a curated online exhibition.
Awards will be given to the top 6 to 8 works selected in each category (depending on the number of submissions), including Best in Show, Judges’ Choice, and Gallery Choice. Additional awards will also be presented, depending on the number and the quality of all submissions received. Award-winning artists will be included in a group show both online and in the Ramsey Art Gallery located in the Historic District of Hollins Market, located in Baltimore, Maryland.
