16th Annual "Nature" Online Art Competition

The Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery is calling for entries to its 16th Annual "Nature" Online Art Competition. The theme invites artists to interpret and depict nature—geographical subjects, landscapes, natural objects, wildlife and natural environments—in any media. The competition is open to international 2D and 3D artists, including photography, but excludes video. Applicants must be 18 years or older, submit original works that have not previously appeared on the LST website, and adhere to the gallery’s content guidelines (no graphic sexual violence, nude art only in good taste).\n\nSubmissions are accepted via the LST online platform (Submittable). The deadline is October 30, 2026. The entry fee is $18.00 for 1–2 entries and $26.00 for 3–5 entries, with an early‑registration discount of $16.00 and $24.00 respectively until the beginning of the second month.\n\nJudging will be conducted by a panel of jurors, and 12 winning artists will be selected overall. Awards include 1st–12th places per media category, honorable mentions, special merit and recognition awards, and a Best in Show winner who receives a $100 cash prize. All selected works will be exhibited in the gallery’s December 2026 online group exhibition.\n\nThe competition offers artists exposure through a global online exhibition and a modest cash prize, but no travel or housing support is provided.
