Color Speaks Louder Than Words: Know Why
Colors help us to communicate with the world outside on a primary level. Before we ever learn to read, speak, or write, we learn to see. Even a child can understand certain color symbolism like the color red refers to them as STOP and green as GO. Most of us associate green with growth, yellow with energy, black with mystery, and white with purity. But there is a much wider spectrum of colors beyond these collective associations. Artists often interpret hues uniquely, according to their social standing and perception of the world—and that’s where the magic of color artistry lies.
When words fall short, art in color steps in.
Colors work to bridge emotional gaps, inviting viewers to feel what cannot be expressed through words. No matter if it is an abstract work, a figurative painting, or working with mixed media, a color painting evokes an array of emotions like joy, grief, nostalgia, or curiosity—without ever uttering a word.

What We’re Looking for Art in Color
We are open to entries that celebrate the art in color in all its forms. No matter if you are working in oil, acrylic, or digital media, or a mixed media creator pushing boundaries—we want to see how you interpret colors in your compositions.
We want to show how your artwork -
- uses color to create a unique narrative
- creates an emotional burst through transitions
- pushes the limits of traditional color theory
- reworks the iconic palettes or invents your own
- celebrates the sensory impact of pure color
The thing is that, we want your work to contain more than colors—it should contain the emotions behind the colors.
Tips for Submitting Compelling Works
Whenever you think of entering our color contest, consider these ways to make your color artwork stand out:
Choice of Palette Matters
Use your palette with an intention, if you are looking for complementary hues or subtle gradients. Each hue should support your emotion or concept.
Think Emotionally, Not Literally
Painting with a color isn’t enough – go beyond that. Use the blue of the sky to say something. Let colors stand in for thoughts, feelings, or voices otherwise left unsaid.
Breaking Myths & Rules (If You Must)
You must follow color theory, but you know art evolves when you challenge norms. Create your own balance between dream and reality, peace and unrest.
Think in Texture and Medium
The application process also determines the fate of color – whether you apply a thick impasto stroke or prefer translucent washes, or crisp digital lines—that adds emotional depth to your color painting.
Give Suitable Titles
If your artwork speaks without words, you must need a powerful title to frame your message and add resonance to your story.
Why Enter?
Not only the color art contest offers a global exposure, but also offers:
- A rare chance to be featured in the online gallery space curated by TERAVARNA
