The Queensland Figurative is a prestigious, non-acquisitive competition that invites Queensland artists to showcase their talent through paintings that thoughtfully integrate the human figure into their compositions. This is a unique brief and is an opportunity for artists to display their skills, and for the winner, the top prize of $10,000 to progress their career.
Dad at Home by Greg Jessup - First Prize in 2022 Queensland Figurative.
Aligned with the Royal Queensland Art Society's commitment to fostering young talent, the Young Artist Award (YAA) is an open competition for artists aged 30 and under.
