This 2023 competition is a new drawing and painting competition for children aged 7-18 years old to draw or paint their favourite animal, plant or fungi. The Nancy Rothwell Prize is now a sub-category for specimen drawings entered into this competition.
How to enter
The 2023 competition is now open for entries until 29th July 2023.
Each entrant can submit only one drawing or painting into the competition. The organisers encourage entrants to enter scans of their drawing or painting rather than photographs. Entrants should keep hold of their original drawing or painting as this may be requested at a later date.
Images should be submitted as a high resolution JPEG file Photographs and poor quality scans will not be accepted. Each entrant may only submit one image to the competition
There are no restrictions on the type of drawing, painting or specimen drawing that you
create, but you must include information on the subject you are drawing, and if your
observation is from a microscope, you must include the model and magnification
Entrants should keep hold of their original drawings as these may be requested at a later
date.
Eligibility
The competition is free to enter and is open to Royal Society of Biology members and nonmembers from around the world. Entrants must not be professional artists. For the purposes of
this competition, a professional artist will be considered to be someone who makes more than
half their annual income from the sale of their drawings.

a winner (£50 for the student) to be awarded to a young person from anywhere in the World
a UK based winner (£50 for the student) to be awarded to enable this competition to recognise the artwork of children living in the UK

a winner of the new Nancy Rothwell Prize 2023 (£50 for the student) to be awarded as a specific named specimen drawing prize (The Nancy Rothwell Prize 2023) to recognise specimen drawing in schools and to highlight the benefits of combining art and science
