The Monthly Art Comp is seeking competitors using both traditional and digital art media to take part in its monthly competition. An entrance fee of US$2 applies. The winners of each category receive half of the total entrance fees for that category each week - therefore, if there are 10 entrants, the prize pool is $10; if there are 5000 entrants, the prize pool is $5000. Each week entrants are professionally judged based on their relevance to the chosen category, aesthetic appeal and technical skills displayed.

Entering the competition
- contestants may enter the Monthly Art Comp as many times as they wish, in as many categories as they wish each week. Each entry will incur a $2 entry fee.

Judging
- submissions will be judged by judges with industry recognised experience.
- all submissions will be judged on the following criteria:

Relevance to the selected category
How well does the artwork conform to the category it has been entered into? This is to ensure that a digital painting will not win the traditional category.
Technical skill
How well has the artist displayed their knowledge of composition, colour, technique, anatomy, etc?
Aesthetic value
Is the artwork visually appealing?

Running of the competition
- categories will be judged when there is a minimum of ten entries. If the minimum has not been reached for a particular week, all entries from that week will be rolled over into the next week's contest.
- Weekly Art Comp reserves the right to extend the length of any competition. In such an event, notification will be posted prior on the website.
