    The cumberland pencil company is delighted to announce its second Derwent Art Prize, open to British and international artists for works created in pencil.

    The aim of the Prize, which in its inaugural year attracted over 3,500 entries from 67 countries worldwide, is to reward excellence through showcasing the very best international works created in this versatile medium.

    The works entered must be created in pencil (including water-soluble, pastel, graphite, charcoal or colouring pencils). The work must not exceed 182cms in its greatest dimension. There is no minimum size limit.

    The Prize is open to both 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional works. All entered work must have been completed within the last 3 years. The work selected for exhibition must be available from 1st September 2014 to January 2015.

    Copyright of all works remains the property of the artist.

    There is an entry fee of £15 (approx. 25 USD) application fee for the first work and £5 per additional works.

    Eligibility


    The Prize is open to all living British and international artists over the age of 18 years old on 9th June 2014.
