RANG Juried Art Competition: TERAVARNA India’s New Colouring Competition with Oil Pastels

As kids, we used to play a game called colourman, remember? Most of us were fond of crayons, and even after growing up, we would stick to pastels while our creations became more complex and vivid. So, oil pastels were our colour mates since the very beginning. They are easy and fun to use, being less messy unlike watercolours or acrylics, offering a vast spectrum of hues to work with.

“Rang” or colour plays a significant role in our lives. Whether cool colours or warm colours, we make our own comfort palettes, even unknowingly.

TERAVARNA India, the contemporary art platform, invites artists to showcase their rare skills in its unique colouring competition with pastels and crayons. If you are an Indian artist painting in pastels, it’s time to show your passion to the world.

You choose your own themes. We choose the mediums. Together we can make this event a kaleidoscope of hues and shades. Let’s include all the hues that nature has gifted us. We are waiting to see your pastel perfections!

Are you ready to make your rainbow shine on this vibrant art contest for money? Grab your crayons and pastel boxes, and let the magic unfold before your eyes! Do not miss this one-of-its-kind digital art contest to earn cash rewards, fame, and recognition!

Eligibility

Open to artists aged 16 years and above. Entries from younger talents will be celebrated separately in our upcoming Junior Art Competition.

So, are you excited to take our next creative call — to show your colour frenzy like Van Gogh or Matisse? Enrol your name for the upcoming RANG Juried Art Competition 2025, and let your crayons, oil pastels, and soft pastels speak for you.

Still Not Convinced if TERAVARNA India’s Colouring Competition is Here to Splash More ‘RANG’ into Your Life?

Let us convince you otherwise!

Even if you are not that crazy, you can definitely impress us with your authentic works on oil pastels, crayons, and soft pastels in our upcoming digital art contest.

Capture and curate your world of emotions while joining us in our RANG Juried Art Competition 2025 by TERAVARNA India, one of the celebrated art contests with cash prizes. This is your moment to paint your happiness, anguishes, joy, and hope on canvas — and the rewards are no less BIG!

Yes, there is no limit to how you make a blank canvas look gorgeous! We have no restriction on themes, so embrace your ideas and concepts; learn from the masters, capture the delicate hues and rich textures until they fill every corner of your art space — let your colours tell amazing stories. We are all ears!

Explore TERAVARNA India’s platform to take your art beyond the four walls and cross all creative boundaries. Join this celebration of ‘Rang’ — as India is a land of myriad hues and shades expressed through diverse cultures and customs.

If you like to think 'out-of-the-box' but do not have the right stage to share your talent — let TERAVARNA India nurture your thoughts and ideas unlike other art contests with cash prizes. Everyone’s invited to this colourful journey — experienced, mid-career, and budding painters.
